Paper long abstract:

National-regional-international decision making structures widely impact nation state systems. Post 9/11 geo-political configurations indicate reduction of state sovereignty. It is found: Post 9/11 decisions have proliferated terrorism in Pakistan making it state at risk. The topic is significant to flash Pakistan in international decision making structures referred to counter terrorism. This paper presents US-AFPAK policy specimen to give the analysis some peculiarity. It emphasizes four topics: (1) Contents of AFPAK policy. (2) The intent implications of AFPAK policy; actually defines how it impels Pakistan foreign policy. (3) On ground implications of AFPAK policy; underscores the reasons which dispel its effectiveness. (4) Policy options for Pakistan. The making and implementation components of this policy not only differ in composition but also in capacity and support system. Such predicament enforces to assume the failure of AFPAK policy; but truth of this assumption is subject to implementation and implications. The scenario sets the objective to suggest policy options for Pakistan in view of trouble to rationalize the foreign policy of Pakistan.
