Episode 5: Why do we, in academia, have to take imagination seriously?

<p>Given the prevalence of positivism in scientific study, subjective mediums, like creative expression and imagination are often not taken seriously in academia. We already do apply imagination, as we cannot exist without it, but realising its essentiality and potential, can help us devise fresh ways of thinking and discovering. Dr. Moeini discusses the need for applying imagination in academic study and shares some examples from his own pedagogical experience.</p> <p>Reach out to us at tezhib.idrac@habib.edu.pk or https://habib.edu.pk/tezhib/</p>

Episode 4: The Myanmar Coup: Can the Popular Resistance Defeat the Military?

<p>On February 1st, 2021, Myanmar's quasi-democratic government came to an end when the military surrounded the parliament houses and detained the President, State Chancellor, cabinet ministers, and other civilian officials. The reason behind the coup is what the military leadership alleges as fraudulent elections, an allegation that has been termed null and void by the Election Commission. The general public has strongly resisted this sudden shift. From banging pots and pans to openly coming out on streets and calling for freedom, the Burmese have indicated their support for the detained civilian leadership. Despite the violent crackdowns against the protestors, the popular resistance against the new rule has only grown. But why is Myanmar's military so powerful? What has the systemic exclusion of women from the country’s political representation to do with it? And how will the future of the Rohingya community unfold?</p> <p>To find this and more, we sat down with Dr. Elisabeth Olivius to understand the many facets of the present political turmoil in Myanmar.</p> <p>Reach out to us at tezhib.idrac@habib.edu.pk or https://habib.edu.pk/tezhib/</p>
