Pakistan Response Towards Terrorism: a Case Study of Musharraf Regime
PAKISTAN RESPONSE TOWARDS TERRORISM: A CASE STUDY OF MUSHARRAF REGIME By: SHABANA FAYYAZ A thesis Submitted to the University of Birmingham For the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Political Science and International Studies The University of Birmingham May 2010 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

ABSTRACT The ranging course of terrorism banishing peace and security prospects of today’s Pakistan is seen as a domestic effluent of its own flawed policies, bad governance, and lack of social justice and rule of law in society and widening gulf of trust between the rulers and the ruled. The study focused on policies and performance of the Musharraf government since assuming the mantle of front ranking ally of the United States in its so called ‘war on terror’. The causes of reversal of pre nine-eleven position on Afghanistan and support of its Taliban’s rulers are examined in the light of the geo-strategic compulsions of that crucial time and the structural weakness of military rule that needed external props for legitimacy. The flaws of the response to the terrorist challenges are traced to its total dependence on the hard option to the total neglect of the human factor from which the thesis develops its argument for a holistic approach to security in which the people occupy a central position. -

Shakir Ali, an Enigma Within a Layered Reality’
Pakistan Perspectives Vol. 22, No.2, July-December 2017 ‘Shakir Ali, an Enigma within a Layered Reality’ Iram Zia Raja* Abstract Shakir Ali was a man of multiple identities. As a teacher, the administrator of an art college and a prolific artist, in the beginning years of the newly founded post-colonial state of Pakistan, he enjoyed an almost mythical reputation among the many subsequent generations of art students and artists. This research paper delineates his path as an administrator/educator at the new art college, National College of Arts (NCA), while contextualizing it with his other identities. He was an artist, an occasional writer and had earlier taught at the Mayo School of Arts (MSA). A probe into the realm of art instruction in the early days of a post colony provides valuable insights into the socio-political and cultural contexts thereby facilitating the analysis of administrative constraints as well as instructional methodologies. The methodology adopted is that of qualitative research, structured and un-structured interviews with the first and second batch of students of newly founded NCA, triangulation being done through archival sources and published literary accounts. ______ Who is Shakir Ali? The question, who is Shakir Ali, should be intriguing for art circles in Pakistan. Shakir Ali was an important figure in different and diverse domains. Shakir Ali the painter was also a writer, art college administrator and art educator. There are many who know Shakir Ali: some personally in the capacity of students, colleagues, and friends, while others, as mere admirers and connoisseurs of his art works. -

Jan DEDICATION Dedicated to my beautiful mother Yasmin Jan and the beloved memory of my father Brian Habib Ahmed Jan ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are many people to whom I owe my deepest gratitude for bringing me to this stage and for shaping the world of possibilities. Ones access to a space of thought is possible only because of the examples and paths laid by the other. I must begin by thanking my dissertation committee: my co-chairs Juan Cole and Nicholas Dirks, for their intellectual leadership, scholarly example and incredible patience and faith. Nick’s seminar on South Asia and his formative role in Culture/History/Power (CSST) program at the University of Michigan were vital in setting the critical and interdisciplinary tone of this project. Juan’s masterful and prolific knowledge of West Asian histories, languages and cultures made him the perfect mentor. I deeply appreciate the intellectual freedom and encouragement they have consistently bestowed over the years. Alexander Knysh for his inspiring work on Ibn ‘Arabi, and for facilitating several early opportunity for teaching my own courses in Islamic Studies. And of course my deepest thanks to Barbara Metcalf for unknowingly inspiring this project, for her crucial and sympathetic work on the Deoband ‘Ulama and for her generous insights and critique. -
Aqsa Malik Naela Aamir the Aesthetic of Retaliation and Its Contribution to Society Abstract There Is an Ample Literature On
Aqsa Malik Naela Aamir The Aesthetic of Retaliation and its Contribution to Society Abstract There is an ample literature on the political changes that took place under the military government of General Muhammad Zia-ul Haq and a few studies that explore the status of art under the censorship policies imposed, however, there are still many areas that need to be explored from the perspectives of art history and criticism. One such area is the focus of this study, wherein, art works are analyzed in terms of their main aesthetic content. The study maintains that various artists who were resilient against oppressive censorship collectively produced an aesthetic of retaliation which promoted freedom and insight in multiple ways. Although each of the artists discussed in the study require separate and detailed inquiry but still looking their notable works at one place helps in defining some common features. Introduction The development of art as a historical process is not contestable. There exists ample literature particularly after the emergence of modern art, wherein, art historians have linked development in arts to either the material conditions of a particular period or the emerging intellectual framework. For instance, Marxist art historians and critics understand art as a product of cultural evolution and progress, whereby, art integrated with culture through the determining economic conditions. They also maintain that visual arts cannot be explained unless the essential connection between artistic and social practices is not considered. Since social reality is a revolutionary development according to Marxists therefore art reflects such change in a comprehensive manner as the artists are inclined to serve the society.1 The other camp observes art as a product of intellectual framework of the time period in which an artist exists. -

Cubism in Pakistan: “An Evolutionary Glance”1
Sunway Academic Journal Volume 10 1 CUBISM IN PAKISTAN: “AN EVOLUTIONARY GLANCE”1 SHAHNILA MUGHEES Sunway University No. 5 Jalan Universiti, Bandar Sunway, 46150 Petaling Jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan Tel: +60(3)74918622 Ext. 3541 Fax: +60(3)56358630 Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This paper reviews the cubist movement and its impact on the young artists in Pakistan. This practice-led research project investigates from an evolutionary perspective, how the Pakistani art scenario started to take a leap forward after the independence. Starting from Abdul Rahman Chughtai, Allah Bux and Sheikh Shujaullah’s conventional style, the modernism of Shakir Ali was soon found dominating the art scene. No wonder Shakir Ali is regarded as the first daring artist, responsible for introducing cubism into Pakistan. This study thus proves that it was cubism, which proved a vital source of art propagation and acted as a pillar for initiating new trends in the art genre of Pakistan. In conclusion, cubism also served as a platform for those artists who were striving to get new vistas for self-expression. INTRODUCTION The 20th century witnessed a rapid series of artistic inventions in its first two decades which arose to mark a difference from the past: “The revolt against all form of naturalism was in full swing, new ideas and methods were put forward in painting, sculpture, architecture, in literature, music, philosophy and science as well and the radical inventions of these years underlie all later developments even today”2. These new artistic experimentations during 1905 to 1916 gave birth to several movements: the fauves, Die Bruke, Der blue Rieter, Futurism, Orphism, Suprematism, Constructivism, Votivism and Dadaism. -
