Abstract
Discontentment over current political, economic and security situation looms large at a time when a great many Pakistanis face the hardships of poverty, unemployment and unprecedented inflation. Those who want to bring about a change in the situation find hope in the Arab Spring phenomenon in which millions of people stood up against oppressive dictatorships and seemed to have taken power in their own hands. This paper looks at the similarities and dissimilarities between the Arab countries where uprisings have succeeded in toppling the regimes and Pakistan. It also analyses the prospects if any of an uprising in Pakistan.
