The Individual

This is a review type research focusing on educational problems in Pakistan. Fifteen related researches were sampled. Education lays the basis for every country's political, social, and economic growth. A sustainable school framework allows the country to accomplish national targets. As a developing world, Pakistan has faced crucial educational problems since its birth, so the education system has struggled to perform on the nation's expectations. Until now, schooling at any stage trains the individual for the next level until he brings the person to tertiary industry; therefore, there is a strong link with Pakistan's education and growth; obviously, the indicator doesn't reflect positive outcomes. There is an untrained teaching workforce with fluctuating enrollments and limited-resource facilitation, a dual educational medium, inadequate assessment mechanism, and government allocating low budgets to the education system. It was conluded that Pakistan has serious educational problems. Suggestions were made based on the findings. Moreover, there is a shortage of study that encourages innovative methods of handling decision-making, and gender inequality is often seen as an issue that cannot be ignored, so this subject is chosen as a domain to focus on and advice to address.

The paper presents an overview of studies of the effects of inflation targeting on long-term economic growth. We analyze the potential channels of influence, as well as modern empirical studies that test performance of these channels. We compare the effects of different variants of inflation targeting (strict and mixed). Based on the analysis recommendations on the choice of optimal (in terms of stimulating long-term growth) regime of monetary policy in developed and developing economies are formulated.

Crisis Of Modernity

This article examines Lorraine Hansberry’s play A Raisin in the Sun by exploring the conflict between a traditionally Southern, Afro-Christian, communitarian worldview and certain more destabilizing elements of the worldview of modernity. In addition to examining the socio-economic problems confronted by some African Americans in the play, this article investigates the worldviews by which these Black people frame their problems as well as the dynamics within the relationships of a Black family that lives at the intersection of racial, class, and gender inequality in Chicago during the latter 1950s.

Frequency Intensity

Some explanations for the paucity of empirical studies of death fears in healthy, nonbereaved children are offered, and issues in studying this topic are discussed. Three major findings from the existing literature — occurrence, age/developmental differences, and gender differences in frequency, intensity, and quality — are presented, followed by a discussion of questions that remain largely unanswered and explanations that may need revision.
