This research explores the impact of media convergence on media consumption habits and audience behavior. As various media platforms and technologies merge, this convergence transforms how audiences engage with content. The study investigates the implications of this blend on audience fragmentation and integration, revealing a dual effect where viewers are both scattered across diverse platforms and brought together through shared experiences. It examines how perceptions and attitudes toward content evolve in this context, emphasizing the role of cognitive processes in shaping media choices. Additionally, the research highlights how media convergence influences social dynamics and identity construction, reshaping interactions among audiences. Findings indicate that while media convergence can fragment audiences by creating niche markets, it also fosters integration through common interests and shared narratives. Furthermore, it enhances content perception, significantly affecting how individuals relate to media and to each other. Ultimately, this study provides valuable insights into the complexities of audience behavior in a rapidly converging media landscape, underscoring the importance of understanding these trends for future media strategies and communications.

South Asian regionalism, envisaged as a framework for cooperative development and collective security, has faced persistent challenges since the inception of the South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) in 1985. The dominant narrative of Indian–Pakistani rivalry, structural asymmetries among member states, and the inability of SAARC to evolve into an effective multilateral institution have stymied regional integration and cooperation. In response, India has progressively reoriented its regional engagement toward alternative frameworks such as the Bay of Bengal Initiative for Multi-Sectoral Technical and Economic Cooperation (BIMSTEC), aligning with its broader foreign policy goals including the ―Act East‖ and ―Neighbourhood First‖ initiatives. This paper examines India’s historical role and evolving strategies in South Asian regionalism, critically analysing the limitations of SAARC, the emergent collaborative prospects through sub-regional mechanisms, and India’s potential to reshape regional cooperation beyond the shadows of rivalry. By exploring political, economic, and security dimensions of regionalism, it highlights how India can transition from a posture defined by bilateral tensions to one that fosters inclusive cooperation, connectivity, and shared prosperity across South Asia. The study suggests that genuine regional collaboration will depend on structural reform of existing institutions, multifaceted cooperation in trade and infrastructure, and India’s diplomatic willingness to reconcile strategic interests with collective regional goals.

The Cold War era, spanning from the end of the Second World War in 1945 to the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, marked a defining epoch in international relations. The bipolar structure of global politics, constituted by the ideological rivalry between the United States and the Soviet Union, reshaped diplomatic, economic, military, and cultural landscapes across continents. This research paper explores the evolution of world politics under the influence of bipolarity, tracing how superpower competition permeated regional conflicts, shaped global institutions, and ultimately engendered transitions toward unipolarity and multipolar visions in the post–Cold War phase. By examining key events and ideological frameworks, the paper underscores how bipolarity influenced both international cooperation and confrontation, and how its eventual dissolution reconfigured global power dynamics. The analysis situates the Cold War not merely as a binary confrontation but as a transformative period that laid the foundation for contemporary global politics, highlighting the enduring legacies of its structural patterns and policy paradigms.

Fiscal tool such as value added tax is employed to enable government finance its public activities with a view to minimizing the distortions created by market forces. There is no doubt that value added tax, indeed increases government revenue, but how has the revenue generated from value added tax impacted on economic development of Nigeria is an issue of concern among other factors. This outcome focused on the effect of Value Added tax on social welfare in Nigeria. The outcome utilized vector Error correction model based on pooled data frame work for the period 1993 – 2023. The use of VECM was to determine the short-run dynamics and long-run equilibrium adjustment among the various variables while Philip-Peron Test was conducted to ascertain the stationarity of the variable in the time series. The outcome of the outcome indicate that value added tax had insignificant contribution to social welfare in Nigeria. The outcome conclude that higher value added tax efficiency may coincide with lower levels of economic distress and when well-managed can contribute to reducing unemployment rate over time. Based on the outcome of the outcome, recommendations and conclusion were made.
