Abstract:
Sadia Shepard’s Foreign-Returned talks about the life of Pakistani immigrants in America, especially Hasan, who struggle to live a better life in the U.S. American values become the main focus in this study to see their influences in certain characters’ point of view of this short story. The data are selected conversations and the narrations in Sadia Shepard’s Foreign-Returned as well as traditional American values and the sociological data of Pakistani Diaspora in America in the 2000s. This research reveals that most of the characters, both first- and second-generation Pakistani immigrants, practice American values in certain ways. However, values are fluid. Not everyone in the U.S.A believes in American values; on the other hand, non-Americans are possible to practice American values. In brief, how much the American values influence the characters' minds and behavior does not depend on whether they are first- or second-generation immigrants.

Abstract:
This study was aimed at exploring the role of Fulbright program in building perception about U.S. and Americans among Pakistani Fulbright scholars. While a host of theory and research had been growing on contact theory (Allport, 1954; Pettigrew & Tropp, 2008), application of contact hypothesis to cultural exchange programs based on foreign policy intended to develop peace and affective ties between nations has been limited. Specifically, this research gap was filled by this study that focused on the impact of direct contact on perception and image of the U.S. in the context of the U.S. and Pakistan Fulbright program. Pakistani Fulbright scholars (81 men, 67 women; Mean age = 23 years; Range = 21-29 years), with low-contact and high-contact were compared with respect to their perceptions of a prototypical American and the United States as an international entity. Compared to participants with low-contact (n = 52), participants with high-contact (n = 96) had developed a higher positive perception of a prototypical American. Furthermore, compared to participants with low-contact, those with high-contact perceived the U.S. significantly more as an ally and less as an imperialist-enemy nation. Participation was controlled through selection for the Fulbright program and no previous visits to the U.S. Discussion has focused on possibilities for foreign policy and peace related implications of the Fulbright program.

Abstract:
Asian Americans comprise the fastest growing racial or ethnic group in the US. Between 2000 and 2019, their numbers almost doubled, from 11.9 million to 22.2 million. The numbers of people with disabilities within this demographically important population, which are also growing, puts stress on the service delivery sector. This situation indicates a pressing need for research on lived experiences of disabled Asian Americans. A review of the extant literature shows that Asian Americans are underrepresented in the research on disability and/or mental health. This lack of hard data is compounded by the tendency to treat Asian ethnicities as monolithic. The US Census Bureau recognizes more than 20 distinct Asian nationalities, ranging from South Asian Pakistani Americans to Southeast Asian Americans. Aggregating all Asian Americans together in surveys and studies impedes a sophisticated understanding of their unique needs and strengths. From a policy or systems perspective, inadequate data representation in the research literature, including outdated conclusions, is an implicit form of disenfranchisement. This conceptual article examines issues and implications around the lack of systematic attention to diversity within the Asian American population in disability research.

Abstract:
Studies of Orientalized portrayals of Muslims have generally been distinct from studies on the Othering of immigrant Americans. This study employs concepts of insider/outsider status, applying theories of Orientalism and representations of the Other to newspaper coverage of the Muslim and Pakistani American perpetrator of the 2010 attempted Times Square bombing. Newspapers constructed a seemingly contradictory representation of Faisal Shahzad, as the apparent insider/American who becomes the alienated outsider/Other. This portrayal of the Orientalized insider establishes an emerging discourse on the “homegrown” terrorist who exists at the boundary of self and Other.

Abstract:
The year 2020 has been an unusual year due to the pandemic and related issues, during which newspapers have been the most impactful medium for communication. The purpose of this research is to investigate how covid-19 has been visually represented and verbally communicated to readers in Pakistan and America through newspapers. The objectives of the study are to investigate the social identities given to the participants in the pictures and secondly, how the pandemic has been experienced in the verbal news reports to create a reality. Linguistic data has been analyzed by using the Transitivity kit, developed by Halliday in Systemic Functional Linguistics (2014), while the visuals are analyzed through the Visual Grammar Theory, presented by Kress and Leeuwen (2006). Visuals projects Pakistanis as rebellious, lawbreakers, and Chinese as victorious and strugglers, while Americans have portrayed the Chinese as inferior and in utter chaos to handle the pandemic. Similarly, in both countries material processes are the most frequent leading to the verbal and the least used mental processes, but both have used them to develop different ideologies, in Pakistani’s case, authorities have been shown highly sensitive towards socioeconomic issues of hunger and despite their best efforts they have been advised to be patient and take it as a trial of God. On the other hand, Americans have been shown striving for developing the vaccine, and at the same considering the virus as a petty issue, yet ready to combat it on all fronts.

