| description |
The almost unanimous passage of a
landmark consensus constitutional amendment "the 18th
Constitutional Amendment" restored Pakistan's
constitution to its original intent of a decentralized
federation of four provinces as envisaged in the 1956 and
1973 constitutions. This amendment was hailed by policy
makers and academics alike as a major step forward in
reforming the multi-order governance in Pakistan. This paper
takes a closer look at the provisions of this amendment and
highlights both the potentials and pitfalls of the new
constitutional order for good governance in Pakistan. The
paper concludes that the amendment must be seen as a first
yet small and incomplete step in reforming multi-order
governance in Pakistan. A large unfinished reform agenda
remains to be charted. |
