This textbook highlights the dynamism of Pakistan's politics and provides a comprehensive, well-researched introduction to Pakistani politics written in clear and accessible language. Structured in four thematic sections - 1. Political Foundations; 2. Political Competition; 3. Political Institutions and 4. Policy-formation - the book creates awareness about the nature of politics and the interaction among political identities, interests and institutions that leads to the formation of policy in the context of Pakistan. It provides knowledge and understanding of the structures of authority and power, behaviour of political actors and political processes in Pakistan. Identifying potential avenues for positive change in Pakistani politics, not necessarily policy prescriptions, but sources of dynamism in the everyday political life of Pakistan, the book will be of interest to students of comparative politics and political science with a particular focus on South Asia and suitable as a supplemental textbook for courses on South Asian Politics and Introductions to South Asia.
