  • Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Confrontationist Power Politics in Pakistan : JRSP, Vol
    Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and Confrontationist Power Politics in Pakistan : JRSP, Vol. 58, No 2 (April-June 2021) Ulfat Zahra Javed Iqbal Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and the Beginning of Confrontationist Power Politics in Pakistan 1971-1977 Abstract: This paper mainly explores the genesis of power politics in Pakistan during 1971-1977. The era witnessed political disorders that the country had experienced after the tragic event of the separation of East Pakistan. Bhutto’s desire for absolute power and his efforts to introduce a system that would make him the main force in power alienated both, the opposition and his colleagues and supporters. Instead of a democratic stance on competitive policies, he adopted an authoritarian style and confronted the National People's Party, leading to an era characterized by power politics and personality clashes between the stalwarts of the time. This mutual distrust between Bhutto and the opposition - led to a coalition of diverse political groups in the opposition, forming alliances such as the United Democratic Front and the Pakistan National Alliance to counter Bhutto's attempts of establishing a sort of civilian dictatorship. This study attempts to highlight the main theoretical and political implications of power politics between the ruling PPP and the opposition parties which left behind deep imprints on the history of Pakistan leading to the imposition of martial law in 1977. If the political parties tackle the situation with harmony, a firm democracy can establish in Pakistan. Keywords: Pakhtun Students Federation, Dehi Mohafiz, Shahbaz (Newspaper), Federal Security Force. Introduction The loss of East Pakistan had caused great demoralization in the country.

  • READING MATERIAL of HISTORY and PAKISTAN STUDIES in the PUNJAB: an ANALYSIS Waseem Aziz
    PAKISTAN JOURNAL OF LINGUISTICS (PJL) Vol. 2 No. 3 (2020) READING MATERIAL OF HISTORY AND PAKISTAN STUDIES IN THE PUNJAB: AN ANALYSIS Waseem Aziz ABSTRACT Waseem Aziz in Pakistan reprimanded the legislatures and the reading material writers on distortion' of the recorded occasions and erasing significant portions of history from the prospectuses. Romila Mariam Chughtai shared her reservation with respect to reading material. Thapar in India mentioned criticisms against the BJP government's work of ‗religionising the prospectuses' and made an honest effort to present non-mutual methodology in the reading material while composing history books however her work stayed a simple craving on the grounds that the ‗religiously' radical ideological group possessing the primary passageway of the public government and having no similarity with her thoughts would not acknowledge the undisputed recorded realities. Dr. Mubarak Ali believed while composing on the course books that ‗defective reading material make a faulty outlook. Philosopy limits individuals from getting new information to comprehend the quick evolving world.' 2 Objections raised by KK Aziz with respect to authentic and social portrayals can barely be met if some writer or government plans to follow.3 For the explanation, various individuals condemned the reading material of History and Pakistan Studies however not a solitary writer has incorporated any course book as model. Whenever changed as wanted by the pundits it will prompt another discussion and individuals happy with the avoided things will be incredulous of the new consolidations and individuals disappointed with different things will respond in a similar way. So no full stop can be dropped anyplace for this situation since school or school prospectus comprising of information examined quickly with a particular heading can't oblige all parts of history.

  • The Ideological Divide of the Nonprofit Sector in Pakistan
    The Ideological Divide of the Nonprofit Sector in Pakistan By Muhammad Asif Iqbal* Presented at the International Conference of the International Society for Third-Sector Research, Bangkok, July 9-12, 2006 * The author is Principal Economist at the Social Policy and Development Centre, Karachi Address: 15, Maqbool CHS, Block 7&8, Karachi, PAKISTAN Email: [email protected] 1 The Ideological Divide of the Nonprofit Sector in Pakistan The nonprofit sector in Pakistan currently faces a number of issues among which ideological divide is identified as the most significant internal difference (Pasha and Iqbal 2002). There exists a strong polarization between religious and modern ‘secular’ organizations. During the 1980’s the tension between religious and secular NPOs (Nonprofit Organizations) increased significantly and it continues to grow till today. The conflict is more visible in advocacy of human rights, particularly women’s issues. There have been controversies in the field of service provision too, for example, in providing education to girls in a co-educational system and in pursuing family planning programs. On occasions, this tension has culminated in ideological/ political attacks on the nonprofit organizations that are working for advocacy of social and political rights. This ideological divide stems from different worldviews that leaders of religious and secular NPOs possess. Issues relating to women’s rights are at core of this contention. Pakistan has a complex socio-cultural setup where traditional values are mixed with religious beliefs. The religious elite, tribal mentality and local customs limit opportunities for women in the society. Thus, modern concepts of women’s rights _ including freedom of expression, freedom of movement, and economic emancipation _ are at odds with those interpretations of Islamic teachings about women’s rights that have been presented by conservative religious scholars in Pakistan.

