Challenges and Opportunities of Multilingual Library Websites: Evidence from a Developing Country
International Journal of Business and Management Invention ISSN (Online): 2319 – 8028, ISSN (Print): 2319 – 801X www.ijbmi.org Volume 1 Issue 1 ‖‖ December. 2012 ‖‖ PP.01-15 Challenges and Opportunities of Multilingual Library Websites: Evidence from a Developing Country Amir Manzoor (Management Sciences Department, Bahria University, Karachi, Pakistan) ABSTRACT: This study investigates the language barriers on library websites, analyzingdata collected from 133 library websites in Pakistan. Despite a significant increase in the number of library websites in Pakistan, the development of multilingual library websites is still in its infancy stages and doesn’t cater to the needs of diverse population of its users. The study provides first-hand findings on the multilinguality of library websites in Pakistan with a focus on challenges and opportunities arising from such websites. Implications of research along with future research directions are also discussed. Keywords––Language Barriers, Library Websites, Multilingual Websites, Machine Translation. I. INTRODUCTION Language barriers are natural in human communication. In cross border communication, these barriers not only include dominance of a particular language (e.g. English) but also the increasingly multilingual the Internet [(David Crystal 2001); (Becker 2007)]. Since beginning of the last decade, the multilinguality on the Internet has sharply increased with online content available in hundreds of languages [(Crystal 2006); (Kelsey 2011)]. This increased multilinguality has created new challenges for language barriers. In order to facilitate the multilingual users to effectively navigate, search, filter, and retrieve the multilingual content from the library websites, various stakeholders need to do collective efforts [(Dubois 1979);(Yunker 2002); (Tixier 2005); (Becker 2007); (Diekema 2012)]. -
Muhammad Khurshid Khan* Preamble
Analyzing DomesticIPRI Terrorism Journal as IX, a Thno.2reat (Summer to Pakistan’s 2009): Security 49-76 49 ANALYZING DOMESTIC TERRORISM AS A THREAT TO PAKISTAN’S SECURITY AND THE POLICY RESPONSE Muhammad Khurshid Khan∗ Abstract Pakistan was not unfamiliar to terrorist activities even prior to 9/11, but its decision to participate in the “Global War on Terror” (GWOT) as a state policy exposed it to renewed and heightened activity of terrorist outfits which caused a serious blow to its domestic security. Pakistan's domestic instability is also linked to a number of different causes which are “home grown” as well as foreign sponsored. The dominance of the military in national politics for prolonged periods and the wide network of electronic media have also not done any great service to the country. Issues like poverty, unemployment, health and literacy are also important contributing factors. The real threat to the country's security stems from “within”. Externally, Pakistan finds itself geographically placed in a volatile environment. Peace can be achieved and maintained through strength. Pakistan Army that has been assigned the role of dealing with both domestic as well as external security challenges seems comfortable with some limitations. However, the responsibility to tackle the various domestic security threats lies with the second line forces (SLFs) which are not fully prepared and need extensive training to cater for all kinds of domestic crises; Army should be utilized sparingly as a last option. In order to deal with the above referred challenges effectively, a three tier approach comprising an international dimension, regional cooperation and national level measures is suggested. -

Pakistan's Nuclear Weapons
Pakistan’s Nuclear Weapons Paul K. Kerr Analyst in Nonproliferation Mary Beth Nikitin Specialist in Nonproliferation August 1, 2016 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL34248 Pakistan’s Nuclear Weapons Summary Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal probably consists of approximately 110-130 nuclear warheads, although it could have more. Islamabad is producing fissile material, adding to related production facilities, and deploying additional nuclear weapons and new types of delivery vehicles. Pakistan’s nuclear arsenal is widely regarded as designed to dissuade India from taking military action against Pakistan, but Islamabad’s expansion of its nuclear arsenal, development of new types of nuclear weapons, and adoption of a doctrine called “full spectrum deterrence” have led some observers to express concern about an increased risk of nuclear conflict between Pakistan and India, which also continues to expand its nuclear arsenal. Pakistan has in recent years taken a number of steps to increase international confidence in the security of its nuclear arsenal. Moreover, Pakistani and U.S. officials argue that, since the 2004 revelations about a procurement network run by former Pakistani nuclear official A.Q. Khan, Islamabad has taken a number of steps to improve its nuclear security and to prevent further proliferation of nuclear-related technologies and materials. A number of important initiatives, such as strengthened export control laws, improved personnel security, and international nuclear security cooperation programs, have improved Pakistan’s nuclear security. However, instability in Pakistan has called the extent and durability of these reforms into question. Some observers fear radical takeover of the Pakistani government or diversion of material or technology by personnel within Pakistan’s nuclear complex. -
