Description

Author: Dr Basharat Hussain

Pages: 272

The contemporary political history of Pakistan remains incomplete without a study of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP). Since its inception in 1967, it has been either the party in power or the party in opposition. The story of the PPP is the saga of the struggles, dreams and disappointments of the people and politicians of Pakistan.
This book delves into the party’s 34-year history, from the hanging of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto in 1979 to 2013. This period witnessed an intense power struggle between the civilian and military leadership, and the PPP was at the thick of this struggle.
Dr. Basharat Hussain charts this struggle in depth and, in the process, answers several key questions:
*     How did the party survive despite the persecution of its leaders and workers?
*     Why did the party abandon its revolutionary fervour in favour of liberal capitalism?
*     What was the nature of its opposition to civilian and military governments?
*     How good—or bad—was its governance while in power?
