The seminar brings together diverse perspectives on the struggle for democratic spaces in the face of increasing militarization and militancy. What is the role of the media in supporting the democratic struggle and in countering 'disappearances', air-strikes, and attacks on journalists, gender violence and increase in 'religious' extremism? What are the broader implications of these trends for Pakistan, South Asia and beyond? What is the role and impact of US foreign policy? What are the positive trends and how can they be strengthened?
