Foreign Affairs Article — Summary
Daniel Markey's update to his July/August 2007 essay "A False Choice in Pakistan."
July/August 2007
Foreign Affairs Article — Summary
Americans are increasingly frustrated with Pakistan's counterterrorism efforts, but the United States should resist the urge to threaten President Pervez Musharraf or demand a quick democratic transition.

With the insights of geopolitical experts and investors, the authors examine this nation’s adversity-driven culture to answer this question and offer prescriptions for a global economy on the rebound.
In Forces of Fortune, Vali Nasr presents a paradigm-changing revelation that will transform the understanding of the Muslim world at large.
