Television in Bangladesh: News and Audiences (Routledge, 2021) offers a rich ethnography of television news practices in Bangladesh, with a foreword by Marcus Banks, Professor of Visual Anthropology at Oxford University.
Dr Roy has been trained in anthropology and sociology from the University of Dhaka and the South Asian University, New Delhi. He formerly worked as a broadcast journalist in Bangladesh and is currently working as a fellow at the Jamia Millia Islamia University (New Delhi). In this latest work, he draws a synoptic history of television media, public engagement, and politics in Bangladesh, and shows how political regimes and public participation have contributed to the development of television media culture.
