Reviews

The authors examine the evolving national narratives and discourses within the framework of 'security state', focusing on the youth, education, media and the larger questions of freedom and human rights. Embedded in critical ideas of citizenship, political engagement and state society relations, the book explores the views of Pakistani youth on issues that are likely to define the future path of progress, stability or social disorder. A special strength of the book lies in its empirical approach in understanding the perspectives of the younger generation of Pakistan. It is a must read for students, scholars and policy makers engaged in understanding radicalism, Islam and politics in South Asia. * Rasul Bakhsh Rais, Professor of Political Science, Lahore University of Management Sciences (LUMS), Pakistan *
