  • 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    ELECTION MANAGEMENT AND PARTY DECISION MAKING IN PAKISTAN1 Sameen A. Mohsin Ali (SOAS) Work in Progress – Please do not cite ABSTRACT This paper argues that while the election was definitely a step in the right direction, a great deal needs to be done before democratic consolidation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.

  • Paula R. Newberg-Judging the State
    For almost five decades, Pakistan has encountered frequent, unresolved political crises. They are woven into its concepts of political community, and have underscored uneasy relationships between state institutions and civil society. Pakistan's politics has also been characterised by incomplete constitution-making, a process that has placed the burden of constitutional interpretation and political change on state instruments ranging from the bureaucracy to the military to the judiciary. The superior courts in particular have played unusually important roles in determining the country's fate, often superseding legislatures and execu- tives alike. In a penetrating and comprehensive study of the ways in which the superior judiciary has mediated relationships between state and society, Paula Newberg demonstrates how the courts have influenced the structure of the state, and their evolving jurisprudence has fashioned Pakistan's constitutions and uncertain constitutionalism. By examining judicial decisions, including those that determined the fate of govern- ments, she explores the ways that the courts have affected fundamental rights, the practice of politics, and Pakistan's democratic prospects.

During the year, PILDAT has continued the focus of its activities upon review of the public policies relating to vital issues the society has been Tfacing. The subjects of concern were deliberated well in detail by the experts and professionals in the relevant field in a transparent manner so that everybody could benefit from the discussions and opinions so expressed and so formulated. PILDAT formed a Democracy Assessment Group to carry out an objective assessment of the performance of democracy in Pakistan using an international framework. The objectives of democracy assessment are that since democracy is restored in Pakistan, the society must strive to improve and strengthen it. It is a collective responsibility of all segments of the society that democracy must deliver and succeed because the poor quality of democracy may disappoint people, lead to yet another failure and derailment of democracy. The PILDAT's initiative is an effort to make democracy deliver and work. The assessment process is a tool to promote democratic reform. It is not meant just to assess the Government alone but assess the entire society.
