English across South Asia
The British East India Company, founded in 1599, introduced English in India in the elitist domains of power—government, administration, judiciary, military, education, commerce, and the media—between the 18th and the 19th centuries.
Cardiovascular disease risk reduction interventions for Indigenous women
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) prevention strategies are predominantly informed by studies conducted in men from the general population, which can disadvantage women—particularly Indigenous women—whose CVD needs differ in terms of symptom presentation, healthcare access, receipt of guideline-recommended care and sociocultural roles. This review aims to summarize the effectiveness of CVD prevention interventions in Indigenous women in the USA, Canad…
Yorga Moorditj Koort
In Australia, despite overall declines in cardiovascular disease (CVD)-related mortality, Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander women develop heart disease earlier and experience more than twice the rate of related morbidity and mortality compared with non-Indigenous women. This study explores Aboriginal women’s understandings of the factors that shape their heart health and lived experiences of CVD. We spoke with 28 Aboriginal women aged ≥18 yea…
Improving Hygiene and Sanitation through Parental Skill Training
Raising Health Awareness in Rural Communities
Delivering validated information to rural areas is a major challenge in low-income countries. In this paper, we study information provision to rural communities in the context of a global outbreak of an infectious disease—COVID-19. Two weeks after the initial lockdown in March 2020, we conducted a randomized experiment in rural Bangladesh and India to disseminate health information over the phone. We find that relative to information provided via…
Shaky ground
The city of Lahore, Pakistan inherited a colonial land bureaucracy in which land is owned according ‘rights in land’ rather than ‘rights to land’. Unlike the absolute ownership provided by state-backed titles, rights in land is merely a presumption of ownership until proven otherwise, creating a permanent gap between ownership and property. These gaps are investigated by patwaris, or lower-level bureaucrats who confirm rights in land before prope…
Pakistan's Wars
This book studies the wars Pakistan has fought over the years with India as well as other non-state actors. Focusing on the first Kashmir war (1947–48), the wars of 1965 and 1971, and the 1999 Kargil war, it analyses the elite decision-making, which leads to these conflicts and tries to understand how Pakistan got involved in the first place. The author applies the ‘gambling model’ to provide insights into the dysfunctional world view, risk-takin…
Landscapes of rizq
The city of Lahore, Pakistan, has expanded by 20% in the past twenty years alone. Lahore's exponential growth is fueled by a speculative real estate market that incentivizes quick trades of plots of land rather than constructing buildings. At the city's ever-expanding periphery, real estate developers armed with village maps and legal teams scout for cheap land, while agricultural landowners negotiate within extended families over whether to sell…
A Unique Study of Corruption in Bangladesh
Corruption is a vast and complex matter. It means any kinds of dishonest, defiled or illegal behavior, especially of people in authority. It is a major problem in the third world countries but it has been the burning question in Bangladesh. The list of the countries having rampant corruption is headed by Bangladesh several years. Transparency international found it as the most corrupted country. Corruption may originate from want, the immorality …

This chapter examines the use of English in Pakistan in different institutions, including schools, institutions of higher education, the state sector, the private sector, and the entertainment sector, with a view to understanding how English empowers and privileges the elite.

Personal Names and the Islamic Identity in Pakistan
Names are connected with several societal variables such as identity, power and the belief-system. This study examines the association of the personal names of Pakistani Muslims with perceptions of their religious (including sectarian) identities. Large data bases of names of Muslims in order to find the frequencies of Islamic components in their names will be examined so as to provide an index of religiosity and its type (Shi‘ah/Sunni/fundamenta…
Pakistan's policies and practices towards the religious minorities
The religious minorities of Pakistan suffer gross human rights abuses because the state has increasingly moved to the right in a bid to seek legitimacy and cohesiveness by using Islamic symbols and rhetoric in support of its rule. Thus, there are laws which discriminate against non-Muslim citizens exposing them to legal prosecution and extrajudicial persecution by their fellow citizens. As radical Islamic groups gain strength in the country, the …

Language ideology, identity and the commodification of language in the call centers of Pakistan
This article relates the language ideologies of Pakistan in general, and its call centers in particular, with the language policies and practices of the latter. The specific policy focused upon is the commodification of English with a near-native (American or British) accent as linguistic capital. These accents are indexed to the desired foreign identities which the workers of call centers perform in telephonic interaction with clients as part of…
Munāẓarah Literature in Urdu
This article looks at the institution of debate, the munāẓarah, in the religious education sector of Pakistan. It argues that the munāẓarah occupies an important position in madrasah education and the 'ulamā' create their identity around a core of differences from other sects, sub-sects and heretical or alien beliefs which are brought out in the open in munāẓarahs. Moreover, certain books and pamphlets embodying the form of argumentation and othe…

The Urdu -English Controversy in Pakistan
Pakistan is an ideologically inspired state and Urdu was a part of this ideology. During the development of Muslim separatism in British India it had become a symbol of Muslim identity and was the chief rival of Hindi, the symbol of Hindu identity (Brass, 1974: 119-81. Thus, after partition it was not surprising that the Muslim polemical and methodologically unreliable books. Some of them are, indeed, part of the pro-Urdu campaign by such officia…

Ephebophilia and the Creation of a Spiritual Myth in the Works of Ralph Nicholas Chubb
The writings of Chubb, a boy-lover inclined to spiritualism will be studied with a view to understanding how he created an exonerative myth to reconcile his sexual interest with his desire for spiritual fulfillment. In this myth Chubb is the prophet of a deity who looks like a young boy and loving boys has spiritual significance. Chubb's pre-modern perception of his sexual orientation helps us to understand the changing views of homosexuality. Th…
