Devolution in Pakistan: reform or regression?
Listed in ZivaHub and Deakin Research Online and DMU Figshare — shown once because both records carry DOI 10.25446/oxford.33354375.v1
This report examines Pakistani President Musharraf's devolution scheme in relation to its stated political, administrative, financial, and law enforcement objectives and assesses the impact on political stability, federal-provincial relations, and ethno-regional relations.
Description
This devolution campaign, launched by Pakistan's military government in 2000, was meant to be aimed at transferring administrative and financial power to local governments.
In practice, the report argues, it has undercut established political parties and drained power away from the provinces while doing little to minimize corruption or establish clear accountability at a local level.
