Crises of Democracy Pakistan

Abstract

Events in Pakistan after independence, examined by the author have different perceptions and references. One of them is the crisis of institutions within state to actualize the democratic problems. The purpose to write this research paper is to examine those forces who served major obstacles to undermine the democratization process in Pakistan. Although Pakistan has mixed feelings regarding democracy yet impacts are still to be researched. This research paper is an attempt to introduce a reasonable brief acquaintance with the history of Pakistan in terms of institutionalization process in Pakistan under the military and civilian regimes. In Pakistan the understanding towards institutionalization is at undermine level. Institutionalization process is a process which has dire need of understanding of norms and values of a subjected society. From 1947 to 1971 little bit importance had been given to democratic process but in post 1971 Era the institutions has been framed to promote the process of democracy. It has the clear thinking that Pakistan has self-centered political framework which denied the role of institutions.
