Pakistan has over the decades become a hotbed for the terrorist
ideology often referred to as Jihadism. This book investigates the
underlying principles of Pakistan's foreign policy from 1947 until
the present day, and explains the rise of Jihadism as an offshoot
of Pakistan's security concerns. The book goes on to discuss that
from its inception as a separate state, Pakistan's foreign policy
focused on seeking parity' with India and escaping' from an Indian
South Asian identity. The desire to achieve parity with its much
larger neighbour led Pakistan to seek the assistance and support of
allies. The author analyses the relationship Pakistan has with
Afghanistan, United States, China and the Muslim world, and looks
at how these relationships are based on the desire that military,
economic and diplomatic aid from these countries would bolster
Pakistan's meagre resources in countering Indian economic and
military strength. The book presents an interesting contribution to
South Asian Studies, as well as studies on International Relations
and Foreign Policy.
