Introduction:
Bangladesh is a developing country which could not still developed yet like Singapore,
Malaysia, Sri-Lanka and other small countries like her. The reasons for still being
backwards is the social problems our country is still facing in this modern era. People are
still not aware or do not care to change the social problems to step forward throwing out
the social problems. More countries are changing on their own to build a better future for
them but Bangladesh is still in the old age social problems which will be discussed.
Now a days the form of providing and receiving dowry is being modernized. Mostly
common in the rural area in Bangladesh. Dowry system is another curse. It has become
a blockage to overall socio-cultural development in Bangladesh. The Dowry system in
Bangladesh refers to the durable goods, cash, and real or movable property that the
bride's family gives to the bridegroom, his parents, or his relatives as a condition of the
marriage. Women in Bangladesh are great victims of dowry system in our society.
Bribery:
Whenever anyone goes for any sort of official works, he or she has to pay bribery for any
kind of works. It seems nothing is possible in Bangladesh. Corruption by sector. Bribery,
rent-seeking and inappropriate use of government funds, excessive lobbying, long time
delays in service performance, pilferage, irresponsible conduct from the government
officials, bureaucratic intemperance have made public sector departments the most
corrupt sectors of Bangladesh.
Illiteracy:
Literacy rate of our country is low. On a few percentage of people are well-educated and
hinders the socio-economic development like nothing other. Senior educationists have
blamed faulty planning, lack of financing and social stigma as challenges in
eliminating illiteracy while government officials attributed poverty for the situation. The
government statistics also show that there are differences in the literacy rates between
rural and urban areas. Illiteracy problem is the major social problem in Bangladesh.
Through meshing/engaging with different culture is very much important. But our society
has been adopted the evil things from western cultures which has been creating blockage.
Nowadays mostly young generation or teenage children are blindly attracted and
following the evil things from the western culture and not educated to use the culture in a
good way so that they can’t get spoiled. The western culture influence is distracting and
destroying the youth where they are addicted in porn, nudity and drugs.
Backwards in attitude:
Often any one can find some bold/daring people to face such problems. Everyone just
commoners/joint about the worst condition. But barely any one to solve it. Bangladeshis
still don’t know to use a good attitude and while trying to show they show up a backward
attitude which is not acceptable in the society.
Child labor:
Child labor in Bangladesh is common, with 4.8 million or 12.6% of children aged 5 to 14
in the work force. Out of the child laborers engaged in the work force, 83% are employed
in rural areas and 17% are employed in urban areas. Child labor can be found in
agriculture, poultry breeding, fish processing, the garment sector and the leather industry,
as well as in shoe production. Children are involved in jute processing, the production of
candles, soap and furniture. They work in the salt industry, the production of asbestos,
bitumen, tiles and ship breaking. In 2006, Bangladesh passed a Labor Law setting the
minimum legal age for employment as 14.Nevertheless, the enforcement of such labor
laws is virtually impossible in Bangladesh because 93% of child laborers are employed in
the informal sector such as small factories and workshops, on the street, in home-based
businesses and domestic employment.
Arsenic:
Unemployment:
Due to the opportunity or security of job, the unemployment rate of our country is very
high. And this rate is raising day by day. It is very tough for a country to develop its
economy by keeping idle the large portion of human resources. Some of the very common
causes of unemployment in Bangladesh and other developing economies are
the technological changes, contribution of women in labor force, demographic structure,
economic conditions, production of electricity (especially in Bangladesh), immigration
from rural area's towards towns and cities.
Housing problem:
In our country 60% people are land less due to various reason. This people have no
shelter and no living place. So new slum is growing in the city day by day. This slum living
people are the contributor of crime and new hazard in the society.
Gender inequality:
In our society male and female are not treated as alike or equal. Because people always
think women are only for household work and give birth the child. They are only for
household work and they need not to go out for economic activities or income earning
activities. So they are not getting their fundamental rights properly.
Woman are not always save everywhere in our country and their working place. Woman
empowerment is must for a countries development. But while government encourages
everyone for women empowerment the society still do not care and don’t assure safety
for women.
Population problem:
Bangladesh is an over populated country. 1800 people are living per square kilo miter.
So agriculture land is reducing every year. This over population creates so many social
problem like Trans port, education, corruption and so many others.
Environmental Problem:
Bangladesh is a coastal belt country. Every year natural disaster destroy crops and
animal and natural resources. It is a great problem for the country.
Child marriage:
It is the common phenomena in our country especially in the rural area. And for the reason
is girl child's security. So lack of awareness and poverty the village people give marriage
their girl child at an early age. This problem creates another family and health problem in
the country.
Conclusion:
There are so many problems in the Bangladesh society like: Lack of Education Woman
and Child trafficking/handling. Lack of cultural difference and devotion/ commitment. Air
pollution. High rate of Child and Maternal Mortality. Social Stigma/ Dishonor. So
Development expert, social researcher and development funding agencies are telling
Bangladesh its self is a great problem. If Bangladesh do not come out of these social
problems then the future of our country will be doomed.

