  • Local Governments Under Military Regimes in Pakistan: a Comparative Analysis
    Pakistan Perspectives Vol. 21, No.1, January-June 2016 Local Governments under Military Regimes in Pakistan: A Comparative Analysis Arshad Syed Karim* Abstract Pakistan is a unique country which has experienced changing patterns of local governments in its political history. One significant change appeared as a common factor found in the three military regimes which were led by General Ayub Khan, General Zia-ul-Haq and General Pervaiz Musharraf. All these three military leaders explored possibilities of enhancing their popularity from the grassroot level, making local governments as their base. This research paper analyzes the characteristics of local governments given by the above there military dictators for their vested goal-achievements. However, they failed in their endeavor as their own philosophical democratic political society, leading to political development in Pakistan making them popular democratic leaders, could not be established. ______ Introduction Local government has come in the forefront of Pakistan’s political system, particularly, from the period of the military regime of General Ayub Khan. In its history of around over a decade after independence, Pakistan realized the importance of local government during the three military leaders of the country: General Ayub Khan, General Zia-ul-Haq and General Pervaiz Musharraf. Incidentally, all three of them, who ruled the country with centralized authority for little over a decade, gave emphasis upon the development of local government. Although they had come into power from above, they tried to enhance their central authority from below. Generally speaking, in the continent of Asia which remained under the political administrative control and influence of the West during the 18th, 19th and almost half of the 20th century, the value of local politics for analyzing the political system renamed insignificant.
