Abstract

Federalism is a setup most suited to countries with diversity. A bicameral legislature has become the necessity of multicultural federations since it best satisfies the federating units’ needs by giving them equal representation to participate in the legislation and accountability processes. It also guarantees impartiality through providing a second deliberation on matters considered at the lower house overshadowed by the federating units with the majority population. In Pakistan, all constitutions had unicameral legislatures until the debacle of East Pakistan in 1971. After the unfortunate incident, it was felt that an upper house should check out the domination of the largest province in the central legislature with equal representation. So, the 1973 Constitution of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan came out with an upper house named Senate. Provincial autonomy was the long demanded right of provinces brought about by the 18th Amendment to the Constitution. The Amendment gave a new and dynamic role to the Senate. The present study intends to analyze the Senate’s role in the federation of Pakistan in the backdrop of the 18th Amendment. By utilizing primary and secondary data sources, this study takes an analytical approach to address the research question. For this purpose, the authors have conducted semi-structured interviews with the Senators (n=6) belonging to all four provinces of Pakistan to bring empirical evidence concerning the role of the Senate as the House of the Federation. The study underscores that the indirect election of the senators, insignificant legislative powers of the Senate, parliamentary nature of the political system, and the resultant bulldozing of legislative proposals by the presidential ordinances and joint sessions of the parliament severely curtail the powers of the Senate. The study concludes that the members of the Senate should be directly elected so that their dependency on the respective provincial assemblies is minimized. The legislative powers of the Senate should be enhanced along with veto power. In case of a joint session of the parliament, one vote of the Senate should be counted as equal to three votes of the NA. With a humble contribution to theoretical and practical fields, the study describes its limitations and presents directions for future research.

Abstract

This study examines the frequency of slips of the tongue and typing in Pakistani politicians’ speeches and guidebooks. Slips of the tongue occur in formal and informal situations. In formal situations, slips of the tongue can cause serious problems such as dismissal from office or job, losing voters’ favors and even plane crashes at airports. In informal situations, slips of the tongue can cause relationship problems. Therefore, slips of the tongue have been engaging the attention of psychologists and linguists. The recorded literature, according to western scholars, shows that the earliest systematic studies were undertaken on the slips of the tongue in the 19th century. Corpora, experimental and exploratory studies have been done on slips of the tongue. In the current study, with an exploratory approach, seven Pakistani politicians’ speeches were downloaded from the social media website and analyzed for slips of the tongue. Besides, two ‘key books’ (notes books for MCQs) were analyzed for slips of typing. The data was analyzed by using insights from theoretical work of Fromkin (1973) and Mackay (1993). The findings show that “substitution” occurred more frequently than other types of slip of the tongue. Furthermore, the results also reveal that “transposition” as type of slip of typing occurred more frequently than other types. The author suggest that the next scholar perform investigation on slip tongue, which can be discovered in a variety of situations and situations, such as in a video or in everyday speech. It also advises that this issue be developed and explored further in terms of changing objects or theories.

Abstract

The main aim of the following quantitative study is to analyze the theoretical framework based on explanatory style by analyzing the association between women's beliefs related to the glass ceiling and turnover intentions and to determine whether occupational self-efficacy (OSE) moderated the connection of women beliefs regarding glass ceiling and their turnover intentions. Self-administered questionnaires were distributed, and online surveys were conducted from females that work in the private and public service sectors. The sampling technique that is used to conduct a survey from a female population is the purposive sampling technique. Women's beliefs related to the glass ceiling were analyzed using the career pathways survey (CPS), and turnover intentions were measured through the turnover intention scale. Analysis has been conducted by establishing the reliability and validity of the questionnaire scale and descriptive statistics, correlation technique, and multiple regression analysis to test the hypothesis. The findings and results indicated that there is a significant relationship among the main constructs. The findings also proved that occupational self-efficacy had a significant moderating effect on the optimistic and pessimistic (acceptance, resignation) beliefs and turnover intentions. These findings will be helpful for women to comprehend how their beliefs related to the glass ceiling works and how their beliefs influence the level of self-efficacy and intention to quit. The organization may further incorporate this study in order to devise prevention strategies to retain female employees in the workplace. It is one of the first studies to be conducted related to the glass ceiling beliefs in the Pakistani context.
