Pakistan: Flawed Not Failed State

by Dennis Kux

Fifty-four years after its creation, Pakistan remains a nation in the making, a medium-sized country important to the United States and the world at large, bordering such diverse neighbors as Iran, Afghanistan, China and India. The author traces why Pakistan has failed to achieve political stability, sustained economic growth or a clear sense of national identity and describes the evolution of its foreign and security policies.
