Abstract: It is widely assumed that political leadership is central to the process of governance, initiating a new social order and transformation in Bangladesh. Transaction to democracy in itself can not bring the desired changes, national political leadership must commit to its politics and governance to increasingly focus on people and their economic well being and relate them in terms of cultural norms, community trust and accountability. It is also argued in this study that priorities of democratization have been shifting over time, moving from a focus on pre-requisites of democracy to a focus on actor-based leadership concerns, governance and civil society interaction.
