To keep pace with its heavier stake in world affairs, Pakistan has
had to significantly reform its foreign and domestic policy. On
September 11th, 2001, Pakistan's entire world picture changed
irrevocably. Suddenly a strong ally of the United States, Pakistan
quickly dismantled the Taliban position within its own borders and
aided the United States in attacking the Taliban government in
Afghanistan. In Pakistan on the Brink, historian Craig Baxter and a
team of specialists explore this U.S.-Pakistani relationship with
great dexterity. This collection of essays scrutinizes many aspects
of Pakistan's foreign policy, including its evolving relations with
the United States, India, and Afghanistan. Essential to
understanding Pakistan's foreign relations is a focus on Pakistan's
domestic policies. The contributing scholars deftly analyze the
following domestic aspects: Pakistan's developing economy,
controversial election process, education system, and local
government. Pakistan on the Brink is an imperative source for
scholars of South Asia, Pakistan, and political science.
