Book
Pakistan's Strategic Culture and Foreign Policy Making. New YorkL Nova Science Publishers, 2007.
The book studies Pakistan's strategic culture and foreign policy
decision-making process with the help of Prof. Karl Deutsch's Streams of
Information Model and explains why Pakistan supported Taliban, then why it
changed that policy, noting the difficulties it is facing as a result of
the changed Afghan Policy and ends with suggestions how and where to
change Pakistan's decision making process by changing its strategic
culture, as required by Pakistan's changed Foreign/Afghan Policy.
