انسان کو شروع سے ہی کہانی سے دلچسپی رہی ہے کہانی کی تاریخ بھی اتنی ہی قدیم ہوگی جتنی انسان کی ہے کہانی کی تاریخ انسانی زندگی اور اس کی بڑھتی ہوئی پیچیدگیوں کی تاریخ ہوتی ہے جس میں انسان کے کارناموں کی روداد ہوتی ہے جس میں اس نے اپنے ماحول معاشرے کی کسی قوت سے مقابل اگر کامیابی حاصل کی ہو ۔یہی کہانی انسان کے احساس برتری کی تسکین کا ذریعہ بنتی ہے اور اس طرح کہانی کا تعلق ہماری فطرت سے بھی ہے۔
کہانی دنیا کا قدیم ترین فن ہے انسانی قوت تخلیق نے سب سے پہلے قصہ کی تخلیق کی اور داستان قصہ گوئی کی شکل میں موجود تھی پھر قصے کہانیوں نے جدید عہد کے علائق تک انسان کے ساتھ ہی کہانی نے بھی بہت سے مراحل طے کیے داستان گوئی سے ناول ،ناولٹ اور افسانے سے مختصر کہانیوں (مائیکرو فکشن ،افسانحہ ،فلیش فکشن) کی طرف اردو فکشن کا یہ ارتقائی سفر جارہی ہے کیونکہ فکشن میں یہ تغیر تبدل ادب کے ارتقاء کیلئے ناگزیر ہے ارتقاء کا یہی سفر سماج میں بھی جاری رہتا ہےپہلے کی نسبت لوگوں کے پاس فرصت کے لمحات کم ہیں مشینی، صنعتی اور ٹیکنالوجی کی ترقی نے لوگوں کو مصروف کردیا ہےاسی مصروفیت کی حالت میں لوگ ادب سے بھی لطف اندوز ہونا چاہتے ہیں اسی لیے عام قارئین داستان ناول وغیرہ کی ضخیم کتب کی بجائے کم وقت میں کہانیوں سے وہی لذت کشید کرنے کیلئے مختصر کہانیوں( مائیکرو فکشن ،ا فسانحہ ،فلیش فکشن وغیرہ) کی طرف راغب ہو رہے ہیں آج کے ٹیکنالوجی ،مشینی اور گلوبلا ئزیشن کے دور میں معمولیات زندگی میں...
It is generally agreed that every legal system claims authority, however, the notion of authority is one of the most controversial concepts found in western legal philosophy. There are various distinct problems involved in the notion of authority and the problem of its paradoxes. The first section of the present paper introduces the viewpoints of various western schools of thought and the philosophical analysis of the concept of legitimate authority. The conflict about the concept of legitimate authority reflects their code of life and concept of religions. The second section of the paper presents a study of the origins of the Islamic law as well as the contemporary western legal thoughts in connection with authority. In Islamic law authority-which is at once religious and moral is the will of the Creator which is basic source of Islamic law, however, jurists differentiate between legal and moral values. It concludes with the comparison between Islamic and western notion of authority.
This research is focused on the analysis of discretionary approaches of high school heads. Discretion is the exercise of judgment, power to do things or to decide when and how to implement for the improvement of individual performance as well as educational institutions efficiency and effectiveness. The study investigated the discretionary: managerial, instructional leadership, disciplinary, conflict mediating, and public dealing approaches of high school heads. The tools of the study were questionnaires, interviews, and observations. Sampling was made by using „Census sampling‟ and „Simple random sampling‟. The pilot study of the research instruments were carried out on content and construct validity. The reliability of the research tools was tested on „Factor analyses‟ and „Cronbach‟s alpha‟. In this study, the data were triangulated by explanatory sequential design of a „Mixed method approach‟ including quantitative and qualitative data. The quantitative data were collected from 192 heads and 265 working teachers and similarly the qualitative data were collected from 12 District Education Management Personnel and 29 heads of institutions. The quantitative data were analysed on frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation, and one sample t-test. The qualitative data were analyzed on the suggested method of Mile and Huberman. The key findings of the study indicate that heads make decisions on the basis of observations, plan syllabus for the whole academic year, struggle to achieve long term and short term targets, inform staff about their responsibilities, provide feedback to the staff on the spot, take initiative for controlling the weak areas of discipline, provide guidance to the learners on self-discipline, resolve conflicts through mutual dealing and discussion but there are heads who are inefficient in supervising effective school management, improving instructional strategies, managing school control, carrying out interpersonal relationship with the parents and the community, working for the improvement of the staff and the learners‟ performance, caring for equality and justice with the staff, appreciating the staff efforts and their hard work, utilizing staff potential according to their talent, cooperating with the parents and the community and sharing with them in decision making. The study concludes that heads are efficient in making decisions, achieving desired targets, planning syllabus, providing feedback to the staff but they are found inefficient in organizing school management, improving instructional techniques, managing school discipline, caring for equality and motivation of the staff, making cooperation and interpersonal relationship with the parents and the community. It is recommended that heads may exercise their discretionary powers and approaches willfully: for the effective supervision of schools in order to improve the instructional strategies, managing school control, working for the staff and the learners‟ effective performance, caring for equality and justice with the staff and establishing interpersonal relationship with the parents and the community.
