The paper provides an overview of the evolution of Social Sciences with a focus on
the Post-1945 period, known for major strides towards scientific, analytical,
nonpartisan, multi-disciplinary and comprehensive study and research in different
fields of Social Sciences. The paper discusses the gradual growth of Social Sciences
in Pakistan in terms of increase in number of persons engaged in teaching, research
and practice in various domains of Social Sciences, institutional facilities and
availability of funds. There is a discussion of the major features of the research
work done in Social Sciences in Pakistan and its weaknesses and deficiencies. The
paper argues that Social Sciences have become important for societies like Pakistan
that face different types of social and political conflicts. The rise of religious
extremism, violence and terrorism also requires that we benefit from the work done
in different fields of Social Sciences for understanding the dynamics of societal
trends, issues and conflict and how to address them. The paper also reviews
teaching and research being done in Pakistani universities, especially since 2005,
when more funds became available for study and research in Social Sciences. The
universities have vastly expanded their Doctoral and M.Phil. porgrammes but the
imperative of quality is often neglected.
