  • 'Nuclear Learning in Pakistan Since 1998'
    ‘Nuclear Learning in Pakistan since 1998’ Naeem Ahmad Salik (20881392) B.A., Pakistan Military Academy, 1974; M.A. (History), University of the Punjab, 1981; B.Sc. Hons. (War Studies), Balochistan University, 1985; M.Sc. (International Politics and Strategic Studies), University of Wales, Aberystwyth, 1990. This thesis is presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Western Australia School of Social Sciences Political Science and International Relations and the Centre for Muslim States and Societies (CMSS) 2015 Abstract Nuclear learning is a process through which states that acquire nuclear weapons capability learn to manage it through the development of nuclear doctrines, command and control structures, safety and security mechanisms, regulatory regimes and acquire an understanding of both the technological characteristics of these weapons as well as their politico-strategic ramifications. This enables them to achieve a stable strategic balance through a sagacious application of these formidable instruments of power. Pakistan’s nuclear programme has always been beset with controversies and viewed with concern by the international community. These concerns have been accentuated by the spill over of the war in Afghanistan and the widespread incidence of terrorism and extremism within the country itself. In the pre-1998 period Pakistan had adopted a policy of ambiguity and denial of a nuclear weapons programme which combined with the secrecy surrounding the programme had stifled any discussion of issues related to management of an operational nuclear capability and it only started coming to grips with these issues after the May 1998 nuclear tests. This study about Pakistan’s learning experience in managing its nuclear capability suggests that a state that is perpetually afflicted by political instability and weak institutional structures could effectively handle its nuclear arsenal like a normal nuclear state provided it expends requisite effort and resources towards this end.

  • Pakistan Daudkhel Fertilizer Plant Modernization Project(1)(2)
    Pakistan Daudkhel Fertilizer Plant Modernization Project(1)(2) Field Survey: August 2003 1. Project Profile and Japan’s ODA Loan Afghanistan Islamabad PRC Project Site Nepal Pakistan India Karachi Map of Project Area Daudkhel Fertilizer Plant 1.1 Background In fiscal years 1987 and 1988, the agricultural sector in Pakistan was the largest economic sector, accounting for 24.5% of the gross domestic product (GDP)1. According to the national census of 1988, the number of workers employed in agriculture accounted for 49.2%, approximately half of all employed workers. Meanwhile, at the time this project was planned, the growth rate of agricultural production was low, at 1.2% (1980s) compared to the population growth rate of 2.6%, and so further promotion of the agricultural sector was considered necessary. However, according to FAO statistics, the percentage of irrigated farmland in Pakistan in 1984 was already high, at 60.6%, compared to the global average of 4.75%2. Since the cost of further increasing the percentage irrigated farmland was prohibitive, the government decided to place emphasis in its basic agricultural development policy on increasing the harvest per hectare through mechanization of agriculture and fertilizer usage, etc. At the planning time of this project, there were nine fertilizer plants in Pakistan capable of producing 1.83 million tons/year of urea, 450,000 tons/year of lime nitrogen, 300,000 tons/year of compound and mixed fertilizer, and 90,000 tons/year each of ammonium sulfate and phosphoric fertilizer. However, even if one included the fertilizer plant expansion planned at that time as part of the government’s plan to increase the amount of fertilizer used, there would still be a shortage of domestic fertilizer, and an annual shortage of 330,000 tons of nitrogen fertilizer3 was forecast for 1993.
