Phd Thesis.Yaar Pakistani National Identity, Cultural Diversity, and Global Perspectives: A Policy Trajectory Study of the National Curriculum for Secondary School Pakistan Studies in Punjab By Yaar Muhammad MSc (Pakistan Studies), MA (Education), & MA (International Migration & Ethnic Relations) Thesis Submitted in Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Education University of Tasmania Launceston, Tasmania December, 2015 Abstract Domestic political circumstances, textbook controversies, and international pressure to revise education policy constituted the context of influence for the curriculum policy’s ideological shift in 2006 towards greater democratic pluralism. However, the extent of this ideological shift in the journey from policy to enacted practice—via the mediation of textbook content and teaching—has not been previously explored. This study investigated the trajectory of curriculum policy associated with secondary school Pakistan Studies, focusing specifically on the themes of Pakistani national identity, cultural diversity, and global perspectives—and the instructional strategies deployed in addressing these themes. The policy trajectory model (Bowe, Ball, & Gold, 1992) was used as an analytical framework. This model facilitated the examination of three policy contexts macro policy text production (curriculum documents), meso policy text production (textbooks) and teachers’ practice. Qualitative content analysis of the Pakistan Studies curriculum policy documents was conducted to understand the policy objectives and recommendations for the teaching of Pakistani national identity, cultural diversity, and global perspectives. Similarly, qualitative content analysis of the official Pakistan Studies textbooks was undertaken to understand policy text production and treatment of the identified identity themes. Lastly, cross-case analysis of the purposeful sample of 27 teachers was conducted to understand the perceptions, practices, and suggestions of teachers related to the same themes. The findings of this study revealed differences between curriculum policy documents (macro level), textbooks (meso level), and teachers (micro level) as to the discourses they privilege around national identity, cultural diversity, and global perspectives in Pakistan Studies. Furthermore, the analysis revealed the gradual permeation of the theocratic discourse in Pakistan Studies from the macro to micro levels of curriculum policy enactment. At the macro level, the dominant conception of Pakistani national identity was held in an uneasy tension—with attempts to face in two directions at once but edging towards the promotion of more pluralistic practices. ii However, at the meso level, the Pakistan Studies textbooks mainly incorporated the nation-statist/Islamist conception of Pakistani national identity. At the micro level, most of the teachers subscribed to Islamist and nation-statist national identity. With respect to ethnic and religious diversity, the objectives and learning outcomes at the macro level were progressive in intent. However, the textbooks generally paid limited attention to the representation of ethnic and religious diversity. Most of the teachers’ reported practices indicated that they confined themselves to the teaching of limited content on representation of ethnic and religious diversity because of time constraints, large classes, and an examination system that overwhelmingly only assesses students’ knowledge of the textbook content. At the macro level, the objectives and learning outcomes of the Pakistan Studies curriculum aimed to cultivate affinity with the non-Muslim world as well as the Muslim world. However, the textbooks focused largely upon cultivating students’ affinity with the Muslim world and used non-emotive language in the description of non-Muslim organisations. Most of the teachers had a greater inclination towards nationalism than Muslim Ummah or humanity in general. Finally, most of the curriculum policy’s recommended instructional strategies were not identified in the reported practices of the teachers. The liberal-democratic discourse of Pakistan Studies promulgated at the macro level seemed to disperse at the micro level. Therefore, it is argued that there would be merit in more tightly linking the various curriculum policy contexts. This could be implemented by ensuring awareness of roles and responsibilities at each level and by introducing the various policy enactors to the complexities of teaching about Pakistani national identity, cultural diversity, and global perspectives through various policy dissemination strategies. For policy makers, redressing the state exam policy appears to be the most urgent and effective measure to adopt in order for any future curriculum reform to flourish because this study’s data showed that state exams were the key determinant of the relatively narrow classroom practice. iii Declaration This thesis contains no material which has been accepted for a degree or diploma by the University or any other institution, except by way of background information and duly acknowledged in the thesis, and to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, except where due reference is made in the text. ______________________________ Yaar Muhammad iv Authority of Access This thesis may be made available for loan.

  • Censorship in Pakistani Urdu Textbooks
    Censorship in Pakistani Urdu Textbooks S and criticism has always been an active force in Pakistani society. Journalists and creative writers have had to struggle hard to find their way around or across many laws threatening to punish any deviation from the official line on most vital issues. The authorities’ initiative to impose censorship through legislative means dates back to the Public Safety Act Ordinance imposed in October , and later, in , ratified by the first Constituent Assembly of Pakistan as the Safety Act. Apart from numberless political workers, newspapers, and periodicals, the leading literary journals too fell victim to this oppressive piece of legislation which was only the first in a long series of such laws. In fact, Sav®r≥ (Lahore) has the dubious honor of being the first periodical of any kind to be banned, in , under this very Public Safety Act Ordinance. This legal device was also invoked to suspend two other Lahore-based literary periodicals—Nuq∑sh and Adab-e Laπµf—for six months and to incarcerate the editor of Sav®r≥, Zaheer Kashmiri, in without even a trial.1 The infamous Safety Act had well-known literary people on both sides. On the one hand, literary critics such as Mu√ammad ƒasan ‘Askarµ2 found the law perfectly justifiable—indeed, they even praised it. On the other hand, there were writers and editors who were prosecuted under 1See Zamir Niazi, The Press in Chains (Karachi: Karachi Press Club, ), pp. and . 2For details, see Mu√ammad ƒasan ‘Askarµ, Takhlµqµ ‘Amal aur Usl∑b, collected by Mu√ammad Suh®l ‘Umar (Karachi: Nafµs Academy, ) , pp.

