Electoral manipulation or astute electoral strategy? Explaining the results of Pakistan’s 2018 Election
The focus of this article is to explain the outcome of Pakistan’s 2018 Election, which is only the second successful transfer of power from one civilian government to another after completing a full five-year term. The PTI (Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaaf) emerged victorious with a greater majority than was predicted, soundly defeating the incumbent ruling party PML-N (Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz). We question why an incumbent governing party that had …
The Limits of Possibilities of Religious Politics
Historically, despite the tremendous influence exerted by Islam on public life, religious parties and organisations have historically failed to do well at the ballot box, receiving an average of only 6% of votes cast in elections since the 1980s. Focusing on the case of the Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), a new Barelvi political party and social movement that has campaigned on the emotive issue of blasphemy since being formed in 2015, this arti…
Democracy and Discrimination
Drawing on fieldwork conducted in Indian and Pakistani Punjab, this paper focuses on how, despite membership in or conversion to majority religious communities, former untouchables in both countries continue to experience caste-based discrimination. In India, a rights-based idiom for caste politics is limited by fragmentation within the Dalit community and the compromises required by electoral politics, while the imposition of a totalising Islami…
Winning ‘friends’ and ‘influencing’ people
This paper examines how, since the country's transition to democracy in 2008, Pakistan's ruling parties have used the apparatuses of the state to try and build autocratic systems of single-party rule. Focusing on the 2008-2018 PML-N government in Punjab, the paper examines how the party used its control of the bureaucracy and police to influence electoral outcomes in 2013. The paper also analyzes the findings of the official Judicial Commission i…
Patronage, Populism, and Protest
Despite the over three decades of repression in Pakistan under the regimes of General Zia-ul-Haq and General Musharraf Student, student politics began its revival with the emergence of student-led activist groups during the anti-Musharraf movement of 2007. While formal student “unions” remain banned in the country, student and “youth” collectives aligned with various political parties have started to play an increasingly visible and vocal role in…
Class, Power, and Patronage
In the century following their conquest of the province, the British in Punjab erected an administrative apparatus that, like those of precolonial regimes, relied heavily upon the support of the province's landed class. The relationship between the landed class and the colonial state was one of mutual benefit, with the latter using the former to ensure the maintenance of order and collection of revenue in exchange for state patronage. In this pap…
