A PROPOSED MODEL OF SOCIAL-POLYPHONY
FOR CPEC
Dr. Rubina Masum, Noor Mohammad, and Dr. Kausar Perveen
ABSTRACT
The review paper assesses the enormous promises and
challenges faced by China-Pakistan Economic Corridor
[CPEC] since its inception. CPEC not only serves as an
economic game-changer but also questions the current
social dynamics; hence the paper critically assesses
the implications of the mega project from a cultural
standpoint. Firstly, the study highlights the diverse
nature of the economic ideologies practiced in China and
Pakistan and their infiltration in the social fabric thereby
creating a distinct mind-set. Secondly, the study examines
the perceived challenges between the two countries that
encompass cultural differences, language barriers and
gaps in technological advancement. Thirdly, a multipronged
approach is adopted to hoist a model of cultural
framework to revisit the current issues and envisage a
positive outcome of the economic venture. Lastly, the
intervention of the think tanks for mitigating is discussed
to address the potential conflict among people of the two
countries arising due to closer contact on daily basis than
previously envisioned.