On the south is a highly irregular deltaic coastline of about 600 kilometers, fissured/ split
by many rivers and streams flowing into the Bay of Bengal.

Answer to the question number: 6
Bangladesh is a country where is social stratification is alive and still active. The social
stratification in Bangladesh is explained below-
Society in Bangladesh in the 1980s, with the exception of the Hindu caste system, was
not rigidly stratified. Rather, it was open, fluid /liquid, and diffused/wordy, without a
cohesive/ consistent social organization and social structure. Social class
distinctions/division were mostly functional, however, and there was considerable mobility
among classes. Even the structure of the Hindu caste system in Bangladesh was
relatively loose because most Hindus belonged to the lower castes.
Ostensibly/ apparently, egalitarian/ classless principles of Islam were the basis of social
organization. Although several hierarchically arranged groups—such as the Syeds (noble
born) and the sheikhs (also noble born)--were noticeable in Bangladesh Muslim society,
there were no impenetrable/ solid hereditary/ inherited social distinctions. Rather, fairly
permeable/enterable classes based on wealth and political influence existed both in the
cities and in the villages. Traditional Muslim class distinctions had little importance in
Bangladesh.
The proscription/ veto against marriage between individuals of high-born and low-born
families, once an indicator of the social gap between the two groups, had long ago
disappeared/ vanished; most matrimonial alliances were based on wealth and power and
not on the ties of family distinction. Also, many so-called upper-class families, because of
their traditional use of the Urdu language, had become alienated in independent
Bangladesh. Although Hindu society used to be formally stratified into caste categories,
caste did not figure prominently in the Bangladeshi Hindu community.
About 75 percent of the Hindus in Bangladesh belonged to the lower castes, notably
namasudras (lesser cultivators), and the remainder belonged primarily to outcaste or
untouchable groups. Some members of higher castes belonged to the middle or
professional class, but there was no Hindu upper class. With the increasing participation
of the Hindus in nontraditional professional mobility, the castes were able to interact in
wider political and socioeconomic arenas, which caused some erosion of caste
consciousness. Bangladeshi Hindus however have deteriorated in numbers from 22% in
1951 to about 9% in 2011 due to widespread oppression of the Muslim community and
the common suffering have added to the unification of the different castes.

b. Greater autonomy was the privilege of the rich or the necessity of the very poor.
Separation of Powers
The separation of powers is a representation for the governance of a state. Under this
model, a state's government is divided into branches, each with separate, independent
powers and responsibilities so the powers of one branch are not in conflict with those of
the other branches. The typical division is into three branches: a legislature, an
executive, and a judiciary, which is the trias politica model. It can be contrasted with the
fusion in parliamentary and semi president systems, where the executive and legislative
branches overlap.
Separation of powers, therefore, refers to the division of responsibilities into
distinct branches of government by limiting any one branch from exercising the core
functions of another. The intent of separation of powers is to prevent the concentration
of power by providing for checks and balances
The separation of powers model is often imprecisely and mitotically used
interchangeably with the trias politica principle. While the trias politica model is a
common type of separation, there are governments that have greater or fewer than
three branches.
