It always gears up to explore new dimensions of the universe. Revolution in Military Affairs (RMA) is the brainchild of a critical human mind that never relies on knowledge at hand and strives for more. Aerospace potential and capabilities have become crucial to modern forces in an age of global reach and South Asia is not an exception in any sense. It is argued that RMA in South Asia is likely to be employed more in aerospace to outmanoeuvre each other (India and Pakistan) in order to carry out rapid offensive operations against the enemy. This paper examines the emerging trends in aerial combat and military use of space simultaneously with a focus on on-going developments in South Asia. At first, this paper explores the emergence of aerospace potential for military means among major powers during the cold war. Following emerging global aerospace trends, it focuses how it encourag...

The research looks at how Pakistan is stuck in a "tunnel vision trap" where it is unable to prioritise non-traditional security problems above conventional national security difficulties due to a constant emphasis on traditional security issues. The research finds that despite the fact that it addresses strategic red lines responsibly and cautiously both inside and outside of its area, its high priority for conventional threat perceptions weighs down on its internal nontraditional security concern. The study comes to the conclusion that Pakistan's historic emphasis on security in making decisions does not change even while shifting from the pursuit of geoeconomic goals to the geostrategic prioritising of nationa...

This complexity characterizes the nature of international relations at the start of the twenty-first century. One significant feature of Modern international relations is global collaboration and incorporation of regions in proximity. From the mid-twentieth century to present decade, political and economic regional organizations are rapidly emerging in different regions. In the Eurasia, the cycle of regional cooperation and incorporation evolved slowly. The Central Asian Republics (CARs) attempted to create new bilateral and multilateral ties after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1990s. The nations of the world have entered into new era of multilateral cooperation which evolved principal international organizations. CARs made efforts and joined other regional actors to co-found different regional organizations like the Eurasian Economic Community (EEC), the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), and the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO). Although these organizations face a variety of obstacles in their growth but their success is distinct. The SCO had been Eurasia's largest effective political organization.

According to Power Transition Theory (PTT), power is central in understanding the international system as a relative power to demonstrate the prerequisite for peace and war in the international system. So, power is basically an ability to impose on or convince a revolutionary act to comply with demands. The study is a qualitative analysis of the grounded facts and previously produced documents and researches. With the document analysis it is evident that both the countries work on the mutual interests, there is a low possibility of actual war like situation on any of the political or economic grounds between China and the US. China can be considered as an economic superpower if it peruse all its economic expansion plans, on the other hand US will remain on top on the political or military fronts.

Its conceptualization in developed countries and developing countries is different in the essence of perception and operationalization. This study attempts to explore the genesis of terrorism generally in Pakistan and Swat valley in particular. It explores the causes and major driving forces of terrorism and the factors which contributed to its spread because of social fault lines. The menace of terrorism had been globalized in the wake of 9/11, which led the US to initiate global war on terror, but its implications on Pakistan were triggered by the US invasion of Afghanistan and the contributions of Pakistan in this regard. The global geographic attraction of Pakistan makes it vulnerable to any critical development in the world by default. To analyze the causes and impacts of the study, this study relies on a descriptive method of analysis backed by primary and secondary data ...

Since its inception in China, it has claimed thousands of human lives while living millions in quarantine because of viral infections. Where it brings major human suffering, it also creates global economic disruptions worldwide. It impedes growth and smooth operation of supply chains, production facilities, travel, commodity market, and consumers worldwide driven by the threats of COVID-19.

It not only stops revenue generation but also incurs a great cost to states while dealing with global pandemic amid public health. Therefore, its economic impacts on small and developing economies are more disturbing and destabilizing. The economies like Pakistan are indebted along with negative growth are facing a shortage of resources to fight with it let alone bearing reven...

It is also an area with vast untapped valuable resources and intersection of the highest trade and commerce routes of the globe. The U.S has established a strong position in Southeast Asia since the end of World War II, that has given much peace. The substantial investment and infrastructure advancement culminated in an accelerated post-war recuperation of the ravaged area that also aided China (now the Financial Gigantic of the Globe) towards rapid economic growth. During most of the Cold War and in the Vietnam War Southeast Asia resounded. United States changed its emphasis from defense to economic matters in Southeast Asia after the end of the Cold War.

This qualitative study is an effort to examine the role of systemic and cultural aspects that caused disruption to the FATA region and the consequences of fusion in solving these problems. Research findings indicate that not only do a large number of FATA citizens support the move, but also look forward to providing the area with great outcomes. This proposed merger would not only bring about governmental and infrastructural growth in FATA, but the province will also be involved in new enterprises, better connectivity, greater innovation and positive social improvements. In addition , it is important that govt include local citizens in this program, because it would be very challenging for the state to gain the desired outcomes without understanding the local conditions. _____________________________________________________________________________________________
