In Search of Lost Glory
Sindhi nationalism is one of the oldest yet least studied cases of identity politics in Pakistan. Ethnic discontent appeared in Sindh in opposition to the rule of the Bombay presidency; to the onslaught of Punjabi settlers in the wake of canal irrigation; and, most decisively, to the arrival of millions of Muhajirs (Urdu-speaking migrants) after Partition. Under Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Benazir Bhutto and Asif Zardari, the Pakistan People's Party has upheld the Sindhi nationalist cause, even while playing the game of federalist politics. On the other side for half a century have been hardcore Sindhi nationalist groups, led by Marxists, provincial autonomists, landlord pirs and liberal intelligentsia in pursuit of ethnic outbidding. This book narrates the story of the Bhutto dynasty, the Muhajir factor, nationalist ideologues, factional feuds amongst landed elites, and the role of violence as a maker and shaper of Sindhi nationalism. Moreover, it examines the role of the PPP as an ethnic entrepreneur through an analysis of its politics within the electoral arena and beyond. Bringing together extensive fieldwork and comparative studies of ethno-nationalism, both within and outside Pakistan, Asma Faiz uncovers the fascinating world of Sindhi nationalism.

The ideology of Pakistan is not defined, but it has a pervasive influence over the state and society. Ayub stated that this ideology is Islam. General Asim Munir equates it with the Two-Nation Theory. The idea of a distinct Muslim identity was shaped by Sir Syed Ahmad Khan, Iqbal and Jinnah. They saw it in terms of conflict with the majority Hindu community. This view was challenged by Maulana Madani, who called for composite nationality. He was criticized by Iqbal and Maududi. In his famous speech of 11 August 1947, Jinnah said that religion has nothing to do with the business of the State. This proved to be a short-lived departure from his Two-Nation Theory. Kaliquzzaman, who succeeded Jinnah as president of Pakistan's Muslim League, has an interesting explanation for Jinnah's about-turn. The Lahore Resolution called for independent 'states'; Jinnah tried to change it to 'state'. This ambivalence could not be wished away and eventually led to the emergence of Bangladesh. The Baloch struggle shows that the idea of nationality remains alive. The Pakistan Army regards itself as the defender of the country's territorial and ideological frontiers. Do its Afghanistan, Kashmir and nuclear policies reflect ideologies, strategies or territorial interests? The Army's legitimacy is now being challenged by Imran's supporters. The increasing radicalization of Pakistani society has implications beyond the region. It is no coincidence that Al Qaeda's leadership found sanctuary in Pakistan after 9/11. Though the country has received twenty-five IMF bailout packages, its economy remains in a precarious state. In Pakistan: Ideologies, Strategies and Interests Dinkar Srivastava traces Pakistan's evolution and drift to an uncertain future.
