Impacts of Civil-Military Relations on Foreign Policy: A Case of Pakistan
Abstract
This study is a pragmatic effort to explore the effect of civil military relations on foreign policy of Pakistan. One of the essential customs for a democratic system is strong civil-military relations but in history there are certain states in which military take over the civilian government. While observing Pakistan’s history, it was evident that the absence of democratic values in our political culture has permitted the military to effortlessly infiltrate all parts of the legislative framework. Knock down over democratic institutes by Military Dictators started soon after independence. There were many difficulties which provoked uncertainty towards a stable governmental framework in Pakistan. In this research both analytical and descriptive methods will be utilized. The analytical method helps to understand the existing literature in perspective of Pakistan’s foreign policy and its role in international domain. This paper also recommends some possibilities and comprehensive techniques to opt for better democratic setup
