Reviews
Overall, there is little doubt that Pakistan's Political Parties marks an important, multi-faceted breakthrough in the study of Pakistan's politics and the particularities of institutional power and form found within its political sphere. From a readership perspective, the general language, analytical style, and accessibility of the volume make it well suited for both a social science academic audience looking to study Pakistan in a comparative or singular perspective, and to more curious general readers as well. * Bloomsbury Pakistan *
If I were a young diplomat heading to a political-reporting assignment in Pakistan, I would definitely want this volume on my bookshelf. It has the strength one expects from an academic work. Importantly, it conveys the tremendous diversity of Pakistan's ethnic and religious landscape, and the complexity of all the parties' relationships with the military. * Survival: Global Politics and Strategy *
