CfP - Thaap 2015 - CFP - Thaap Conference 2015: People's History of Pakistan

PEOPLE'S HISTORY OF PAKISTAN
The somewhat insecure state of Pakistan reacts with suspicion and repression to any deviation from the official narrative, which time and again has proven to be insufficient, selective and even inaccurate. The variety of cultures and people of Pakistan just cannot be fitted into one mold. They all have their own genuine worldviews and aspirations which are as valid as any.
Understanding ourselves, our neighbors, and our neighbors’ neighbors is the only sure means of promoting harmony and tolerance. The best way to learn is to learn from each other.
