Political conflict is endemic to a postcolonial state such as Pakistan. Reformulation of the political system after independence draws on a gradual encroachment of tradition defined in terms of identity and ideology over modernity represented by institutional design and citizen orientations. Partition led to structural discontinuity in Pakistan as a seceding state as opposed to India which was a successor state. This book explores the way militarization and judicialization of politics centralized state authority and rendered the federalist arrangement into an empty shell.
