Description
Pakistan's citizens struggle every day to fight for their right to life. People are regularly killed because of their religion, sect, ethnicity, gender in the lawless country where a culture of impunity thrives. While the nation's army is often rightly blamed for promoting radical Islamists, successive civilian governments have failed to reverse the policies of the army or protect the Pakistani citizens from unabated violence "Pakistan: A Broke Democracy" is a collection of articles by journalist Malik Siraj Akbar, a 2014-15 Edward Mason Fellow at Harvard University's John F. Kennedy School of Government, about human rights, press freedom, censorship, politics in Pakistan and the prolonged insurgency in Balochistan.
