Description

This collection of original essays covers a wide swath of intellectual territory and includes a truly multidisciplinary array of scholarly voices. Considering issues as diverse as non-violent Islamic mass movements, the collection and use of Zaka, the Taliban, and U.S.-Pakistan relations in the post-nuclear test period, Pakistan 2000 represents the best new writing in the field. Brought together by two distinguished scholars with extensive practical experience in Pakistan, this volume will appeal to specialists and others who are interested in foreign affairs in South Asia, Pakistan's relationship with the United States, population studies, economics, and Islamic studies.
