Description

Explore the complex dynamics of power in one of the world's most significant nuclear states. Military Control in Pakistan: The Parallel State offers a deep look into the role of the military as the most influential actor in the country. This volume from the Routledge Advances in South Asian Studies series challenges common assumptions regarding political instability in Pakistan. Rather than focusing on ethnic or religious divides, or the economic mismanagement often blamed for civilian failure, this study provides a new perspective. Author Mazhar Aziz argues that military intervention is driven by the protection of the military's own institutional interests. When civilian governments are seen as a threat to these interests, the military acts to remove them. This book is an essential resource for readers interested in South Asian politics, military history, and the structural forces that shape governance in Pakistan. It provides a clear framework for understanding why political shifts occur and how the military maintains its position within the state.
