| Summary, etc. | Fear is an emotional reaction stimulated by an apparent risk that causes a modification in the mind and further body functions. It also effects the way in which different people behave and it typically causes an individual to buckskin or escape. It is a phenomenon which is experienced by every individual and it is an inevitable sentiment. ‘Culture of Fear’, is a term that designates an ostensible pervasiveness of fear and anxiety in individual’s which effects their public meetings and relationships. It also effects on how this may influence the way individuals associate with each other as professional specialists. The phenomenon of threat perception is very conjoint in all cultures and societies. The intensity in global fear rose as the aftermath of the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Centre. In the 21stcentury, people of Pakistan experienced fear differently. Since the 1980s, the society has experienced one panic to the next. The chief objective of this study to provide an inclusive overview on the culture of fear and its ostensible link to criminal activities as a variable in the fallout of the War on Terror. While a plethora of literature exists on understanding the various socio-political impacts of the War on Terror on the Pakistani society and its body politic (Michael, 2007), there is a substantial dearth of material on the causal linkages between the war on terror and the prevalence of a culture of fear. In this regard, this exploratory effort to understand how the War on Terror in Pakistan has led to a culture of fear, through an increase of criminal activities, is significant. This study is a significant effort to contribute towards policy prescriptions by suggesting recommendations on how to empower and radicalize the society in order to avoid conflict in future, and also to inform such policy prescriptions in the future which can reduce criminal activity and resultantly, diluting the prevalent culture of fear. |
