Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2017. Illustrations. viii + 279 pp. $99.99 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-107-19276-8. Reviewed by Siobhan Lambert-Hurley (University of Sheffield) Published on H-Asia (April, 2020) Commissioned by Sumit Guha (The University of Texas at Austin) Printable Version: http://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=52865 Any reader who has visited Pakistan will be very familiar with the name—and probably the face—of Fatima Jinnah. In public buildings throughout the land, her painted image graces the walls, often at a spectacular level of magnification. The streets, too, are home to her effigy in the form of posters, statues, and plaques. In Karachi, a road, a housing colony, and a dental college are named for her, while, in Islamabad, a park, in Lahore, a medical school, and, in Rawalpindi, a women’s university. The list of her commemorations appears endless—even stretching, for those in the United Kingdom, to a waxwork at Madame Tussauds. In memorial as in life, she often appears at the side of her more famous brother, Muhammad Ali Jinnah. Just as he is revered as Qaid-i-Azam, or “Great Leader,” for his role in founding Pakistan in 1947, so she is honored as Madar-i-Millat: “Mother of the Nation.” Together, they rest at the iconic Mazar-i-Qaid, or National Monument—a stunning example of 1960s modernism in marble not to be missed by any visitor—in the bustling, maritime city of their birth, Karachi.

  • Chapter 5 Nawat
    Chapter 5 Nawat 5.1 Introduction This chapter introduces the Nawat/Pipil language. Section 5.2 explains the Nawat/Pipil and the Nawat/Nahuatl distinction. A brief history of the Pipil people is provided in section 5.3. Section 5.4 reviews the available Nawat language resources. A basic grammar is outlined in section 5.5. A more complete description would require more resources beyond the scope of the present project. Section 5.6 discusses the issues that arise for the present project, including what alphabet and dialect to use. Section 5.7 provides a summary of the chapter. 5.2 Nawat – Some Basic Facts Nawat versus Pipil In the literature, the Nawat language of El Salvador is referred to as Pipil. The people who speak the language are known as the Pipil people, hence the use of the word Pipil for their language. However, the Pipil speakers themselves refer to their language as Nawat. In El Salvador, the local Spanish speakers refer to the language as “nahuat” (pronounced “/nawat/”). Throughout this document, the language will be called Nawat. El Salvador is a small country in Central America. It is bordered on the north-west by Guatemala and on the north-east by Honduras. See Figure 5.1 for a map of Central America. El Salvador (Used by permission of The General Libraries, The University of Texas at Austin) Figure 5.1 Map of Central America 75 Nawat versus Nahuatl Nawat is an Uto-Aztecan language (Campbell, 1985). It is related to the Nahuatl language spoken in Mexico (which is where the Pipils originally came from, see section 5.3).

In this research, eleven categories of names for drug/alcohol treatment facilities have been identified while eight categories have been identified for adult daycare centers. Ten categories have become apparent for nursing homes and assisted living facilities. These naming choices function as euphemisms in many cases, and in others, names reference morphemes which are perceived to reference a higher social class than competitor names.

Based on evidence from Koryak (Chukotko-Kamchan) anaphors, we argue that the AAE should be weakened and be stated as a generalization about person agreement only. We propose a theory of the weakened AAE, which combines a modification of Preminger (2019)'s AnaphP-encapsulation proposal as well as converging evidence from work on the internal syntax of pronouns (Harbour 2016, van Urk 2018).

