Group Identity and Civil-Military Relations in India and Pakistan By Group identity and civil-military relations in India and Pakistan by Brent Scott Williams B.S., United States Military Academy, 2003 M.A., Kansas State University, 2010 M.M.A., Command and General Staff College, 2015 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Security Studies College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2019 Abstract This dissertation asks why a military gives up power or never takes power when conditions favor a coup d’état in the cases of Pakistan and India. In most cases, civil-military relations literature focuses on civilian control in a democracy or the breakdown of that control. The focus of this research is the opposite: either the returning of civilian control or maintaining civilian control. Moreover, the approach taken in this dissertation is different because it assumes group identity, and the military’s inherent connection to society, determines the civil-military relationship. This dissertation provides a qualitative examination of two states, Pakistan and India, which have significant similarities, and attempts to discern if a group theory of civil-military relations helps to explain the actions of the militaries in both states. Both Pakistan and India inherited their military from the former British Raj. The British divided the British-Indian military into two militaries when Pakistan and India gained Independence. These events provide a solid foundation for a comparative study because both Pakistan’s and India’s militaries came from the same source. Second, the domestic events faced by both states are similar and range from famines to significant defeats in wars, ongoing insurgencies, and various other events. In short, the theory developed suggests that Pakistan’s military has repeatedly given up power because domestic cleavages caused a perception among the civilian population that the military leader should transfer power or meet other political demands. Because the military’s leadership originates from the population, that leadership identifies with the perception of the group or groups that produce the leadership. Moreover, because the military leadership is homogenous, there is limited diversity in the military leadership’s perception of a domestic cleavage and there are no other security organizations preventing the military’s actions. Conversely, in India, a more diversified military leadership and a non-unified security apparatus serve to prevent action. This dissertation examines the historical record in both states’ timelines to determine if a group theory of civil-military relations explains the actions or non-actions of both militaries. The findings largely fit the developed theory.

The United Nations has dealt with a number of international disputes and an analysis of its record should throw some light on both the opera­ tions and the value of the United Nations.

Degree Program Accepted this 5th day of May 1995 iii ABSTRACT THE INDIAN ARMY IN AFRICA AND ASIA, 1940-42: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE PLANNING AND EXECUTION OF TWO NEARLY-SIMULTANEOUS CAMPAIGNS by MAJ. James D. Scudieri, USA, 64 pages. This monograph analyzes the Indian Army's experience in conducting nearly-simultaneous campaigns in Africa and Asia between 1940-42. The Indian Army planned to defend the famed North West Frontier (NWF) with Afghanistan as well as provide reinforcements to British units worldwide in accordance with peacetime agreements. The continued decline of Allied fortunes during the early war years necessitated greater British dependence on the Indian Army and the need to inaugurate a massive expansion while fighting one, then two, major regional conflicts (MRCs) in different parts of the world. The first MRC in the Near East went well; the second MRC in Asia was a disastrous failure.

  • Politics of Combined Opposition Parties (Cop) During Ayub Khan Era (1958-1969)
    Journal of the Punjab University Historical Society Volume No. 31, Issue No. 1, January - June 2018 Akhtar Hussain * Politics of Combined Opposition Parties (Cop) During Ayub Khan Era (1958-1969) Abstract This Paper is about the Combined Opposition Parties, an electoral alliance which challenged Ayub Khan in the 1965 Presidential election. The alliance not only challenged but it gave a tough time through its effective mass mobilisation both in the urban and rural areas to one of the strongest military ruler in Pakistan. The alliance played a vital role in initiating critical debate and discussion in place of dead conformism, in rekindling and refurbishing the enfeebled and dying flame of democracy in Pakistan and thus setting the nation a new towards a democratic destiny. Furthermore this alliance made a female as its candidate for Presidentship which is a debatable issue among the orthodox Muslim scholars and religio-political parties of the country. The paper focuses on the political background, formation, strategies and politics of COP to get rid of the military ruler. The paper is mainly descriptive in approach yet partial analytical approach is also employed. Both primary and secondary sources of information are used in this article. Key Words: Democracy, Alliance politics, Military rule, Opposition politics, Political parties, Election. Introduction: Ayub Khan came into power after imposition of martial law in the country in October 1958. 1 He assured the nation about lifting of martial law with the fulfilment of its objectives i.e. removal of all the political, social, economic and administrative confusions that prevailed in the country.2 He banned all the Political parties, their offices were sealed and their capital was confiscated as according to him, “…the politicians had ruined the country through their corrupt practices”.3 In the first couple of years, he paid attention towards administration of the country and strengthening his rule.