Abstract:
In this essay, I draw on ethnographic research with South Asian Muslim American gay men of Pakistani descent in Houston to explore everyday negotiations of religion, race, sexuality and transnationalism. The essay highlights three intersecting registers that situate gay Muslim American sexual cultural formations in local, transnational and cultural contexts. Drawing on participant observation and oral life history interviews, this essay examines: (a) culturally constructed male sexualities that are informed by the scripts, language, and cultural idioms of homo-sociality and same-sex eroticism, love and relationships in the homeland; (b) the increasing centrality of belonging to a transnational Muslim ummah; and (c) the appropriation of western terminologies and categories of sexuality in constructing a gay identity. The narratives examined in this essay contribute to cultural analyses of transnational sexual cultures, and ethnographies of Muslim Americans and LGBTQIA immigrant communities in the West.

Abstract:
12069 Background: Despite the benefits of early palliative care (PC), inequities exist in receipt of PC for patients diagnosed with metastatic cancer. We sought to characterize disparities in receipt of PC for disaggregated Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AA&NHPI) patients with metastatic prostate, breast, or lung cancer. Methods: The National Cancer Database (NCDB) allows for evaluation of receipt of palliative care as part of first line of treatment. Therefore, we analyzed patients with metastatic breast, lung, or prostate cancer between 2004-2018 who were White (largest reference group) or of self-identified Asian Indian/Pakistani, Chinese, Filipino, Native Hawaiian, Hmong, Japanese, Kampuchean, Korean, Laotian, Pacific Islander, Thai, or Vietnamese descent. Multivariable logistic regressions defined adjusted odds ratios and 95% confidence intervals of receiving palliative care when comparing i) White vs. AA&NHPI patients as a single cohort and ii) White vs. disaggregated AA&NHPI patients, adjusting for clinical, socioeconomic, and demographic covariates. Results: Among 775,289 individuals diagnosed with metastatic cancer, no significant differences in PC receipt were observed between White patients and aggregated AA&NHPI patients among patients with prostate cancer, breast cancer, or lung cancer. However, disaggregated analyses revealed reduced palliative care receipt for patients with breast cancer of Asian Indian/Pakistani descent (AOR=0.75, P=0.011) and for patients with lung cancer of Chinese, Vietnamese, Thai, and Asian Indian/Pakistani descent compared to White patients (Chinese AOR=0.88, P=0.001; Vietnamese AOR=0.89, P=0.032; Thai AOR=0.64, P=0.016; Asian Indian/Pakistani AOR=0.83, P=0.001). Receipt of PC was greater for patients of Japanese and Hawaiian descent with prostate cancer (Japanese AOR=1.92, P=0.001; Hawaiian AOR=2.09, P=0.009), breast cancer (Japanese AOR=1.72, P=0.001; Hawaiian AOR=1.70, P=0.021), and lung cancer (Japanese AOR=1.92, P <0.001; Hawaiian AOR=2.95, P<0.001), as well as patients of Pacific Islander descent with lung cancer (AOR=1.62, P<0.001). Conclusions: Although in aggregate AA&NHPI patients were no less likely to receive PC than White patients, we found significant within-group disparities among AA&NHPI patients with metastatic cancer. Patients of Asian Indian/Pakistani, Chinese, Vietnamese, and Thai descent were less likely to receive PC, underscoring the need for i) disaggregated research on PC access and ii) targeted interventions to address cultural, socioeconomic, and healthcare system barriers that contribute to the disparities in PC among patients with cancer.

