Research and Markets: View this Excellent Study into the US-Pakistan Partnership under the Reagan Administration

Dublin - Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/reports/c22436) has announced the addition of US-Pakistan Relationship to their offering

Hilali provides an excellent study into the US-Pakistan partnership under the Reagan administration. The book explores the causes of Pakistan's involvement in the Afghanistan war and the United States support to prevent Soviet adventurism. It shows that Pakistan was the principal channel through which assistance was provided to Afghan freedom fighters; it also provided access to its military bases to use against the Soviet Union.

The study looks at the consequences of the war on Pakistan and explains how it became enmeshed within its domestic politics. Furthermore, it evaluates the role of Pakistan as a key partner in the global coalition against terrorism and discusses how General Pervez Musharraf brought about Pakistan's development towards a progressive, moderate and democratic society. Ideally suited to courses on foreign policy.

Topics covered:

- The geopolitics of US interests in South Asia
- Pakistan's security dilemma
- Motives behind the US-Pakistan relationship
- Pakistan's response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan
- The US response to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan
- The Afghan crisis and its consequences for Pakistan
