Pakistan Under Siege Extremism, Society, and the State (PDF) (Print)

Much of the current work on extremism in Pakistan tends to study extremist trends in the country from a detached position_a top-down security perspective, that renders a one-dimensional picture of what is at its heart a complex, richly textured country of 200 million people. In this book, using rigorous analysis of survey data, in-depth interviews in schools and universities in Pakistan, historical narrative reporting, and her own intuitive understanding of the country, Madiha Afzal gives the full picture of PakistanÕs relationship with extremism.