Abstract:
PURPOSE: We identified (1) differences in localized prostate cancer (PCa) risk group at presentation and (2) disparities in access to initial treatment for Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) men with PCa after controlling for sociodemographic factors. METHODS: We assessed all patients in the National Cancer Database with localized PCa with low-, intermediate-, and high-risk disease who identified as Thai, White, Asian Indian, Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Japanese, Filipino, Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, Laotian, Pakistani, Kampuchean, and Hmong. Multivariable logistic regression defined adjusted odds ratios (AORs) with 95% CI of (1) presenting at progressively higher risk group and (2) receiving treatment or active surveillance with intermediate- or high-risk disease, adjusting for sociodemographic and clinical factors. RESULTS: Among 980,889 men (median age 66 years), all AANHPI subgroups with the exception of Thai (AOR = 0.84 [95% CI, 0.58 to 1.21], P > .05), Asian Indian (AOR = 1.12 [95% CI, 1.00 to 1.25], P > .05), and Pakistani (AOR = 1.34 [95% CI, 0.98 to 1.83], P > .05) men had greater odds of presenting at a progressively higher PCa risk group compared with White patients (Chinese AOR = 1.18 [95% CI, 1.11 to 1.25], P < .001; Japanese AOR = 1.36 [95% CI, 1.26 to 1.47], P < .001; Filipino AOR = 1.37 [95% CI, 1.29 to 1.46], P < .001; Korean AOR = 1.32 [95% CI, 1.18 to 1.48], P < .001; Vietnamese AOR = 1.20 [95% CI, 1.07 to 1.35], P = .002; Laotian AOR = 1.60 [95% CI, 1.08 to 2.36], P = .018; Hmong AOR = 4.07 [95% CI, 1.54 to 10.81], P = .005; Kampuchean AOR = 1.55 [95% CI, 1.03 to 2.34], P = .036; Asian Indian or Pakistani AOR = 1.15 [95% CI, 1.07 to 1.24], P < .001; Native Hawaiians AOR = 1.58 [95% CI, 1.38 to 1.80], P < .001; and Pacific Islanders AOR = 1.58 [95% CI, 1.37 to 1.82], P < .001). Additionally, Japanese Americans (AOR = 1.46 [95% CI, 1.09 to 1.97], P = .013) were more likely to receive treatment compared with White patients. CONCLUSION: Our findings suggest that there are differences in PCa risk group at presentation by race or ethnicity among Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander subgroups and that there exist disparities in treatment patterns. Although AANHPI are often studied as a homogenous group, heterogeneity upon subgroup disaggregation underscores the importance of further study to assess and address barriers to PCa care.

Abstract:
Out of 14.4% of Asian Americans in the state of California, and 5.4% in the United States, Pakistani-Americans are one sub-group, out of ten. Pakistani- Americans are either born in, or have familial ties back to the country of Pakistan. This research emphasizes on the lack of knowledge or awareness of mental health, and more importantly, the perceptions of mental health amongst Pakistani-Americans. The topic of mental illness within the Pakistani community is almost taboo and never spoken about with individuals outside of the family. With Islamic laws having a huge a huge influence on the Pakistani culture, people tend to turn to the religion to find answers. Using a qualitative approach, the researcher was able to conduct interviews and find 7 emerging themes; perceptions on seeking mental health treatment, where individuals would prefer to be treated for mental health issues, the significant role of religion, sharing problems and issues growing up, different cultural practices associated with psychological distress, identifying depression and anxiety as a mental illness, and the idea of Schizophrenia vs seeing or hearing Jinns. The researcher was able to conclude that Pakistani-American’s have shown growth in the understanding of mental health symptoms, however are still behind in understanding what is classified as a mental health issue and what is not.

Abstract:
This research paper investigates the current turmoil in Pakistan and how much of it has been caused by the joint American-Pakistani War on Terror. The United States' portion of the War on Terror is in Afghanistan against the Al-Qaeda and Taliban forces that began after the September 11th attacks in 2001, as well as in Pakistan with unmanned drone attacks. Pakistan's portion of this war includes the support to the U.S. in Afghanistan and military campaigns within it's own borders against Taliban forces. Taliban forces have fought back against Pakistan with terrorist attacks and bombings that continue to ravage the nation. There have been a number of consequences from this war upon Pakistani society, one of particular importance to the U.S. is the increased anti-American sentiment. The war has also resulted in weak and widely unpopular leaders. The final major consequence this study examines is the increased conflict amongst the many ethnicities within Pakistan. The consequences of this war have had an effect on local, regional, American, and international politics.

This thesis is a review of U.S. foreign policy in Pakistan through a realist lens. It critiques the current state of U.S. policy and recommends that the United States prioritize national security interests, particularly with regards to counterterrorism, over building Pakistani democracy and running civilian aid programs. It then further recommends ways for the United States government to account for ground level dynamics in Pakistani politics in crafting foreign policy aimed at bringing Pakistan into line with U.S. counterterrorism priorities.

