In Role Compatibility as Socialization, Dorothee Vandamme examines
Pakistan's socialization process in terms of role compatibility in
the 2008-2018 period. Adopting an Interpretative phenomenological
analysis (IPA) method of analysis, Vandamme builds on role theory
to develop a theory of socialization as role compatibility to
explain the dynamics of Pakistan's (dys)functioning position and
its status-seeking process as a fully functioning member of the
international system. Specifically, she focuses on how Pakistani
civilian and military leaders define their country's positioning
towards India, the United States and China. In doing so, she traces
the link between domestic role contestation at the country's
inception and the resulting domination of the military's conception
of their country, state identity, how it projects itself externally
and how it is received by others. Departing from strictly
structural or agent-oriented explanations, Vandamme expertly
demonstrates Pakistan's perceived role compatibility with
significant others and underlines the causality between state
identity, foreign policy behavior and socialization. Role
Compatibility as Socialization will be of interest to graduate
students and researchers who work on and with role theory and
socialization theory, and for those with a research interest on
South Asia.
