Answer and Explanation:

Well, how is any opinion formed?

Your own thoughts and experiences.

2. Marketing and media

3. Opinions/experiences of friends

4. Opinions/experiences of authorities (parents, teacher, governmental, legal, etc.)

Depending on the individual (and public opinion is simply a composite of individual opinions) the weight for each of the factors listed above differ.

When I was in my teens, the opinion of authorities was heavily weighed. I did not have sufficient experience to make good judgements.

In my 20s, my own thoughts and experiences (and those of my friends) was important, because I was gaining the experiences to formulated my own opinions.

Marketing really strives to form your opinion for you. If they can get you to believe that X is valuable, then they make more money. Warning: always listen to all sides. You do not want someone to control your opinion.

I am now in my 60s, and have sufficient experience to formulate my own opinions. I am hard to classify, because my personal experiences differ from anyone else’s.

The evolution of Pakistan Constitution

andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

Pakistan became a republic when its first constitution was approved in 1956 but this was abrogated in 1958 after a military Coup d'état. Pakistan's second constitution was approved in 1962. It granted executive power to the president and abolished the office of the prime minister. It also institutionalised the intervention of military in politics by providing that for twenty years, the president or the defence minister must be a person who had held a rank not lower than that of lieutenant-general in the army. The 1962 constitution was suspended in 1969 and abrogated in 1972. The 1973 constitution was the first in Pakistan to be framed by elected representatives. Unlike the 1962 constitution it gave Pakistan a parliamentary democracy with executive power concentrated in the office of the prime minister, and the formal head of state—the president—limited to acting on the advice of the prime minister. The Constitution states that all laws are to conform with the injunctions of Islam as laid down in the Quran and Sunnah. The 1973 Constitution also created certain institutions such as the Shariat Court and the Council of Islamic Ideology to channel the interpretation and application of Islam.
