The Role Of Politics In Pakistan’s Economy
Economics and social outcames in Pakistan over the last 60 years are a mixture of paradoxes. the economics growth rate has averaged 5 percent annuanly since 1947-a feat achieved by very few countries. politically, however, the interplay of religious fundamentalism., sectarianism, ethnic cleavages and regional economics disparities has made the country volatile and unstable. Various East Asian countries that were behind Pakistan in the 1960s have surged far ahead in most economics to realize its potential.

It is usually believed that economics growth can take place only in the presence of political stability, but the Pakistani case contradicts conventional wisdom. In order to explain these paradoxes and contradictions, this article attempts to address the following questions:
1: How can a country that has suffered from political volatility and instability for such a long period achieve high economics growth?
2: How periods characterized by stable authoritarian regimes in Pakistan provided the means for long term economics performance?
3:
Have external influnces, particularly the United States, played a constructive role?
