Liminality refers to a transitory and in-between state and a British Anthropologist Victor Turner’s viewed the liminality as a transitional state between two phases in which individuals did not belong to the society that they previously were a part of and they were not yet re-incorporated that society. Ahmad discusses the transitional experiences of the people living on the Balochi border. Textual analysis has been used as a research method to interpret and analyze the text. This research discovers the concept of transition and displacement through the character of Tor Baz as a displaced person, who adopts different tribal culture to adjust in new place. The purpose of this research is to explore the sense of displacement of the people residing on the Baluchi-Irani border zone and put together the Baluchi tribal community and the urban Pakistani society to disclose the façade of civilization. The significance of this research is to evaluate the tribal societal system in the Baluchi border region and the liminal existence of the residents. The research findings reveal the treatment of the government and other tribal hegemonies responsible for the liminal condition of the people living on border zone of Pakistan.enDepartment of HumanitiesSP19EnglishBalochi borderpeople livingcivilizationDr. Sardar MuhammadThesis
