Zaigham Khan is a well-known Pakistani anthropologist who has been analyzing recent events very provocatively in several columns in newspapers.
In this episode, he takes a ‘deep dive’ into Pakistan’s continuing struggle to find stable system of governance. While the current political impasse in which the judiciary, politicians and the establishment are all seeking supremacy is under considerable discussion on a daily basis in the media, there is little understanding of the deeper causes of the country’s political impasse.
Here we examine this continuing crisis from several points of view—historically, sociologically, economically and of politically.
The discussion is very interesting and informative especially who want to move beyond the mundane debate of the media pundits and the vacuous politicians.
