  • Election Management and Party Decision Making in Pakistan1
    ELECTION MANAGEMENT AND PARTY DECISION MAKING IN PAKISTAN1 Sameen A. Mohsin Ali (SOAS) Work in Progress – Please do not cite ABSTRACT This paper argues that while the election was definitely a step in the right direction, a great deal needs to be done before democratic consolidation takes place in Pakistan. I argue that electoral mismanagement; the powerlessness of the ECP; and, the intervention of an activist Supreme Court in the run up to the election shaped how parties made candidate selection decisions, and in turn, impacted the voters‘ choices. In order to highlight these issues with the electoral process, I will discuss (1) the structure and staffing of the ECP, linking the notion of bureaucratic agency to malpractices within the Commission; and (2) the powerlessness of the ECP in light of 4 issues that were relevant in the run up to 11 May 2013, leaving a gap for the Supreme Court to fill. This is not a normative argument; instead, this paper present a picture of how the actors involved in the electoral process are interlinked, influencing each other‘s decisions and behaviour, leaving loopholes for other actors to fill. It indicates how these interactions might impact the electoral process in Pakistan, and suggests that further research on the issue may yield observations of interest. INTRODUCTION Following the May 2013 election, there have been numerous accusations of misconduct, mismanagement, and rigging. With some of these accusations, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has dealt promptly and well, for example, re-polling at polling stations in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa where women were barred from voting.

Pakistan claimed the honours in the dress rehearsal for the final with a memo- rable victory over the world champions in a dramatic day/night encounter at Trent Bridge on Tuesday. The game lived up to its billing right from the onset as Saeed Anwar and Saleem Elahi tore into the Australia attack. Elahi was in particularly impressive form, blast- ing 79 from 91 balls as Pakistan plundered 290 from their 50 overs. But, never wanting to be outdone, the Australians responded in fine style with Adam Gilchrist attacking the Pakistan bowling with equal relish. The wicketkeep- er sensationally raced to his 20th one-day international half-century in just 29 balls on his way to a quick-fire 70. Once Saqlain Mushtaq had ended his 44-ball knock however, skipper Waqar Younis stepped up to take the game by the scruff of the neck. The pace star is bowling as well as he has done in years as his side come to the end of their tour of England and his figures of six for 59 fully deserved the man of the match award and to take his side to victory.

  • 10 Pakistan's Nuclear Program
    10 PAKISTAN’S NUCLEAR PROGRAM Laying the groundwork for impunity C. Christine Fair Contemporary analysts of Pakistan’s nuclear program speciously assert that Pakistan began acquiring a nuclear weapons capability after the 1971 war with India in which Pakistan was vivisected. In this conventional account, India’s 1974 nuclear tests gave Pakistan further impetus for its program.1 In fact, Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto, Pakistan’s first popularly elected prime minister, ini- tiated the program in the late 1960s despite considerable opposition from Pakistan’s first military dictator General Ayub Khan (henceforth Ayub). Bhutto presciently began arguing for a nuclear weapons program as early as 1964 when China detonated its nuclear devices at Lop Nor and secured its position as a permanent nuclear weapons state under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT). Considering China’s test and its defeat of India in the 1962 Sino–Indian war, Bhutto reasoned that India, too, would want to develop a nuclear weapon. He also knew that Pakistan’s civilian nuclear program was far behind India’s, which predated independence in 1947. Notwithstanding these arguments, Ayub opposed acquiring a nuclear weapon both because he believed it would be an expensive misadventure and because he worried that doing so would strain Pakistan’s western alliances, formalized through the Central Treaty Organization (CENTO) and the South-East Asia Treaty Organization (SEATO). Ayub also thought Pakistan would be able to buy a nuclear weapon “off the shelf” from one of its allies if India acquired one first.2 With the army opposition obstructing him, Bhutto was unable to make any significant nuclear headway until 1972, when Pakistan’s army lay in disgrace after losing East Pakistan in its 1971 war with India.
