Women and Social Change in Pakistan

This book highlights the effects of education, media, legislation, executive measures, political process, and civil society on Punjabi women in the larger Pakistani socio-cultural milieu. It conducts both qualitative and quantitative analysis through a literature review, extensive interviews, surveys, and group discussions from male and female university students, legal experts, and women rights activists. As such, this study presents a serious debate on socio-cultural, legal, political, and economic aspects of women’s rights in Pakistan.
