Purpose: This study is “Role of Television Talk Shows in Political Conflict Resolution after General Elections 2013: A Study of Pakistan Tehreek e Insaaf and Pakistan Muslim League –N”. The research has aimed to explore the role of political talk shows in resolving the political conflict between PTI and PML-N, to assess their issues regarding their conflict, to examine the discussion on matters of common interest among them and to compare and analyze the discussion on matters of common interests and disputing issues between PTI and PML-N in television political talk shows. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research has used quantitative content analysis for collecting data and has concluded that the political talk shows have not been playing a positive role in resolving the political conflict between conflicting parties and moreover the role of political talk shows has been escalating in the process of political conflict resolution between PTI and PML-N. Findings: This study has also concluded that the role of anchor persons has not facilitated the discussion of talk shows towards a need of any possible solution regarding the discussed problem between PTI and PML-N. Implications/Originality/Value: It has been concluded that the political talk shows have highlighted the disputing and controversial issues between the conflicting parties instead of discussing the matters of common interests among them. The political talk shows have not encouraged a need of any possible solution regarding the political conflict resolution between PTI and PML-N after general elections 2013.

Purpose: This article, analyze causal relation of conflicts, political distance and Pakistan's import flows. The severity of interstate military conflicts is higher between Pakistan and India. While the animosity and chauvinism between Pakistan and India increase the intensity of both armed and verbal conflicts. Comparing interstate-armed conflicts and interstate military verbal conflicts, the former has more severity than later. Methodology: The Gravity model is used to analyze the relationship between conflicts, political distance and Pakistan's import volume. The panel data consist on 171 countries and 1980 to 2013time period. Findings: Conflict between Pakistan and India, the interstate-armed conflicts are less impactful than interstate military verbal conflicts on import volume. The other important finding is the changing role of political distance. Political distance significantly reduces Pakistan's import volume when we regress interstate military conflicts and political distance between Pakistan and its importing partners. Interstate military conflicts between Pakistan and India and political distance between Pakistan and its importing partners show less intensity to reduce Pakistan's imports. Implications: Pakistan replaced the United States of America with China as major partners that share a significant proportion of its import market due to close political preferences. At the same time, there was no significant trade between Pakistan and India because both countries indulge in military conflicts.

Purpose: This study determines the influence of information gained from electronic word of mouth (e-WOM) on the purchase behavior of customers. Design/Methodology/Approach: The conceptual model developed has been derived from the Information Acceptance Model (IAM) and the work of other researchers. The pre-existing model has been modified by increasing the factors which augment the information usefulness of e-WOM. The factor of trust inclination towards information received through online forums has also been incorporated in the model to further develop an understanding regarding the variables in the purchase decision process. This study also highlights some aspects of theory of reasoned action and theory of planned behavior as a base for this work. Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) has been used to analyze the relationship between all existing variables in the linear model. Findings: The results show how usefulness of information obtained through social networking sites and other online media influence the adoption of this information, eventually leading to developing intention and terminal purchase behavior. However, the relationship of credibility of information, perceived risk and argument quality with information usefulness, as its antecedents, has been found insignificant, one of the primary reason for which is the unawareness of e-WOM among the general public. Implications/Originality/Value: The practical implications of this paper include guidance to manufacturers and service providers to understand the factors involved in influencing consumer purchase behavior when subjected to e-WOM.

Objective: The COVID-19 virus disrupted the international system and trade patterns, resulting in panic and public health crises throughout the globe. The COVID-19 epidemic sparked a financial catastrophe with far-reaching consequences that outstripped the global financial crisis. The goal of this research is to see how the changes brought on by the COVID-19 epidemic affect global inflation and the jobs of individuals causing unemployment. This article is divided into two sections, considering inflation and unemployment the COVID-19 globally. Methodology: The methodology adopted for this study is empirical documentary research selecting first-hand research produced by international governmental and non-governmental organizations, newspapers, research articles of all categories as well as research published in scholarly journals available at online databases such as Taylor and Francis and JSTOR. The analysis has been done by applying the technique of content analysis. Findings: According to estimates, the virus slowed global economic growth in 2020 to roughly -3.2 percent on an annualised basis, with a recovery of 5.9 percent expected in 2021. Implications: According to consensus projections, the economic slump in 2020 will be less severe than previously anticipated, thanks in part to the fiscal and monetary policies implemented by governments in 2020.

Purpose: The main theme of the present study was to provide previous empirical and other literature reviews of sovereignty and statehood in Islam and particularly its compression with modern times. Approach: Prior study on statehood was examined from various aspects. Findings: It has been releveled that Statehood and sovereignty is one of the important elements of an Islamic state in the modern world. Besides, in Islam, one of the greatest attributes of God is sovereignty. However, the western notion of sovereignty developed by declining God’s sovereignty is rejected on two grounds; the first slam lacks any historical evidence to grant ultimate power to any political authority or ruler. Second, the notion of sovereignty in a specific historical and present social European setting is an attempt to undermine the absolute authority of the church. Notwithstanding, there are three notions of Islamic sovereignty. Implications: The study concluded that in the Islamic State, sovereignty belongs to Allah and Allah is the only one who rules which is viewed in the form of divine laws and Jurisprudence. The interpretation of this rule of sovereignty as that there is no concept of people’s sovereignty in Islam is not correct because Allah cannot be an immediate ruler in the political connotation.

