Uncontested Engagements

In the Preface to a new book (to be published next month) which examines Pakistan’s political economy afresh, having lamented the state of social science discourse in Pakistan, I write,

I have more hope and expectation from a growing set of younger academics who proceed for, or have just completed, their doctoral dissertations. This younger generation of social scientist, one hopes, will add its contribution to many of the debates which take place regarding social change and transformation in Pakistan, as did an older generation three decades ago (Zaidi 2014a: vii).
