“…In social change, orthodox society is replaced by liberal society. Likewise, when there is change in any aspect of a political system, is the political change (Packenham, 2015). In political change, democracy replaces the dictatorship.…”

This study was designed to analyze the political development of Pakistan in respect of Lucian Pye's theory of Political Development. Political development is a process of change in the political scenario of a country. It enhances the capability, effectiveness and efficiency of performance of a political system. The data was collected from the students of M.S/M.Phil, PhD, and faculty members of the department of political Science, History, Pakistan Studies and International Relations to the public and private sector universities of Punjab province of Pakistan. A questionnaire was developed to collect the data from respondents. The data was analyzed by applying descriptive as well as inferential statistics and results were generalized. The results of Building of Democracy in respect of Lucian Pye's theory of Political Development showed that the level of political development remained low in Pakistan. This study recommends that government should take measures to change parochial and conflictive political culture.

“…Applying Thomas Kuhn's seminal view of paradigmatic knowledge production, to what extent does ‘resilience’ constitute its own paradigm within development studies? Tracing the career of resilience in development knowledge production, it adds a new chapter to the political and intellectual history of development studies (e.g., Amin et al, 1978; Gendzier, 1985; Hettne, 1990; Larrain, 1989; Mkandawire, 2011; Packenham, 1973; Park, 2017, Preston, 1982).…”

Understanding resilience in sustainable development: Rallying call or siren song?

This article asks how the concept of resilience has been used in development studies. Set amidst the rise of resilience in sustainable development, it offers insights for scholars and policymakers, alike. Sampling 419 journal articles from 2017 to 2022, it uses Kuhnian paradigms to analyse development knowledge production on resilience. This produces three key findings. First is the absence of a coherent resilience paradigm (with shared definitions, problems and methods) in development studies. Second is its use, instead, by incumbent development paradigms in piecemeal fashion to extend and/or repackage pre‐existing arguments. Third are ensuing possibilities for resilience as both a rallying call and siren song in sustainable development. Ultimately, resilience‐based research and policy discourses open vital space for collective action across interdisciplinary and international divides. However, a lack of critical awareness of its non‐uniform use can produce more harm than help. If the language of resilience is to advance collective prospects for development cooperation and climate action, then it will help to know precisely what we each are talking about.
