Abstract

Pakistan's madaaris sustain attention for their suspected contribution to militancy. Some scholars reject this securitized discourse, arguing that it mobilizes/sustains various fictions that madaaris: are schools last resort for the poor; provide little value; expanding in their usage; and spawning international terrorists. I employ four new data-sources to inform debates between those who understand seminaries from the optic of security and those who do not. I find: madrasah use is neither expanding nor due to poverty; parents use them to complement other forms of education, reflecting parental preferences for religious and secular educations; madaaris provide educational benefit beyond public schools.
巴基斯坦有伊斯兰学校问题吗?来自新数据的见解
巴基斯坦的伊斯兰教徒因涉嫌参与武装活动而备受关注。一些学者反对这种证券化的话语,认为它动员/维持了各种各样的虚构:伊斯兰学校是穷人的最后手段;提供的价值很少;扩展用法的;并滋生国际恐怖分子。我采用了四种新的数据来源,为从安全的角度理解神学院和不理解神学院的人之间的辩论提供信息。我发现:伊斯兰学校的使用既没有扩大,也不是因为贫穷;父母用它们来补充其他形式的教育,反映出父母对宗教和世俗教育的偏好;Madaaris提供公立学校以外的教育福利。
