Pakistan, which since 9/11 has come to be seen as one of the world`s most dangerous places and has been referred to as ‘the epicenter of international terrorism’, faces an acute counterterrorism (CT) challenge. The book focuses on violence being perpetrated against the Pakistani state by Islamist groups and how Pakistan can address these challenges, concentrating not only on military aspects but on the often-ignored political, legal, law enforcement, financial, and technological facets of the challenge.
It explores the current debate surrounding Pakistan`s ability—and incentives—to crack down on Islamist terrorism and provides an in-depth examination of the multiple facets of this existential threat confronting the Pakistani state and people. With original insights and attention to detail, this book provides a roadmap for Western and Pakistani policymakers alike to address the weaknesses in Pakistan`s CT strategy.
