Rajnitir Abhidhan by Sourendra Mohan Gangopadhyay [Hardcover]

The Bengali language has a vast variety of compiled dictionaries, ranging from simple word-based lexicons to specialized ones such as those dedicated to the world of cinema. However, the political dictionary is a first of its kind. The daily life of a Bengali today is surrounded by various political spheres. Whether consciously or unconsciously, willingly or unwillingly, we are constantly touching politics. In short, the influence of politics has become inevitable in our lives. Therefore, this political dictionary is not just useful, but necessary at this moment in time. It serves as a crucial guide and assistant. This dictionary compiles over four hundred highly relevant and carefully selected political terms. These are words whose correct definitions, theories, evolution, applications, and more, need to be understood. What does intra-party democracy mean? What is the role of the Rajya Sabha in a parliamentary democracy? What are the exact meanings of terms like bourgeois, Harijan, fascism, liberalism, socialism, and Cold War? What were the movements like Khilafat, Bhudan, and Tebhaga, and what contexts and times did they relate to? This dictionary also includes updated information and definitions closely related to politics, along with terms from philosophy, history, and economics. It briefly touches upon the thoughts and ideas of a limited number of political philosophers. Politics is an extremely sensitive subject, so the compiler has emphasized neutrality while selecting words. This unique dictionary will fulfill the needs of general readers, students, and curious specialists alike.
