Crafty Oligarchs, Savvy Voters: Democracy under Inequality in Rural Pakistan - South Asia in the Social Sciences
Khan Mohmand, Shandana (University of Sussex)
This book looks at why rural Pakistani citizens vote despite their limited political agency owing to high levels of socio-economic inequality. It finds that electoral politics enables marginalized voters to strategically further their interests vis-à-vis elite groups, but that persistent inequality limits their ability to organize or compete.
