It has taken me forty-four years to write this book—the length of time I have been studying Pakistan (and India). My early interests were in the role of the military, but I was unable to visit Pakistan until 1978, as an earlier application for a visa had been turned down by the government of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto.

This book undertakes a comprehensive and documented study of the role of the military in Pakistan’s society and politics with a view to explaining why and how a professional military can acquire political disposition.
The major themes have been studied with reference to three clusters of factors; the dynamics of the civil society and the working of the political institutions and processes, the military establishment and its organizational resources and professional and corporate interests; and the interaction across the functional boundaries between the military and the civil and its implications for the power balance in the polity.
The weaknesses of the civilian / political institutions and their inability to cope with diverse demands on the political system make it convenient for the senior commanders to expand their role and even assume power.
However, military intervention is not necessarily and enduring remedy but it is a part of the overall problems of weak civilian institutions and political decay.
