Thank you for you insightful thoughts. Actually i was trying to analyze Bangladeshi political system through en engineering viewpoint. Despite numerous prophecies about an impending doom of the current government, the ruling party has continued to hold power for 13 straight years. I wanted to analyze why this is the case whereas no other government in this country that came previously could barely last beyond two terms. My main thesis was that the government succeeded in holding their power due to insulating and developing socio-political systems unlike its predecessors who failed to do so. There are some significant socio-political systems whose overall health determines the political trajectory of a country. I tried to figure out these factors out and also borrowed some specific examples to justify my findings. These factors can be capitalized by oppositions to deplatform a ruling party from state power, a practice which the current government was also engaged in when they were in the opposition power previously. The stakeholders in this narrative are the political parties whereas the people are the tool for them to rise to state power. People have always been a tool for political parties to exchange power, but to exploit them for power practices require a carefully designed systematic approach. Observing the condition of these socio-political systems can paint a picture of the political trajectory of nascent democracies that rely on muscle power.
