The present research was carried out to investigate the knowledge and awareness regarding Nikah Nama reforms and its clauses among the unmarried males and females of Lahore. The objectives of this study were to explore knowledge and level of awareness about Nikah Nama reforms and to explore the reasons for not reading the Nikah Nama before marriage. A total of 400 adults were sampled, including 200 males and 200 females. A self-developed questionnaire was used; which included both closed and open ended questions. The results of this study revealed that most of the people were not aware about Nikah Nama reforms and women supportive clauses. It was also revealed that three broad factors contributed to not reading the Nikah Nama before marriage: (i) patriarchal culture, (ii) Lack of awareness; and (iii) Insecurity and fear. It is recommended that awareness about marriage rights should be part of the formal and informal education system and there must be some accountability against people who break laws and strike out the Nikkah Nama clauses or prevent the reading of the contract. Key Words: Nikkah Nama, Reforms, Women Supportive Clauses, Patriarchy, Ignorance

Terbukti dengan berkembangnya pendidikan tradisional yang menggunakan aksara lokal di seluruh negeri, di antaranya adalah Minangkabau. Aksara lokal Minangkabau adalah adaptasi dari aksara Arab bersama dengan budaya orang-orang di sana yang dibawa oleh para pedagang Arabia, dan terkenal dengan aksara Arab-Melayu atau Arab gundul. Aksara Arab-Melayu masuk dalam sistem pendidikan tradisional Minangkabau melalui masjid. Selain itu, aksara Arab-Melayu merupakan latar belakang adanya beberapa teks yang berisi nilai kehidupan orang-orang Minangkabau saat itu. Namun, keberadaan aksara Arab-Melayu mencoba terdesak, terutama saat penjajah Belanda mengenalkan aksara latin kepada masyarakat Minangkabau. Hegemoni aksara latin menyebabkan degradasi aksara Arab-Melayu, yang berimplikasi pada menghilangnya beberapa teks seperti beberapa skrip atau memori yang tersimpan dalam pikiran orang Minangkabau tua. Selain itu, hegemoni politik yang ditawarkan oleh pemerintah Belanda menyebabkan banyak naskah Minangkabau tidak sesuai untuk diterbitkan dan juga sebagian besar skripnya secara sukarela diberikan kepada pemerintah Belanda atau sebagai hadiah.Kata kunci: Skrip Minangkabau, hegemoni kolonial Belanda, aksara lokal

SUMMARY The incorporation of socio-economic rights in the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights should be considered a vital move towards the transformation of socio-economic conditions of the people on the continent. However, the envisaged socio-economic transformation depends largely on how these rights are interpreted. It is the task of the supervisory organs of the African Charter to develop the scope and content of these rights and their related obligations through interpretation. To achieve this interpretative objective, interpretive process of the supervisory organs should be guided by an appropriate approach to interpretation that is applied coherently. This article argues that the teleological approach to treaty interpretation is an appropriate approach to interpreting socio-economic rights in the African Charter. The article develops a methodology for application of the teleological approach through which socio-economic rights in the African Charter may be effectively interpreted. Key words: socio-economic rights; African Charter; effective interpretation; teleological approach to interpretation

It was clear to Schleiermacher that, long before each modern democratic state, whose self-understanding is based on their citizens being able to participate in them politically, is able to develop, the provision of democratic institutions alone is not enough. Historically, the development of inner stability in modern democratic states can only occur if a public education system, which caters equally to the needs of all the people living in them, is established nationwide. As a new addition to the system of education, which was originally conceived as a purely private concept, the particular contribution of public education has been to initiate a process of political education stemming from schools.

CONONGENITAL ADRENAL hyperplasia (CAH) is an inborn error of metabolism that can produce life-threatening disease in the first one to three weeks of life, unless properly diagnosed and managed. This autosomal recessive disease results in insufficient biosynthesis of cortisol due to an enzyme defect in the adrenal gland. CAH due to 21-hydroxylase (21-OH) deficiency is found in 1/11,000–1/15,000 people in the general population, with a prevalence as high as 1/750 people in some populations such as the Yupik Eskimos in Alaska and the people of La Réunion in France.1 Males and females are equally affected by this disease due to the autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance.