Abstract:
Cette étude vise à identifier les facteurs ou déterminants de la politique étrangère américaine envers le Pakistan. Les relations pakistano-américaines affectent la vie de millions de personnes dans le monde, ce qui établit l'importance de cette étude. Le Pakistan occupe une position vitale dans le dispositif américain de politique étrangère en raison de la guerre en cours contre le terrorisme mais aussi des desseins américains dans la région de l'Asie du Sud. Le paradigme théorique réaliste néoclassique et la théorie de la prise de décision ont été choisis pour la réalisation de l'étude. Deux catégories de déterminants de la politique étrangère américaine envers le Pakistan ont été identifiées. Tout d'abord, les déterminants au niveau de l’individu et de l'Etat, comprenant l’intérêt national américain dans la région, l’amoralité, la politique intérieure et les acteurs, le leadership, et la promotion de la démocratie au Pakistan. En second lieu, les déterminants aux niveaux régional et international d'analyse, à savoir l'importance géostratégique du Pakistan, les armes nucléaires du Pakistan, la considération de puissance, le facteur indien, l'Afghanistan et la guerre contre le terrorisme. L'étude conclut que la méfiance endémique prévaudra parmi les alliés, mais que ses effets négatifs seront atténués par les considérations géostratégiques de la région
This study intended to find out the factors or determinants that shape the American foreign policy towards Pakistan. Pak-US relations affect the lives of millions of the people around the globe, thus establishing the importance of the study. Pakistan holds a vital position with the American foreign policy dispositions because of: the ongoing war against terrorism, and the American grand designs in the South Asian region. Neoclassical realism as the theoretical paradigm, and the lenses of poliheuristic theory of decision-making were used for the conduct of the study. Two categories of the determinants of the American foreign policy towards Pakistan were pointed out. First, Individual and State level determinants, comprising the American national interest in the region, amoralism, domestic politics and actors, leadership, and democracy promotion in Pakistan. Second, determinants lying at Regional and International level of analysis, namely: the geostrategic importance of Pakistan, Pakistan’s nuclear weapons, power considerations, the Indian factor, Afghanistan and the War against terrorism. The study concludes that the endemic mistrust will prevail among the allies, but that its negative effects will be mitigated by the geostrategic considerations in the region

Abstract:
Also, a lower level of heterosocial anxiety was found to be negatively correlated with assimilation to U.S culture, which may have attributed to less heterosocial iv anxiety was found to be negatively correlated with assimilation to U.S culture, which may have attributed to less heterosocial anxiety in Pakistani women.; This present study will examine the psychopathology of Pakistani American females through the context of cultural means. Research in the past has shown that Asian Americans report higher levels of distress as well as higher levels of anxiety relative to their European American counterparts. Thus, social anxiety may manifest itself differently among Asian Americans because of the cultural and ethnic variations in psychopathology. This study will aim to examine cultural differences in social anxiety because it may help explain the etiology of social as well as heterosocial anxiety and facilitate in forming better diagnostic assessments, scales and treatments for non-mainstream cultural groups such as Pakistanis and potentially other South Asian groups living in the United States. Additionally, Pakistani women have limited interactions with the opposite sex because of the religious and cultural background that emphasizes modesty and arranged marriage. Medical research suggests that Muslim women of Asian backgrounds, have requested female health care service providers rather than male providers. Given the cultural and sociological influences that impact psychopathology, it was hypothesized that Pakistani American women will report more heterosocial anxiety than European American women and that their heterosocial anxiety will be related to parental influence on mate choice and American acculturation. Results indicated that European women reported higher levels of heterosocial and social anxiety in comparison to Pakistani women. This may have occurred due to the Pakistani women in this sample not being truly representative of the Pakistani population as they were all young, college students.

