(Ebook) Historical Dictionary of Pakistan (Historical Dictionaries of Asia, Oceania, and the Middle East) by Burki, Shahid Javed ISBN 9780810856011, 0810856018

The Islamic Republic of Pakistan gained its independence from the United Kingdom on August 14, 1947 and since then it has become the sixth most populous country in the world. Furthermore, Pakistan has the seventh largest army in the world, and is one of eight nations that have declared themselves nuclear powers. Pakistan's tense relations with its neighboring country of India, the recent earthquake that killed tens of thousands of its people, and the trouble it's had with the Taliban are all covered in this third edition of the Historical Dictionary of Pakistan.

This extensively expanded and updated edition covers this country's history through a chronology, a list of acronyms and abbreviations, an introductory essay, a bibliography, and some 500 cross-referenced dictionary entries presenting the more important persons, places, and events as well as salient aspects of the economy, society, culture, and religion.

Author Burki, an economist with a distinguished career in the Pakistani administration, also wrote the previous editions of this title, published in 1991 and 1999. For this edition he added several entries on what he calls "the 'Muslimization' and 'Islamization' of Pakistani society." New coverage reflects events since the terrorist attack on the U.S. in 2001 as well as the earthquake of October 8, 2005, and Pakistan's economic growth, among the highest in the developing world. The volume is part of the publisher's Historical Dictionaries of Asia, Oceania, and the Middle East series.
