A generational gap is a divergence from one generation to another in terms of beliefs, customs, viewpoints, ideologies and lifestyle. However, it creates social disturbance when one generation declares itself as more rightful than the other. Previously, most researchers and scholars counted this phenomenon as the dilemma of third-world countries. However, the latest surveys indicate that the generational gap is also negatively affecting youth in various developed and developing countries including significant OIC members like Pakistan. Therefore, this study firstly uses Poterba’s model of evaluating the impacts of the generational gap on youth in Pakistan, and then tries to asses why Pashtun youth is highly been suffering from the generational gap.
