...leadership. Every leader has his or her assets that contribute to their success, but with all success comes failures and flaws. As George R. Zalucki stated famously “Without failure there can be no success!”, this can be backed up with the experiences of Greg Mortenson, the co-founder and executive director of the non-profit Central Asia institute. Mortenson was climbing one of the highest peaks in the world called the K2 summit when he came across a village in the country of Pakistan. Here he had new customs and traditions to account for. He learned how important praying as a community was and how the community came together for many daily activities. It was important for him to encourage the heart of the villagers so that they would trust him. It was then when a little girl planted a seed into his brain, a seed of education. He had a vision of a better life for the children, especially the girls, in the country of Pakistan. So he made the promise to give this girl and her village a place to learn, and feel safe while learning. When he returned to the United States he couldn’t take his mind of this girl and her village. This is where Mortenson used a set of fine leadership skills, which was to inspire his vision amongst others around him. He wrote 580 letters to celebrities and businessmen through out the country about what he came across while in Pakistan, and how he wanted to build a better learning environment. However it wasn’t successful, for the only reply he received...

...but the lives of thousand of children in Pakistan. While building schools in Pakistan, Mortenson has helped transform the mindset of an entire nation about the value of education. Nye says that two-thirds of Americans believe they are in “leadership crisis” (Nye pre). After the collapse of the sub-prime housing market and recent economic struggles, who can blame them? Those who are looking for a leader, however, need look no further than Greg Mortenson. Joseph Nye defines a leader as one who “helps create and achieve shared goals” (Nye 18). A leader must act in a triangular system that involves the leader, his followers, and the context in which the situation exists (Nye 21). Mortenson works effectively as a member of the leadership triangle. He acts as the leader and his followers are the towns, villages, and refugee camps that receive the benefits of his schools, water systems, and community centers as well as his assistants and the members of the Central Asia Institute. The context in which Mortenson exercises his leadership is as equally important as the other two parts of the triangle. As Nye quotes Karl Marx as saying, “Men make their own history, but they do not make it as they please…but under circumstances existing already, given and transmitted from the past” (Nye 5). Mortenson takes the unique context and uses it to become a leader. At the time of Mortensen’s trip to Korphe, the educational system in Pakistan was deficient at best. Many towns and villages...

...people living in the land and still not be advantageous to them? This question explains that democracy is a cure to certain ills; it is the voice of people. However, democracy is not as clean as it looks from the outside, it does has its own foes that needs to be answered so for that purpose we are going to compare it with dictatorship and in conclusion establish which system is better than the other. Like democracy, dictatorship has also its own advantages and disadvantages. Dictatorship is believed to be a system where the power is centralized and rests with one person called the dictator. As it is a centralized system of governance it carries with it all the advantages a centralized system has and it has to cater to all the disadvantages a centralized system has to deal with. However, it is to be regretted in the very beginning that dictatorship has got a much worse of image as compared to democracy due to certain reasons, which is, dictatorship carries with it an image of dictators like Hitler and Saddam hussain, which maligns the image further than its actual image. Dictatorship is not a much supported system as can be imagined by the fact that UN (United Nations) endorses the democratic form of government and has established the “United Nations Democracy Fund” to strengthen democratic institutions and practices...

...socio-economic statuses. The exodus of people from both sides of the border was, and remains, incomprehensible. The breakout of violence in previously peaceful communities, the horrifying tales of tragedies of all parties involved and the politicized character of the event were of such multifaceted natures that a uniform historical account can not be formed. With this consideration, the literary writings provide a different insight, from a different perspective so as to study the partition with a holistic approach. There are many different perspectives, and these perspectives, whether political or literary, may have inherent biases. Therefore, this paper aims to present how the historical accounts vary due to political reasons in the states of Pakistan and India, and how revisionist thinkers have attempted to...

...core of nursing at its simplest application is to cause no harm and restore a person to health when possible. For years now, nurses have been working to close the health disparity gap and become culturally competent for our “melting pot” of minority cultures. Forbes magazine (2010) said only 18% of Americans speak a foreign language, compared to 53% of Europeans and growing numbers of others around the world who communicate in a foreign language. The 2007 census bureau lists 74 countries that have a large percentage of their population who speak English. Language barriers alone can have poor results for nursing care of culturally diverse populations. That being the case, nursing theory developed by nurses in the United States has obvious flaws. This paper will take a multifaceted look at the problems nursing in the United States face when caring for ethnic minorities without the use of culturally competent nursing theory based upon the patients cultural identity. By taking a look at a Pakistani patient, readers will have an understanding of how we unknowingly fail to provide adequate nursing care. The Role of Transcultural Nursing The United States has always deemed this country superior to all other countries in the world in all manners of living with medicine and nursing not being an exception. We have held close to the idea that all other countries should adapt and adopt to our ways of practicing government, religion, work ethic, culture family lifestyles and even our language...

...Undergraduate Students in Elite Educational Institutes of Lahore Danyal Haider Raja Qaiser Zeeshan Butt Osama Eshaq Rabia Nafees Shah Academic Writing June 27th 2015 Lahore School of Economics Sexual Harassment of Female Secondary to Undergraduate Students in Elite Educational Institutes of Lahore Introduction The idea for this research sprung from the rising trend of illicit student-teacher relationships in the United States of America, projected actively on the social media. This movement inspired the thought that such behavior may well be prevalent in Pakistan as well and never come to the forefront. The research aims to identify the types of harassment that exist in the secondary and undergraduate sectors of education in Pakistan and the reasons why these incidents are not brought to the attention of the legal system. So far there has not been a study on female sexual harassment in Pakistan that explores the incidence of harassment among the female student community, which is irksome especially given the recent accusations of harassment leveled against an instructor at the Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), a prestigious university in a posh area of Lahore. One would assume that such an incident would be stimulus enough for rights’ groups to initiate a research into this aspect of female harassment, which is why we have taken it upon ourselves to do so. The research will be primary in nature, conducted through the distribution of a total of...

ABSTRACT: There has been a shift in development paradigms reflected in the discourse of international funding bodies, from technocratic aid modalities associated with Washington Consensus models towards a ‘new development paradigm’ that accompanies post-Washington Consensus economic prescriptions. This new development paradigm relies increasingly on NGOs for channeling funds, while granting more space for government regulation and emphasizing participatory approaches. The...