Seldom can one find a country in the comity of nations whose intelligentsia and often the common people be seen speculating about the basis and rationale of their country. In the case of Pakistan, it is a common observation that our intelligentsia spares a major part of its time and the newspapers and periodicals spend a lot of their space on discussing the questions such as why did the country come into being? What purpose has it served? What can ensure its survival? Will it hold itself together against all divisive and centrifugal tendencies? Expressed in others words, Pakistan has for long suffered from an existential crisis.

  • Contribution of Fiscal Decentralization to Economic Growth: Evidence from Pakistan
    Pakistan Journal of Social Sciences (PJSS) Vol. 39, No. 2 (2019), pp. 533-542 Comparison of Religious Policies of Jalal-ud-Din Muhammad Akbar and Elizabeth I Muhammad Yasir Ali Khan Lecturer, Department of History and Civilization Studies, Bahauddin Zakariya Univeristy, Multan Abstract: This article comparatively describes and analyses the religious policies of Jalal ad Din Akbar and Elizabeth I. It details the religio-political reflections of both monarchs against the religious questions and challenges of sixteenth century England and India. English experience appears as an essentialist solution by giving birth to well-defined Anglican Church. Indian case witnesses the non-essentialist experiment of Akbar based on the concept of Universal Toleration. The comparatives study of different religio-political steps of two monarchs reveals that Elizabeth I’s model finds place in the historical developments in Europe which are culminated in modernity. Akbar’s model, although being superior, vast and accommodative reflects resistance in the future historical development in the political history of India. Author, on the basis of findings stresses the needs of revisiting Akbar’s position in a pursuit to address the present day religio- political issues being faced by Pakistani state and society. Keywords: Act of Uniformity, Din e Ilahi, Prayer Book, Mahzar, Universal Toleration, Sultan e Adil. I. Introduction John Tosh (2015) writes, “All societies have a collective memory, a storehouse of experience that is drawn on for a sense of identity and a sense of direction”.(p.1) The time period of current research paper dates back to sixteenth century but the impulse is highly contextualized in the contemporary debate.

  • The Naissant Decades (1971-2010)
    IJSSHE-International Journal of Social Sciences, Humanities and Education Volume 1, Number 1, 2017 ISSN 2521-0041 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- EVOLUTION AND TRENDS OF PROGRESSIVE HISTORIOGRAPHY IN PAKISTAN: AN ESTIMATE OF THE NAISSANT DECADES (1971-2010) Dr. Mazher Hussain The Islamia University of Bahawalpur, Pakistan Fakhar Bilal Royal Holloway University of London ABSTRACT The paper evolves the thematic assumption that historical consciousness reflected in progressive historiography in last four decades or so is primarily a reaction against the feudal fabric and outlook of the society and tends to understand the historical process and trends which paved way for the emergence of this school of historiography in the country. Progressive School of Historiography links itself with the progressive movement of mid-thirties which inspired a considerable number of scholars i.e. the leftist lot of the country. They adopted a self-motivated rather missionary approach to proliferate a historiographical ideal what is typically termed as the “other side” of History Writing. In the wake of revolutionary outburst of 1969 in the country- which claimed the first Martial Law regime, public hoped for the end of the country’s oppressive fabric forever. Although the endeavour remained fruitless yet it gave way to the realization of “social democracy” and “populism” in the country with an aim to create dialectic against the feudal as well as industrial classes of the country. The progressive historiographers were viewed as subversive to the indigenous history writing pursuits rather they were termed as hardliners both content and methodology they adopted for the promotion of their ideologies. Another phenomenon which emerges as the by-product of this dialectic was the influence of politics over the history writing which resulted into the leftist-rightist milieu.
