Democracy and dictatorship in Pakistan

Pages 477-512 | Published online: 02 Apr 2008
 

Abstract

“… despite Mr Bhutto's juggling with the command structure and his many rewards to Army and Police, there will still be a coup … this type of regime is likely not to sfart in the tradition of Suharto or Pinochet; rather, it is likely to adopt a populist and puritanical stance … In the name of an ‘Islamic way of life’, it will impose a medieval labor code in the factories; will weed out all remnants of intellectual life in the universities; and will seek to reverse all the marginal gains the peasantry has made during struggles of the past five years … and terror under such a regime, if it comes about, is likely to reach a scale heretofore unknown and unimagined in our body politic.”

Pakistan Newsletter, Vol. 1, No. 5, March 1977