Abstract:
La nécessité de recherche sur le triangle diplomatique sino-pakistanaise-américaine se fait sentir comme le sujet n'a jamais été étudié systématiquement avant. La relation triangulaire est importante pour de multiples raisons. Tout d'abord, la zone d'influence et la pertinence du Pakistan est dans une sphère géopolitique actif où la compétition pour le statut de puissance pour l'avenir se joue vigoureusement. Deuxièmement, la Chine et les Etats-Unis sont profondément impliqués avec le Pakistan et avec les régions limitrophes du Pakistan. Troisièmement, ce triangle stratégique comprend au moins trois régions géopolitiques saillants, à savoir l'Asie du Sud, l'Asie centrale et le Moyen-Orient, tirant ainsi, par la portée de cette étude, la politique étrangère et les questions internes de ces pays importants comme l'Inde, l'Arabie Saoudite , l'Iran et l'Afghanistan. Enfin, la politique étrangère de Pakistanais implique les préoccupations et les intérêts des Américains et les Chinois. Islamabad possède la réserve géopolitique d'influencer le rôle et la place de Washington et Pékin dans les régions stratégiques de l'Asie du Sud, l'Asie centrale et le Moyen-Orient
The need for research on the Sino-Pakistani-American diplomatic triangle is felt as the subject was never systematically researched before. The triangular relation is important for a multitude of reasons. Firstly, the region of influence and relevance of Pakistan is in an active geopolitical sphere where the contest for power status for the future is being vigorously played out. Secondly, China and the US are deeply involved with Pakistan and with the regions surrounding Pakistan. Thirdly, this strategic triangle encompasses at least three salient geopolitical regions, namely South Asia, Central Asia and the Middle East, thus pulling in, for the purview of this study, foreign policies and or internal matters of such important countries as India, Saudi Arabia, Iran and Afghanistan. Fourthly, the foreign policy decision-making by the Pakistanis involves the concerns and interests of both the Americans and the Chinese. Islamabad has the geopolitical reserve to influence the role and place of Washington and Beijing in the strategic regions of South Asia, Central Asia and the Middle East

Abstract:
Abstract Subsurface data management is one of the prime challenges confronting today's E&P industry. Oil & Gas companies are generating substantial amount of data in E&P operations to achieve their strategic goals. The fact that E&P companies are using multi-vendor technologies makes the case of standard procedures, consistent nomenclature, and data synchronization even more compelling to achieve the uniformity of data and related mnemonics across their databases. This in-turn maximizes the efficiency & potential of existing organizational resources along with facilitating the instant data access & data sharing among common end-users (geologist, petrophysicist, geophysicist etc.). United Energy Pakistan, formerly known as BP Pakistan, has a hybrid environment of multi-vendor technologies supporting its operation requirement of data and information management and archival. Its assets have a rich heritage, starting nearly four decades ago when an American E&P company, Union Texas Pakistan, initiated operations in Pakistan. Since then, several changes and a shift in ownership several times has resulted challenges to manage the assets and underlying data. Corporate Data Governance and ManagementProject was embarked to address geoscience end user challenges regarding access to validated data and cleaning of working environment. The journey began with a data management maturity assessment few years ago. This helped to identify gaps in the existing data management processes and systems. An integrated roadmap was developed to bridge the gaps with identified digital initiatives and solutions. A vendor neutral and technology agnostic approach was used to perform the site assessment. A conformance study, prior to the commencement of project, was conducted to assess the "Current State" of G&G Working project databases and to articulate the "Future State" with special emphasis on providing centralized, quality assured and integrated data environment. The study highlighted the key areas of Geoscience working environment that require improvement. Some of the key findings of study indicated huge number of working projects, data dissemination, Lack of Standards, incompleteness, inadequate dataflow mechanism and procedures, data redundancy, and inability of data search and access.

Abstract:
<p>With many of the Karachi bridges that are built before the adoption of modern philosophies of design, are structurally deficient and degraded, owing to the ageing effects and non-existent maintenance. In most cases, these bridges as they approach their service lifetime are now carrying much higher volume and heavier loaded freight vehicles, which warrants continuous assessment of their safety to increased operational loads and seismicity, before deciding on their optimal management.</p><p>A pre-stressed concrete bridge (PSC) located in Karachi is investigated for structural deficiencies and possible weakening based on a three-tier approach, including Non-Destructive Evaluation (NDE) and seismic evaluation. The study results show that the overall behaviour of the bridge structure has adequate strength to meet the West Pakistan Highway Code (WPHC) [1] and American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) 2006 [2] code demands.</p>

Full text
Abstract:
This article addresses an issue of growing political importance: the global rise of civilizational populism. From Western Europe to India and Pakistan, and from Indonesia to the Americas, populists are increasingly linking national belonging with civilizational identity—and at times to the belief that the world is divided into religion-based civilizations, some of which are doomed to clash with one another. As part of this process, Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, and Christianity have all been commandeered by populist parties and movements, each adept at using the power of religion—in different ways and drawing on different aspects of religion—to define the boundary of concepts such as people, nation, and civilization.

