When the British dismantled their Raj in 1947, India, as the successor state, inherited the colonial unitary central apparatus whereas Pakistan, as the seceding state, had no semblance of a central government. In The State of Martial Rule, Ayesha Jalal analyses the dialectic between state construction and political processes in Pakistan in the first decade of the countrys independence and convincingly demonstrates how the imperatives of the international system in the cold war era combined with regional and domestic factors to mould the structure of the Pakistani state. Professor Jalal examines the way in which the senior echelons of the civil bureaucracy and military succeeded in tilting the institutional balance of power against parties and politicians and analyses the strategic concerns and economic constraints which prompted Pakistans first military coup detat in 1958. She also explores the role of Islam in the balance between state and society and sheds light on the recurring tensions between the Pakistani centre and the provinces and the related problem of ethnicity. The study concludes by placing the state and political developments in Pakistan since 1958 within a conceptual framework. ISBN - 9780521059503