Purpose: - Case studies of 12 automotive supply chains are used to build a theory of multi-tier supply chain management (SCM) processes integration which links patterns of multi-tier process integration with cost and differentiation strategies of the focal firms. Design/Methodology/Approach: The cases build on previous researches by examining the rationales and extents in which a focal firm integrates the key supply chain management processes across first, second and third-tier suppliers, logistics service providers and authorized dealers. Data was collected in two rounds, followed by codification and analysis. Findings: The analyses suggest that firms with lower scope and span of process integration prioritized cost efficiency and firms with larger scope and span of process integration prioritized both cost efficiency and customer service differentiation. As a result, propositions for explaining strategic priorities driving multi-tier SCM process integration are developed. Implications/Originality/Value: This study provides managerial accounts and theoretical foundation to explain the needs for different levels, scopes and span of SCM process integration and the extent to which the span of integration (tiers) should be extended.

Purpose: In the past, a number of research studies have been done on bullying, but most of them are in the context of student’s bullying students. The present study highlighted an important issue of teachers being bullied by their students. The purpose of the study was to examine the perception and behavior of teachers about teacher targeted bullying (TTB) and prevention of TTB. Design/Methodology/Approach: This study was quantitative in nature. The sample comprised of all public and private tertiary education institutions/ colleges of Lahore. The data was collected from one hundred fifty teachers through cluster sampling technique from six public and private tertiary education institutions/ colleges. A self-developed instrument, comprising of statements on frequency, perception, behavior and preventive measures on teacher targeted bullying was used to collect data from respondents. Findings: The results indicate that the teachers’ awareness level about TTB is low. Furthermore, they are also not aware about the types of bullying they are facing. The response of teachers on preventing bullying is also not very positive while very less teachers are prone to take preventive measures to stop or reduce bullying. The tests on demographic variables indicate that there is difference in opinion on basis of age and work experience of teachers towards teacher targeted bullying. Implications: Based on results it can be recommended that there is need to aware teachers and administrators about teacher targeted bullying so that they can voice up against it. Additionally, this can also be recommended that the policy clauses should be added and displayed at institutes about teacher targeted bullying.

Purpose: This study identifies the types and nature of media discourses of child rape that may be intended to maintain gender ideologies and power relations around normative sexual practices. Design/Methodology/Approach: This research study is conducted from the social constructivist perspective about gender and sex in connection with the dynamics of power relations in the Pakistani social system Data for analysis consisted of all editorials and opinion columns about the Hussain Khan Wala Case in the Urdu newspaper daily Nawa-e-Waqt and English newspaper Dawn. Hussain Khan Wala’s case was a highlight in the media in August 2015. The victims were minor and the incident grabbed the most attention of the press and public. For discourse analysis, newspaper articles (editorials and opinion columns) were selected because these texts present detailed discussion (nature of the problem, causes, effects, solutions, and value judgments) about the phenomenon. Findings: In theoretical terms, Pakistani media dominantly discusses child sexual abuse including rape in the context of political power disparity in rural and urban areas. In Pakistani media, child rape is delinked from adult rape and sexual practices. The blame for child sexual abuse is shifted to political and administrative officialdom. Implications/Originality/Value: The media is structurally and ideologically unsuitable for conservative values and unable to disseminate the values of shame, modesty, piety, and dignity.

For discourse analysis, newspaper articles (editorials and opinion columns) were selected because these texts present detailed discussion (nature of the problem, causes, effects, solutions, and value judgments) about the phenomenon. \u0000Findings: In theoretical terms, Pakistani media dominantly discusses child sexual abuse including rape in the context of political power disparity in rural and urban areas. In Pakistani media, child rape is delinked from adult rape and sexual practices. The blame for child sexual abuse is shifted to political and administrative officialdom. \u0000Implications/Originality/Value: The media is structurally and ideologically unsuitable for conservative values and unable to disseminate the values of shame, modesty, piety, and dignity.","PeriodicalId":34116,"journal":{"name":"Sustainable Business and Society in Emerging Economies","volume":"54 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77927093","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Purpose: This research was an effort to address radicalisation among students with disabilities: Different ways government can support school and teachers in preventing violence and extremism. Design/Methodology/Approach: The vast majority of the population was created by the special education teachers working in Punjab's public and private schools for disabled pupils. All special education teachers who work with a range of disabilities make up the study's population. A simple random selection method was used to choose a sample of 100 instructors. The tool was a self-structured questionnaire that was primarily divided into two sections: one section acknowledged the demographic characteristics of special education instructors, and the other asked participants' opinions on five-point Likert scales (Strongly Agree to Strongly Disagree) regarding risk factors for violence and extremism as well as potential guidelines for preventing violence and extremism. The questionnaire's reliability and validity were confirmed. Special educators gathered the data using face-to-face, telephone, email, social media, and online meetings. The gathered data were assessed using descriptive and inferential statistics in terms of frequencies and percentages. Findings: The conclusions drawn demonstrated that students with disabilities were more highly probable to become radicalised when they experienced low self-esteem, mental health problems, traumatic experiences, childhood abuse, and family rejection, among other risk factors. These inferences were followed by recommendations for preventing violence and extremism. Implications/Originality/Value: The Directorate General of Special Education and the administration of private special education institutions were exhorted to take prompt action to develop a school-based preventative programme for children with disabilities.
