Description: This study chronicles Bangladesh's ninth parliamentary elections, from the first election  campaign period in 2006, through the installation of a new government in 2009. The period  began with dissention and violence that spiraled downward into a cancelled election and the  imposition of a State of Emergency. This was followed by two years of reforms leading to what  many consider the best election in the country's history.
