Bureaucracy in Pakistan

By Maxwell F. Kennedy and Charles H. Kennedy

A candid and perceptive expos of the complex and intricate administrative network of Pakistan, this study traces the steady transition of the bureaucratic lite from an important constituent in the state to a pervasive power in statecraft. Covering pre-reform, reform, and post-reform periods, Kennedy presents a balanced, critical analysis of the role of various aspects of the bureaucracy and contends that Pakistan's bureaucratic philosophy remains governed by 19th-century conventions that hinder administrative reform and development.
