Dr Anirban Ganguly observed that Seeds of Hate: Bangladesh’s Extremist Surge is a rigorously documented, non-rhetorical compendium on Islamist organizations whose ideological foundations and institutional reach are already reshaping Bangladesh’s political future. He cautioned against misplaced optimism about Jamaat-e-Islami’s “reform,” arguing that its strategic objective remains the political marginalization of mainstream parties and the eventual establishment of a Sharia-based order—pursued through systematic penetration of universities, coaching networks, finance, and governance structures. Referring to Shahriar Kabir’s incarceration and the silence of influential intellectual circles on minority persecution, he stressed that the book provides essential insight into the mindset and long-term project of these groups, making it indispensable for assessing Bangladesh’s trajectory in the critical months ahead.
