Dear Dr. ZAFARULLAH, My apologies for contacting you out of the blue during this busy summer season. My name is Tristan Grunow, and I am a board member and Digital Media Editor at Critical Asian Studies, where I edit and publish the CAS Commentary Board as well as promote recent work published by the journal. Towards that end, I am contacting you on the behalf of one of our recent authors to bring to your attention an article that was just published: “Discipline, Development, and Duress: The Art of Winning an Election in Bangladesh,” by Mathilde Maîtrot of University of Bath and David Jackman of University of Oxford. The article is available open-access, so please use this link to access the article. Thank you, and I hope you find the article engaging. Please let me know if you have any comments or questions, and please keep in mind the CAS Commentary Board for any future editorials on issues in the news or confronting Asian Studies as a field. Tristan
