Abstract

During the course of history Pakistan is greatly influenced by changing global political conditions as well as romanticism which perpetually influence the fragmented considerations of the region. To understand a political evolution in postcolonial South Asia, it is important to observe its relations within power politics on a profound consideration of political dynamics. Even Political theorists and policy analysts are persuaded to make policy assessments out of ahistorical approaches and falsified deductions. The result is always that the complications prevail endlessly in the region. For that reason, it is important to rethink global political history of South Asia. To be sure, the proper insinuations of contemporary age issues can only be examined when changing dynamics of global power interests is taken as a discourse integral to the enormous flux of international political milieu. Keeping in view the historical undercurrents, this study provides a conceptual framework for preparing Pakistan for the conduct of its foreign policy and planning peace and development strategy in line with futuristic research.
