at the crossroads of the Middle East, Central and South Asia, and
has the second largest Muslim population in the world. The

and comprehensive coverage of issues from identity and the creation
of Pakistan in 1947 to its external relations as well as its
domestic social, economic and political issues and challenges. The
Handbook is divided into the following sections: * Economy and
development * External relations and security * Foundations and
identity * Islam and Islamization * Military and jihad * Politics

country has forged since its creation, culminating in a discussion
of the state's involvement in conflict. Covering a range of topics,
this Handbook offers a wide range of perspectives on Pakistan.
Bringing together a group of leading international scholars on
Pakistan, the Handbook is a cutting-edge and interdisciplinary
resource for those interested in studying Pakistani politics,
