  • The Social Effects of Drone Warfare on the F.A.T.A. and Wider Pakistan

    The Social Effects of Drone Warfare on the F.A.T.A. and Wider Pakistan

    THE SOCIAL EFFECTS OF DRONE WARFARE ON THE F.A.T.A. AND WIDER PAKISTAN Stephen Pine, January 2016 Submitted in partial fulfilment of the MA degree in Development and Emergency Practice, Oxford Brookes University The Social Effects of Drone Warfare on the F.A.T.A. and Wider Pakistan Abstract The FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Areas) of Pakistan have a long history of conflict and have been used as something of a proving ground for U.S. drones, operated jointly by the USAF (United States Air Force) and the CIA. This dissertation aims to evaluate the social effects of drone strikes and drone surveillance upon the civilian population of the FATA as well as other regions of Pakistan. Through statistical correlative analysis this dissertation finds that, far from achieving the aim of eliminating militancy within the FATA, drone strikes have acted as a recruitment tool for the Pakistani Taliban (TTP) and have harmed the local civilian population. FATA residents have been caught in a deadly cycle of drone strikes followed by militant revenge-attacks which have often been known to focus on ‘softer’ civilian targets. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data within this dissertation reveals that even the basic functioning of schools within the FATA has been affected, with both teachers and students hesitant to attend for fear of attack. Drone strikes in the region have also led to financial insecurity for families as they have lost their male ‘bread-winners’. This has been compounded by the destruction of family property and assets. Furthermore, local residents have been found to have developed mental health problems and, in many cases, display clear symptoms of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD).

    C.V-03 Draft Development Plan January 2007

    KARACHI MASTER PLAN-2020 CV-03 January 2007 C.V-03 Draft Development Plan 1 KARACHI MASTER PLAN-2020 CV-03 2 KARACHI MASTER PLAN-2020 CV-03 FOREWORD AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT With its 15 million population and an urban sprawl of 1300 sq km, the city of Karachi is the 7th largest city in the world. Karachi is recognized and valued for its enormous diversity that it represents. With its cultural cross section, it truly represents Pakistan in terms of its ethnic as well as cultural cross section in a unique urbane scenario. The range of dynamics and dimensions that governs this true Megapolise is more complex, than any one city can present. However, this diversity is the strength of the city. Ironically the true potential of Karachi has never been realized, for various reasons mentioned in this Master Plan. The plan suggests the strategies to enhance the quality of life for Karachities, as well as bring equity in living standards, provision of services consistent throughout the city. The strategies, if implemented, will bring synchronization to the urban fabric of city of Karachi. It has been appreciated that, due to neglect, and inaction, the city has lost its flair and its title as the “Queen of the East” . To regain the national and international prestige, which the city deserve, an overall strategic framework is been proposed, which is flexible enough to adopt to ever changing needs of the city, while comprehensive enough to be implemented as it is. The plan proposes a holistic approach towards improvements, specifically pro-poor polices, suggested changes in the approach to make it more conforming to the ground realities.
