  • Metaphorical Devices in Political Cartoons with Reference to Political Confrontation in Pakistan After Panama Leaks
    Metaphorical Devices in Political cartoons with Reference to Political Confrontation in Pakistan after Panama Leaks Ayesha Ashfaq Savera Shami Sana Naveed Khan It has been assumed that metaphorical and symbolic contests are waged with metaphors, captions and signs in political cartoons that play a significant role in image construction of political actors, situations or events in political arena. This paper is an effort to explore the metaphorical devices in political cartoons related to the political confrontation in Pakistan between the ruling party Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PMLN) and opposition parties especially after Panama leaks. For this purpose, political cartoons sketched by three renowned political cartoonists on the basis of their belongings to the highest circulated mainstream English newspapers of Pakistan and their extensive professional experiences in their genre, were selectedfrom April 2016 to July 29, 2017 (Period of Panama trail). The cartoons were analyzed through the Barthes’s model of Semiotics. It was observed that metaphorical devices in political cartoons are one of the key weapons of cartoonists’ armory. These devices are used to attack on the candidates and contribute to the image and character building. It was found that all the selected political cartoonists used different forms of metaphors including situational metaphors and embodying metaphors. Not only the physical stature but also the debates and their activities were depicted metaphorically in the cartoons that create the scenario of comparison between the cartoons and their real political confrontation. It was examined that both forms of metaphors shed light on cartoonist’s perception and newspaper’s policy about political candidates, political parties and particular events.

  • Unit 19. Panama Papers- Case of Tax Evasion by the Rich
    GAUTAM SINGH UPSC STUDY MATERIAL – International Relation 0 7830294949 Unit 19. Panama Papers- Case of Tax Evasion by the Rich The Panama Papers are documents which were leaked from Mossack Fonseca, a Panama-based law firm offering legal and trust services. It is alleged that many of these documents show how wealthy individuals – including public officials – hide their money from public scrutiny. Panama Papers: What is it? It is a set of 11.5 million documents that were leaked from a Panama-based corporate service provider Mossack Fonseca. (Note: Panama is a Central American country). It is considered as the biggest leak in the history, even bigger than the WikiLeaks and the Snowden leaks. The documents contain detailed information (including those of shareholders and directors, and even passport information!) about more than 2.14 lakh offshore companies listed by the agency. It is alleged that the agency facilitated the rich and influential people to hide their wealth from public scrutiny, and thus evade taxation in their domestic domains. The alleged perpetrators vary from current government leaders to public officials to close associates of various heads of the governments etc. The leak consists of data created between 1970s and late 2015. The data primarily comprises e-mails, PDF files, photos, and excerpts of an internal Mossack Fonseca database, covering a period from the 1970s to 2016. The Panama Papers leak provides data on some 214,000 companies with a folder for each shell firm that contains e-mails, contracts, transcripts, and scanned documents. The leak comprised over 4.8 million emails, 3 million database format files, 2.2 million PDFs, 1.2 million images, 320 thousand text files, and 2242 files in other formats.

  • Malta 2016 Human Rights Report
    MALTA 2016 HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Malta is a constitutional republic and parliamentary democracy. The president is the head of state, appointed by a resolution of the unicameral parliament (House of Representatives. Parliament appointed a new president in 2014. The president names as prime minister the leader of the party winning a majority of seats in parliamentary elections. The 2013 general elections were deemed free and fair. Civilian authorities maintained effective control over security forces. Lengthy delays in the judicial system, inadequate government programs for integrating migrants, and alleged corruption at senior government levels compounded by a lack of government transparency were the most significant human rights problems. Other problems included violence against women, trafficking in persons, societal racial discrimination, forced labor, and substandard work conditions for irregular migrants. The government took steps to investigate, prosecute, and punish officials who committed violations, whether in security services or elsewhere in the government. Section 1. Respect for the Integrity of the Person, Including Freedom from: a. Arbitrary Deprivation of Life and other Unlawful or Politically Motivated Killings There were no reports that the government or its agents committed arbitrary or unlawful killings. b. Disappearance There were no reports of politically motivated disappearances. c. Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman, or Degrading Treatment or Punishment The constitution and law prohibit such practices. MALTA 2 Prison and Detention Center Conditions While there were no significant reports regarding prison or detention center conditions that raised general human rights concerns, poor conditions in detention centers for certain irregular migrants persisted. Physical Conditions: On October 25, the Council of Europe’s Committee for the Prevention of Torture (CPT) released a report on its September 2015 visit to the country.

  • Through the Critical Lenses of Cartoonists-Analysis of Political Cartoons
    EUROPEAN ACADEMIC RESEARCH Vol. VIII, Issue 3/ June 2020 Impact Factor: 3.4546 (UIF) ISSN 2286-4822 DRJI Value: 5.9 (B+) www.euacademic.org History of Pakistanis’ Power Politics-from 1947 to 2020- through the Critical Lenses of Cartoonists- Analysis of Political Cartoons SHAZIA AKBAR GHILZAI Faculty Member, Department of Linguistics, QAU PhD Student, USPC Paris13, Research Lab TTN Paris 13 Abstract Political cartoons have the power to elicit a variety of responses because cartoon artists craft their work to express political views that are often controversial. We can say that political cartoons resemble time capsules. They provide information to the viewers about the time of their creation. Since, they denote particular events, they may seem to be locked in a given age. The article shows how the cartoons of a specific period represent the time and period in which they are produced. It reveals the function of cartoons beyond just humor or politics; cartoons not only record the history, the historical events and situations; but also provide critical lenses to view them simultaneously. It is indeed a very unique way for the creation, evaluation and maintenance of history and historical records. The present study reveals the history of Pakistanis’ power politics from 1947 to 2020 preserved through the medium of cartoons. The cartoonists evaluate and record particular events, situations and circumstances existing at one moment of time. The artists preserve the whole anecdote along with the context in a single frame uniquely. The editorial or political cartoons are based on topics of national interest; therefore, the present study recommends the preservation of cartoons systematically as National Archives1.
