Final Year Project

Project Title

From Mohajir to Urdu-Speaking: A Mixed Methods Study Exploring the Post-Partition Immigrant Identity

Description

This is a mixed methods exploratory study on the social group identity of the Urdu-speaking Mohajir community in Karachi. Touching upon the themes of partition, intergenerational trauma, healing, and ethnicity, it aims to study community development in post-colonial societies like Pakistan. The qualitative strand of this thesis includes in-depth interviews with three generations of Urdu-speaking Mohajir families living in Karachi, leading to the quantitative strand which consists of a quantitative survey that evaluates the Urdu-speaking Mohajir identity using an ethnic identity scale.
