Community Development Failures in Pakistan: A Sociological Analysis and Pathways to Improvement by Dr. Saira Siddiqui examines the persistent challenges in Pakistan’s community development efforts through a sociological lens. The book explores how systemic barriers—such as economic inequality, political instability, and cultural norms—undermine developmental initiatives. It traces the historical trajectory of development in Pakistan, highlighting a shift from centralized, top-down strategies to participatory models. Despite this progress, failures remain pervasive due to misaligned policies and insufficient community engagement.
