      abstract = {Describing Pakistan's likely future course, this book  seeks to inform U.S. efforts to achieve an effective  foreign policy strategy toward the country. The book forms  an empirical analysis of developments in Pakistan and an  assessment of the effectiveness of U.S. policy as of August  2009. Drawing on interviews of elites, polling data, and  statistical data on Pakistan's armed forces, the book  presents a political and political-military analysis.  Primary data and analyses from Pakistanis and international  economic organizations are used in the book's demographic  and economic analyses. The book assesses Pakistan's own  policies, based on similar sources, on government  documents, and on the authors' close reading of the  assessments of several outside observers. The book also  discusses U.S. policy regarding Pakistan, which was based  on interviews with U.S. policymakers and on U.S. policy  documents. The policy recommendations are based on an  assessment of the findings in all these areas. The book  concludes with a number of recommendations for the U.S.  government and the U.S. Air Force concerning how the United  States could forge a broad yet effective relationship with  this complicated state. --Publisher description.},
