This book looks at the process of cultural enlightenment in the context of Pakistan. It undertakes an interesting and in-depth research focusing on how the world’s second largest Muslim state can learn from Europe’s heritage of enlightenment. It studies why Pakistan lacks a process of awakening and what the scope of cultural enlightenment in Pakistan is against the backdrop of militant Islam. The author argues that cultural enlightenment can help promote positive conflict transformation in Pakistan and discusses the ways in which challenges to establishing a culture of reasoning, tolerance, accommodation, social justice and peace can be dealt with. A unique contribution, this book will be of interest to students and researchers of philosophy, political science, history, international relations, South Asian studies and religious studies. It will also appeal to think tanks, policymakers and general readers interested in these topics.

The book aims to examine the vision for the new state of Pakistan as perceived by the founders of the country. Be it sectarian, ethnic, or resource based conflicts, the lack of a secular approach pursued by various regimes of Pakistan since 1947 until today has augmented the sense of insecurity and instability in the country, particularly among the socially and ethnically marginalized communities. A secular approach does not imply anti-religious thought or practice, but a neutral and unbiased way of understanding which can be perceived as just and fair. The book argues that the issue of religious militancy and violence can be successfully dealt with by introducing a secular order; this research aims to add to new perspective to developing an understanding of a secular approach and mindset in order to unleash the process of conflict management in Pakistan based on the lessons which can be learned from the experiences of European, Turkish, Indian, and Indonesian experiments with secularism.
