The consumption of dietary sugar products has become a topic of increasing concern worldwide, given its potential impact on the ecology of the human body. This research is also based on positive discourse construction around dietary sugar consumption by using a semio-linguistic analysis of eco-advertisements in Pakistan. The aims of this research are: firstly, to highlight the marked semiotic instances in relation to eco-advertisements. Secondly, to identify lexical items that have positive connotations in context with dietary sugars products, and lastly, to interpret the semiotic and lexical evidence as a tool for constructing positive discourse. The data has been collected through simple random sampling and the basic framework of Arran Stibbe has been used for data analysis. The findings of this research indicate that eco-advertisements in Pakistan tend to employ persuasive techniques such as positive framing, emotional appeals, and visual symbolism to present dietary sugar consumption in a favorable light and these advertisements emphasize the natural origins of sugars and promote their nutritional benefits.","PeriodicalId":225275,"journal":{"name":"Khaldunia - Journal of Social Sciences","volume":"228 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140489892","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The postmodern concept of hyperreality is concerned with concealing the truth behind reproductions that is twice removed from reality. The thorough study of the text shows how simulacra and simulation can produce highly real environments that seem to exist entirely outside of human reality. This writing is dystopian in nature because the hyperbolic representation of consumer society leads towards magic world which seems real due to its continuous practice. The protagonist of the story is a little boy named Ezra who uses a robot named Pounce to help him to navigate the post-apocalyptic world. Pounce, a fictitious nannybot, is the representation of consumer society due to its robotic implications. Pounce wonders over the elements of robot revolution that will exterminate humanity. This paper has analyzed the rebellious attitude of machinery such as by robots and other artificially intelligent computers against humans. Therefore, the ordinary and uninteresting state of the modern world eventually gives rise to the world of hyperreality, where everything appears to be more fascinating and less dry than the alleged desert of the real outside. In the context of this study, it is asserted that the postmodern person gets tired of the apparent artificiality of hyperreality and either strives to re-discover the real or confronts the meaningless wasteland left in the wake of the real’s absence. Through this analysis, the researcher has drawn the conclusion that reality has completely changed and that hyperreality is now the predominate reality. Therefore, the application of this study is valuable in demonstrating an understanding of the scope and impact of hyperreality, simulation, and simulacra on the postmodern individuals.","PeriodicalId":225275,"journal":{"name":"Khaldunia - Journal of Social Sciences","volume":"34 4","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139598200","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This perception is determined by numerous factors i.e., awareness about crimes and punishment. Capital punishment is very dangerous form of punishment which is used to control the serious crimes and consider as deterrence for the potential criminals. The risk of innocent execution and flaws in the police investigation system were also reason to oppose the capital punishment. It is quantitative cross-sectional study. According to Pakistan Crimes Statistics, crime rate is increasing day by day. Existing Literature on crime occurrence in Pakistan shows that crime rate is increasing rapidly due to poverty, urbanization, inflation and economic inequality among every field of life. The present research is quantitative in its nature. It is conducted in five district bar associations of Punjab Province. A sample of six hundred lawyers is randomly selected data is collected through self-administered questioner and statistically analyzed. The results of descriptive and inferential analysis shows that majority of the respondents supported capital punishment on account of many reasons while many other respondents opposed it on some other grounds. Multivariate analysis results pointed out a strong relationship between severity punishments and less cases of homicide. However, there was no relationship between the awareness of capital punishment and perceived effectiveness of capital punishment. There was an inverse relationship between reasons to oppose capital punishment and perceived effectiveness of capital punishment. The multi regression analysis revealed a strong association of awareness about punishment, crimes against person, crime against state and reasons to support capital punishment with effectiveness of capital punishment.","PeriodicalId":225275,"journal":{"name":"Khaldunia - Journal of Social Sciences","volume":"23 10","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139610044","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While using metres (Bahur)he followed Hindi and Punjabi patterns. His poetic temperament is similar to Behr-e-Mutaqarib. He used Maqtu syllables of Mutadarik along with Mutaqarib in an innovative style. He used the metres with a special technique. His all poems are in these metres and their dissection is possible along with different and diverse Zahafaat( A term of Ilm-e-Uruz). He combined the Behr-e-Mutaqarib Aslum, Ashram, and Maqbooz Aslum. At times, he used the Syllable of Behr-e-Mutadarik i.e. Fa-e-lun. Because of these techniques, all of his controversial poems can be factorized. His innovative sense of taste liked the experiments. As he was, actually in search of a new poetic rhythm that is why he broke down the Prosodic restrictions. Meera Jee tried to slow down the pace of this metre. He courageously tried to join the Zahafaat of the closest meters in order to create a new meter. These two meters are closest to each other because Abul Hasan Akhfush created Behr-e-Mutaqarib out of Behr-e-Mutadarik. Because of the usage of Zahafaati faces of the meter, he seems to breathe freely in the poems and seems to be experiencing towards more freedom by creating long lines of poems. The existence of musicality in his inner being and his understanding of the syllables of meters made him use the syllable of Fa-e-lun along with Fe-lun. In his poems, Meera Jee using freely the Zahafaat of two meters i.e. Behr-e-Mutaqarib created out of Behr-e-Mutadarik, and by remaining close to the prevailing structure of Prosody tried to experiment with new system of Prosody by using Zahafaat under his self-created rules, thus paving the way for a new meter for his poems.","PeriodicalId":225275,"journal":{"name":"Khaldunia - Journal of Social Sciences","volume":"6 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139524236","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Certain approaches performed previously have validated stress over the concept of undertakings and associations for children and their parents, which is recognized by the reasonable authorities which are in administrative conditions, in typical early form of childhood training (Jorde-Bloom, 1992; Clyde and Rodd, 1995; Rodd, 1994).A few elements have added to the emphasis on authority. These incorporate weight for expanding professionalization and responsibility from inside and outside the calling and the need to construct, set up and keep up validity with the individuals who utilize early childhood services. The monetary limitations which will work in the present atmosphere imply that leaders need to assume expanded liability for enabling all the individuals who are worried about early childhood; that is children, staff and guardians. Rather than great youth leaders, everything has gotten easier, especially helping adults who are stressed over thoughts of children developing expertise by gaining knowledge. This will also help in making sense of filling in as a person and replying to the consistent demands for changes.The subjective research wrote about in this report looks at the administration understandings and impression of qualified youth leaders.

After one month Xi Jinping purposed the Maritime Silk route project which would connect China with South Asia, Africa, the Middle East, and Europe via sea route. Initially, this project was proposed as the ‘New Silk Road’ but was changed with ‘One Belt One Road’ (OBOR) and after 2017, it was named as “Belt and Road Initiative” (BRI) (Chan, 2019).

Results showed that cable television is highly influenced on the socialization of the children as violent behavior is caused due to greater exposure to violent programs. It is also found that it becomes the reason of reducing parent-children interaction pattern due to greater interest in spending time while watching television programs. It is also found that it is a cause of learning uncultured language/words from that programs and children could not pay proper attention on their educational performance as well.","PeriodicalId":225275,"journal":{"name":"Khaldunia - Journal of Social Sciences","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124044223","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
