Abstract
This paper elucidates the theoretical relationship between the
Frustration-Aggression as hypothesized by Dollard et al and
the health crises in Pakistan. This research explains the theory
of social movements, and posits that manifestation of
aggression in Pakistan has been a result of conscious decisions
by young doctors to participate in protests, strikes and
absenteeism, organized YDM. A closed ended questionnaire
survey containing 21 items was conducted across Pakistan
during May 2018 to March 2019. It was observed that the young
doctors participating in protests made conscious decision to
show aggression through these protests. A realization was also
observed, among the participating subjects that these protests
will have a direct impact on the health system of Pakistan,
which is already under crises. To bring the national health
system out of crises, it is important for YDM and policy circles
to negotiate and find the mutually agreeable premise
