While previous research emphasizes the pragmatic and violent nature of student politics, this article explores the role of ideological positioning in campus politics, focusing on commemoration events and the significance of certain symbolic national days. Commemoration practices contribute to the reproduction of party narratives and ideologies at the levels of both student politics and the university administration. However, far from just reflecting the official party discourse, individuals organizing or attending these events often have pragmatic perspectives using them strategically for their own micro-political endeavors on campus. The ethnographic exploration of these dynamics elucidates when and how ideological positioning and commitment becomes relevant, as well as how personal convictions intersect with other reasons for engaging in party politics. dc:creator: Mascha Schulz dcterms:created: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z Last-Modified: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z dcterms:modified: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z dc:format: application/pdf; version=1.5 title: South Asia Multidisciplinary Academic Journal, 22 | 2019 Last-Save-Date: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z pdf:docinfo:creator_tool: OpenEdition access_permission:fill_in_form: true pdf:docinfo:keywords: student politics,ideological commitment,commemoration,National day,Bangladesh,university campus,party politics,August pdf:docinfo:modified: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z meta:save-date: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z pdf:encrypted: false dc:title: South Asia Multidisciplinary Academic Journal, 22 | 2019 modified: 2020-07-10T13:27:46Z cp:subject: Based on 15 months of ethnographic research between 2016 and 2019, this article explores the campus as a core site for the (re-)production of Bangladesh?s ruling party?s hegemony and domination.
