Zusammenfassung
Throughout its history since independence in 1947, Pakistan has experienced different kinds of radical and extremist movements. Te “war on terror” fought by the US and NATO within the last 14 years – with a stronger emphasis on Afghanistan though – has brought several dynamics to its bigger neighbor Pakistan. This paper analyzes the root drivers of radicalism and extremism in Pakistan, from religious factors, socio-economic developments to challenges of governance reforms. It also sheds light on the confusions concerning Pakistan’s identity and gives a number of interesting recommendations for different stakeholders.
