Chinese primitive philosophy, as the unity of cosmological ontology, epistemology and methodology of the Chinese philosophical system, is a complete and mature philosophical system formed in the late primitive society as early as before the Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties. It is also the unity of the concept of Yin and Yang and constant life that is sublimated from the human-beings' basic cultural consciousness: life consciousness and reproduction …
Pakistan, Muslim Womanhood and Social Jihad
Analysts have traditionally ignored women's narratives on jihad and have focused on the views of male jihadists. Research on Jamat'ud'Dawah and Lashker-e-Toiba fits this pattern, despite the growing involvement of women in the activities of those organizations. This article analyses the narratives and stories, and their implications for the jihadi project with reference to the publications of one female leader in the group, Umm Abd Muneeb. Drawin…

Pakistan, militancy and identity
This article focuses on the dominant and parallel struggles that have been carried out in Pakistan in terms of its Islamic identity since 9/11. It argues that the Pakistan government has legitimised and explained its partnership with the US government in countering terrorism through a discourse that makes use of Islamic symbols. The Islamists have engaged in a similar process, arguing for jihad against the enemies of Islam. Simultaneously, a tens…
Islamisation and activism of a Muslim NGO in Pakistan
This paper locates the study of Jamat‐ud‐Da'wa (JUD) within the context of global political developments. Premised on the nexus between the local and the global developments, it discusses how changes in the domestic or international arena shaped the policies of JUD after 9/11. It argues that, as a successor to the Lashker‐e‐Toiba in Pakistan, the JUD has been active in the social welfare space. It has moved into roles that reside in the domain of…
Introduction Special Edition
Muslim Women as Citizens in Australia
The paper explores the nature of Muslim women's activism before and after the terrorist attacks on the United States in September 2001. Drawing on the information gathered since the early 1990s, it argues that the focus on Muslim militancy has prompted Muslim women living in Western Australia to become more active citizens. The emerging activism is following two diverse directions: some Muslim women favour orthodox interpretations of Islam as gui…
Pakistan's Kashmir policy
This paper focuses on Pakistan's Kashmir policy in the 1990s. It argues that this policy has been embedded in the context of negative imagery in India and Pakistan of the ‘other’. But it has not been devoid of pluralism; different views exist in Pakistan on the appropriate approaches to resolving the dispute. While the Orthodox and the Islamists favour a combative approach, the moderates favour accommodation and negotiation with India on Kashmir.…
