Military Inc. – Second Edition: Inside Pakistan’s Military Economy

Military Inc. – Second Edition: Inside Pakistan’s Military Economy

by Ayesha Siddiqa (Author)

Pakistan occupies a paradoxical, even contradictory place in American foreign policy. Nominally a strategic ally in the war on terror, it is the third-largest recipient of
US aid in the world. At the same time, it is run by its military and intelligence service?whose goals certainly do not always overlap with US priorities.

This book offers a close look at what the rise of the military has meant for Pakistani society. Ayesha Siddiqa shows how entrenched the military has become, not just in
day-to-day governance, but in the Pakistani corporate sector as well. What are the consequences of this unprecedented merging of the military and corporate sectors? What
does it mean for Pakistan?s economic development?let alone for hopes of an eventual return to democracy and de-militarization? This new edition brings Siddiqa?s account
fully up to date with a new preface and conclusion that emphasize the changing role of the media.