  • Post-Independence Period
    Chapter 10 Post-Independence Period The Indian interest in the Psychological Warfare after the Independence has been more spasmodic than episodic. It has been used in shooting wars; counter-insurgency and proxy wars and peacekeeping operations without its practitioners having much benefit of institutionalised doctrinal, organisational, policy and plan back up. But whenever and wherever, the Psychological Warfare has been resorted to, it has given encouraging results. The military activities of this time of ours can be classitied into three categories, viz., Wars, the Proxy War and Counter-Insurgency Operations for the sake of better appreciation. There was not much of any Psywar of any kind in the fust three wars India fought after the partition-independence, including 1948 Kashmir War, Sino- Indian Border War of 1962, and Indo-Pak War of 1965. The war and security related attitudes and psychological iinpact did develop before, during and aft;er the hostilities and maybe the media coverage of those wars played a role in forming the attitudes. But that cannot be called the Psywar. It just happened. It is difficult to get any official confirmation, but it was learnt during a visit to Tawang-Sela-Bomdila sector in April 1999 that in 1962 the Chinese had dropped leaflets having portraits of an Indian soldier, a Chinese soldier and a local tribal juxtapositioned to reinforce their theme question to the people of then NEFA, 'who looks more like you? An Indian or Chinese.' No specimen of the pan-Mongolian appeal could be found either but it appeared to be plausible in some context.

The objective of the research in this article is to explore the Nixon–Kissinger style diplomacy’s framework for analyzing intelligence during this crisis, its effects on the formulation of foreign policy and on Indo–American relations. The cognitive psychological paradigms of Fundamental Attribution Error and Self-Fulfilling Prophecy will be used to underscore the Nixon administration’s framework for selecting facts and processing information, enforcing a Pygmalion Effect; the beliefs of the U.S. and India influenced their actions towards each other, reinforcing a cycle of preconceived ideas and contributing to an escalation of tensions during the crisis. Thus, the findings of this article are as follows: A humanitarian crisis required India’s intervention in the Pakistani Civil War for regional stability. Due to Pakistan’s role in aiding the Nixon administration’s opening of relations with China, there was a U.S. tilt towards Pakistan that was based not only off self-interest but also an incorrect assessment of India’s intentions which ultimately created a discrepancy between desired policy outcome and result.

The important landmarks in this timeline are the debates about government’s responsibility towards the pro- 229 motion of education and contestations among Orientalists, Anglicists and Missionary groups about the content and scope of such education. There has been a lot of discussion about the influence of policy statements such as Macaulay’s minute on education of 1835 and Wood’s dispatch of 1854. However, comparatively little emphasis has been placed on the ideological basis of these educational policies―especially through the medium of textbooks.2 Some notable exceptions are the works of Gauri Viswanathan (1998), Sanjay Seth (2007) and Krishna Kumar (2005). Vish- wanathan’s seminal work has shown how the reading of English liter- ary texts in schools was meant to promote a certain rational worldview conducive to the acceptance of Christian values and benevolence of British rule. Seth’s nuanced study aims at showing the pedagogical processes of colonial education as a site of colonial governmentality and disciplinary regime aimed at producing desirable subjectivities.

  • PAKISTAN FOREIGN POLICY FORMULATION, 1947-65: An
    PAKISTAN FOREIGN POLICY FORMULATION, 1947-65: An analysis of institutional interaction between American policy making bodies and the Pakistan Army. By Syed Hussain Shaheed Soherwordi Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of History and Classics University of Edinburgh Year of submission: 2009 This thesis is dedicated to my Parents- my Papa Syed Maqsood Ali Pirzada and my lovely Ammi (late) Hasnain Khatoon. Both of them always wanted to see me at the zenith of my education. Their aspiration remained a confidence boost for my academic achievements. ii Abstract This thesis examines through the use of archives and oral evidence the role of the Pakistan Army in the context of Pakistan’s domestic politics and foreign policy. Its main purpose is to explore the autonomy of the Pakistan Army in shaping national and foreign policy between the years 1947-1965. Focusing on its independent relationship with three instruments of policy-making in the United States – the Department of State, the White House and the Pentagon – the thesis argues that the relationship between the Army and these policy-making bodies arose from a synergistic commonality of interests. The Americans needed a country on the periphery of the Soviet Union to contain Communism while the Pakistan Army needed US military support to check Indian regional military hegemonism in South Asia. This alliance was secured to the disadvantage of democratic political institutions of Pakistan. The Army, which became stronger as a result of US military and economic support, came progressively to dominate domestic politics. This led not only to weakened civilian governments in the period I am examining, but in 1958 to the military seizure of political control of the country itself.
