Nestled among E. M. Forster's careful studies of Edwardian social mores is a short story called “The Machine Stops.” Set many years in the future, it is a work of science fiction that imagines all humanity housed in giant high-density cities buried deep below a lifeless surface. With each citizen cocooned in an identical private chamber, all interaction is mediated through the workings of “the Machine,” a totalizing social system that controls every aspect of human life. Cultural variety has ceded to rigorous organization: everywhere is the same, everyone lives the same life. So hopelessly reliant is humanity upon the efficient operation of the Machine, that when the system begins to fail there is little the people can do, and so tightly ordered is the system that the failure spreads. At the story's conclusion, the collapse is total, and Forster's closing image offers a condemnation of the world they had built, and a hopeful glimpse of the world that might, in their absence, return: “The whole city was broken like a honeycomb. […] For a moment they saw the nations of the dead, and, before they joined them, scraps of the untainted sky” (2001: 123). In physically breaking apart the city, there is an extent to which Forster is literalizing the device of the broken society, but it is also the case that the infrastructure of the Machine is so inseparable from its social structure that the failure of one causes the failure of the other. The city has—in the vocabulary of present-day engineers—“failed badly.”

The Human Development Index (HDI) is one of the parameters of success in the development of the quality of human life, besides that at the regional level, the HDI is an indicator of the primary performance measurement and allocation of Regional Incentive Funds in promoting the welfare of the people in the area. In 2020 the Banten Province Human Development Index 72.45 only rose 0.01% compared to 2019, lower than the growth in 2019, which reached 0.68% and is still stuck in the high category (70≤HDI≤80), this indicates the progress of human development in Banten experienced a slowdown, In addition, when compared to the growth of the HDI-forming indicators in 2019, all components that make up the HDI experienced a slowdown in growth except for RLS which experienced growth acceleration of 0.33% from 1.39% in 2019 to 1.72% in 2020. So it is necessary to do a deeper analysis to determine the characteristics of the indicators that make up the HDI in the City as a contributor to the HDI value of the Banten Province so that efforts can be made to increase human development as evidence of improving the welfare of the people in the Banten Province. The K-Means Cluster method is used to group cities in Banten Province based on similar characteristics in terms of the HDI compiler indicators, including Life Expectancy at Birth, Expected Years of Schooling, and Average Length of School in, and Expenditure per Capita. Based on the results of the analysis obtained three clusters consisting of cities with similar characteristics in each cluster. Cluster 1 is a City with a low HDI indicator consisting of Pandeglang, Lebak, Serang. Cluster 2 is a City with a medium HDI indicator consisting of Tangerang, Cilegon, Serang City. Cluster 3 has a high HDI indicator consisting of Tangerang City and South Tangerang City. After obtaining City information based on the characteristics of each cluster, then the Banten Provincial government can provide direction and policies to each City in Clusters 1 and 2 to be able to develop activity programs with more attention to the HDI compiler indicators so that the Human Development Index in the City can increase

مسلم تہذیب و تمدن پر ہندؤ تہذیب کے اثرات: پاکستانی تناظر میں جائزہ Islam provides a complete and comprehensive concept of civilization that includes all aspects of human life and provides a complete philosophy of life. Generally speaking a civilization is the expression of any philosophy or belief that develops into the political, social, economical and cultural norms. Main focus of the present research is the impact of Hindu civilization on our society, we see that by living with the Hindu society, their beliefs, casteism, rituals, have influenced the people around them. Pakistan is and always has been an amalgam of a diverse culture. Pakistan has a rich culture without a doubt, but this culture is in the line of fire in association to powerful Indian culture. From birth to death, there are small rituals that were normally associated with Hindus, have also slowly mixed with Islamic culture and have become inseparable. Change in the social life of Muslims of subcontinent is due to conversion of a large number of Hindus to Islam. They accepted the preaching of Islam but did not give up their practices and rituals. Consequently, their rituals and practices were incorporated into the Muslim society. Some social ceremonies associated with births, deaths, and marriages were influenced by Hindu culture. It is a fact that media played a great role in propagating Hindu culture. Therefore, in this article, efforts are made to analyze all the factors due to which we are facing challenges of Hindu civilization and how we can get rid of its impacts on Muslims thoughts, culture and society. Allah Almighty says: O people, who believe in Allah, enter the whole circle of Islam. So, to address all above-mentioned challenges, a comparative and analytical research methodology with qualitative paradigm has been conducted in this research paper. At the end, solutions have been provided.

Based on the concept of a livable and global age-friendly city, pavements are a public facility that the city should provide to the people. Appropriate pavements will be beneficial for the people, particularly for good quality of life for the elderly to move around in the city. This study explored the behaviour of the elderly in the use of pavements and the problems confronted. The study also evaluated the value of the pavement walking area as it reflected the benefits of pavements to the elderly by applying the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM). During March-May 2017, data were collected using interviews with 601 elderly living in Bangkok. The study indicated that the main problem for senior citizens regarding their use of pavements was from being disturbed by motorbikes riding on the pavements. The average value of pavement for the elderly was about THB 160 (USD 5.30) per person per year. Thus, the benefits of pavements to the elderly in Bangkok was approximately THB 158 million (USD 5.2 million) per year. Thus, policy makers should make proper budget allocations for elderly-friendly pavement management and seriously address the problems confronting the elderly in using pavements, to maximize the usefulness of pavements not only for the elderly but also for the public and to support a sustainable urban development.