Abstract:
Although populism has become a focus of research in the last decade, there hasn’t been much academic work on how militaries around the world have reacted/acted to the rise of populist leaders. There is some timeworn research on the relationship of militaries in Latin America with various left-wing populist governments and leaders from the 1930s to 1970s. Given that populism was largely understood in the context of left-wing politics, with the rise of right-wing populism, the literature on the military and populism needs to be advanced by studying the relationship between right-wing populism and the military. This article aims to address this gap by looking at the right-wing populism case study of Pakistan, where the military has actively participated in the rise of a religious populist leader. To situate the case study within the larger literature of the military and populism, the dynamics and history of military associations with populism and populist leaders are revisited in the article’s first part.

Abstract:
Turkey, Pakistan, India, Malaysia, and Indonesia span one of the longest continuously inhabited regions of the world. Centuries of cultural infusion have ensured these societies are highly heterogeneous. As plural polities, they are ripe for the kind of freedoms that liberal democracy can guarantee. However, despite having multi-party electoral systems, these countries have recently moved toward populist authoritarianism. Populism —once considered a distinctively Latin American problem that only seldom reared its head in other parts of the world— has now found a home in almost every corner of the planet. Moreover, it has latched on to religion, which, as history reminds us, has an unparalleled power to mobilize crowds. This report explores the unique nexus between faith and populism in our era and offers an insight into how cyberspace and offline politics have become highly intertwined to create a hyper-reality in which socio-political events are taking place. The report focuses, in particular, on the role of religious populism in digital space as a catalyst for undemocratic politics in the five Asian countries we have selected as our case studies. The focus on the West Asian and South Asian cases is an opportunity to examine authoritarian religious populists in power, whereas the East Asian countries showcase powerful authoritarian religious populist forces outside parliament. This report compares internet governance in each of these countries under three categories: obstacles to access, limits on content, and violations of user rights. These are the digital toolkits that authorities use to govern digital space. Our case selection and research focus have allowed us to undertake a comparative analysis of different types of online restrictions in these countries that constrain space foropposition and democratic voices while simultaneously making room for authoritarian religious populist narratives to arise and flourish. The report finds that surveillance, censorship, disinformation campaigns, internet shutdowns, and cyber-attacks—along with targeted arrests and violence spreading from digital space—are common features of digital authoritarianism. In each case, it is also found that religious populist forces co-opt political actors in their control of cyberspace. The situational analysis from five countries indicates that religion’s role in digital authoritarianism is quite evident, adding to the layer of nationalism. Most of the leaders in power use religious justifications for curbs on the internet. Religious leaders support these laws as a means to restrict “moral ills” such as blasphemy, pornography, and the like. This evident “religious populism” seems to be a major driver of policy changes that are limiting civil liberties in the name of “the people.” In the end, the reasons for restricting digital space are not purely religious but draw on religious themes with populist language in a mixed and hybrid fashion. Some common themes found in all the case studies shed light on the role of digital space in shaping politics and society offline and vice versa. The key findings of our survey are as follows: The future of (especially) fragile democracies is highly intertwined with digital space. There is an undeniable nexus between faith and populism which offers an insight into how cyberspace and politics offline have become highly intertwined. Religion and politics have merged in these five countries to shape cyber governance. The cyber governance policies of populist rulers mirror their undemocratic, repressive, populist, and authoritarian policies offline. As a result, populist authoritarianism in the non-digital world has increasingly come to colonize cyberspace, and events online are more and more playing a role in shaping politics offline. “Morality” is a common theme used to justify the need for increasingly draconian digital laws and the active monopolization of cyberspace by government actors. Islamist and Hindutva trolls feel an unprecedented sense of cyber empowerment, hurling abuse without physically seeing the consequences or experiencing the emotional and psychological damage inflicted on their victims.

Abstract:
Studies of livelihoods and food systems since the start of the global pandemic in 2020 have shown a consistent pattern: the primary risks to food and livelihood security are at the household level. Covid-19 is having a major impact on households’ production and access to quality, nutritious food, due to losses of income, combined with increasing food prices, and restrictions to movements of people, inputs and products. The studies included in this Research for Policy and Practice Report and supported by the Covid-19 Responses for Equity (CORE) Programme span several continents and are coordinated by leading research organisations with a detailed understanding of local food system dynamics and associated equity and livelihood issues in their regions: (1) the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on livelihoods in sub-Saharan Africa; (2) supporting small and medium enterprises, food security, and evolving social protection mechanisms to deal with Covid-19 in Pakistan; and (3) impact of Covid-19 on family farming and food security in Latin America: evidence-based public policy responses.
