    Journal of Peace Studies, Vol. 16, Issue 1-2, January – June, 2009. How Military Dominates the Political Space in Pakistan: A Study of Musharraf’s Rule (1999-2008) Ashok K. Behuria* [*Dr. Ashok K Behuria is Editor, International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, India. He is also Honorary Consulting Editor, Journal of Peace Studies, New Delhi.] Where civilian opinion is inchoate, and its organisation feeble…the armed forces are invulnerable, because the potential civilian opposition is so feeble and confused. S.E. Finer1 General Pervez Musharraf stayed in power for almost nine years—between October 1999 and September 2008), two years short of his two earlier predecessors in uniform (Ayub Khan and Zia-ul-Haq). During these years, he was busy in the game of political engineering to win over political forces amenable to his influence to lend his rule a nominal popular base, in spite of his visceral hatred for political forces. It is interesting to note that political leadership of all hues were eager to court the military ruler, knowing fully well that this will retard the pace and process of democracy in Pakistan. General Pervez Musharraf came to power with promises of reforming Pakistani politics and ushering in true democracy. The people of Pakistan trusted him. But as he embarked on his endeavour, he considered himself indispensable. In a bid to perpetuate his hold on power, he employed the strategy of divide-and-rule to keep the political forces disunited. The politicians were also seen to be playing into his hands and participating indulgently in his game of power- politics.

  • Rising Debt: a Serious Threat to the National Security by Dr
    Rising Debt: A Serious Threat to the National Security by Dr. Ashfaque H. Khan* I. Introduction Pakistan’s external and public debts are growing at a threatening pace for the last eight years (2008-15) owing to fiscal profligacy on the one hand and substantial decline in non-debt creating inflows as well as a decline in exports, on the other. The speed at which the governments have borrowed during the period has caused serious alarm in various circles as it is considered to be something that is posing a serious threat to the national security. The recent pace of accumulation of debt suggests that, if remain unchecked, Pakistan’s public debt in general and external debt in particular would reach an unsustainable level in the next five years. The size of the external debt in particular would be large enough for Pakistan to service its external debt obligations in an orderly manner. Apart from the direct consequences for national security, rising debt is also a threat to macroeconomic stability and hence to growth, employment generation and poverty. It is well- known that high and rising debt depress investment by increasing uncertainty. As the size of the public debt increases, there is a growing uncertainty about the actions and policies that the government will resort to in order to meet its debt service obligations, with adverse effects on investment. In particular, as the stock of public debt increases, there may be expectations that the government’s debt service obligation will be financed by distortionary measures. In these circumstances, potential private investors will prefer to divert their activities towards quick return investment rather than long-term, high risk and irreversible projects.
