Denizens of Alien Worlds

DESCRIPTION
A study of education, inequality and polarization in Pakistan.

The alien worlds described in this book are the three major streams of school education in Pakistan: Islamic seminaries (madrassas), Urdu-medium schools and elitist English-medium schools. The streams represent socio-economic inequality as they cater to the different socio-economic classes in the country. Moreover, the students of these three systems of education have widely divergent views about war and militancy (regarding Kashmir), tolerance (of religious minorities) and gender equality, with the madrassa and the elitist English school students being at the opposite ends of the spectrum. Such divergent views suggest that Pakistani society is polarized and that this could be potentially alarming in an uncertain post-9/11 world.

The book provides new material and suggestions for the improvement of all educational institutions, including higher education, so as to create a society that values knowledge, justice and harmony.
