This episode offers a comprehensive overview of the political and economic aftermath of the July 2024 mass uprising in Bangladesh and the subsequent efforts of the interim government to enact reforms. Specifically, the texts detail the causes and evolution of the revolution, which began as a student protest against job quotas and escalated due to state violence, drawing on theories of crowds and moral economy.

Finally, several reports track macroeconomic indicators like inflation, credit growth, and foreign reserves, alongside public sentiment regarding the new government, ultimately suggesting that while some stability has returned, significant challenges like economic anxiety, political uncertainty, and institutional dysfunction persist.
