Social Sciences that help resolving various problems produced by
technology or material progress are all having there roots in
philosophy. In order to polish these social sciences and to create
harmony between the material environment and our thought process,

philosophy. Present era needs the development of such a rich and
deep-rooted discipline such as philosophy. The confusion and
conflicts of our era can be reduced and a soothing harmony between
technology and cognition can be created if philosophy is given due
importance in our societies. The very history of Greece, India, Persia
and Europe is the evidence that behind every enalightment era there
was immense development of philosophical thoughts. In Pakistan no