  • Pakistani Nationalism and the State Marginalisation of the Ahmadiyya Community in Pakistan
    Sadia Saeed: Pakistani Nationalism and the State Marginalisation of the Ahmadiyya Community in Pakistan Pakistani Nationalism and the State Marginalisation of the Ahmadiyya Community in Pakistan Sadia Saeed University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, USA Abstract This paper examines the relationship between nationalism, state formation, and the marginalisation of national minorities through an historical focus on Pakistani state’s relationship with the Ahmadiyya community, a self-defined minority sect of Islam. In 1974, a constitutional amendment was enacted that effectively rendered the Ahmadiyya community a non-Muslim minority, in spite of claims by the community that it was Muslim and hence not a minority. This paper attempts to account for this anti-Ahmadiyya state legislation by arguing that the genealogy of the idea of a Pakistani state is key for understanding the politics of exclusion of the Ahmadiyya community from ‘Muslim citizenship’ – that is, who is and isn’t a Muslim. Introduction This paper explores the relationship between nationalism, state formation, and the marginalisation of national minorities. In the literature on the nation and nationalism, the relationship between state formation and nationalist exclusions is often under-theorised, with the implicit assumption made that processes of nation building occur independently of the construction of state institutions. Many works have shown the pitfalls of this neglect by demonstrating that the articulation of nationalist ideologies, and the processes which take place in the national community as a result of such nationalisms, are either aided by, or are articulated in response to, the formation of state institutions and practices of social closure (Brubaker 1992; Balibar 2004; Omi and Winant 1994).

According to the Sydney Morning Herald, the Federal Investigation Agency (FIA) in Pakistan arrests an average of six people a day in the Islamabad area for document fraud (The Sydney Morning Herald 13 July 2010). An assistant director of the FIA stated that tens of thousands of people have some sort of involvement in this industry (ibid.). According to a an article published on 12 November 2009 in another Lahore newspaper, The Nation, the current British Home Office Minister responsible for Immigration stated that numerous applications for British visas presented by Pakistanis are accompanied by false documents. The Consul General of the United States in Pakistan stated that in July 2010, nearly 98% of applications for American visas made by Pakistanis were refused because they were accompanied by false documents (Dawn 21 July 2010).

In recent years the military has been asked to simultaneously combat a vicious internal insurgency, suppress international terror- ist groups, and respond to Pakistan’s worst floods in eighty years, all while squaring off against a much larger rival in one of the most strategically complex regions in the world. Pakistan’s armed forces are not only an instrument of the state’s foreign policy, but also the most influential actor in the country’s internal politics.

  • The Role of Media in Pakistan Dr
    Journal of South Asian and Middle Eastern Studies, 35 :4, Summer 2012. The Role of Media in Pakistan Dr. Nazir Hussain The explosion of information revolution and the proliferation of electronic media have virtually converted the world into a globalized village. Now, information, news and events have no barriers and control to reach anywhere around the world. These happenings reach to every living room instantaneously even before the governments can react and control it. The enhanced role of media has impacted the social, economic and political life. What one thinks, believes and perceives are based on the images shown on the media. It has penetrated the routine life of all individuals; commoners, elites, decision-makers and statesmen. States have often been inclined to use the media as a propaganda tool for political and military purposes. The decades of 1980s and 1990s have for instance witnessed the use of US media for politico-military ends. The projection of Soviet Union as an ‘Evil Empire’, the Saddam saga and the ‘Weapons of Mass Destruction’ and the Osama Bin Laden from ‘Freedom Fighter to a Terrorist’ are some of the examples. However, now the media has come out of the domain of the state controls, it is the financiers, the media houses and the media anchors that make heroes and villains, leaders and terrorists. Therefore, the role of media is growing from an observer to an active player in political decision making. The political leaders and government officials have become dependent to convey and defend their policies through the use of media. The media where ‘more anti-government will earn more business’ is considered a basic key to success.

They are the most influential tools to educate the masses about health. Therefore, it was of a profound significance to understand how they work on health sector of Pakistan. The content analysis of health news was carried out throughout the whole year of 2020. For this, an English newspaper of Pakistan “Daily the Nation” was selected to carry out the research because the English newspapers are believed to have the responsible reporting style as they have the well-educated-cum-trained reporters who work on their assignments responsibly. To collect the data, the archive service for newspaper was used, and 101 health news were identified. The news was further split into two portions, 1) those having optimistic claims, and 2) those having pessimistic claims. However, the news which carried positive connotations within their contents were named as the news of optimistic claims, whereas the news which brought negative connotations inside their contents were named as the news of pessimistic claims.
