Abstract

This chapter establishes the theoretical and methodological basis that informs the study of the discursive construction of Pakistan’s representational identity. Within the International Relations literature purporting to understand Pakistan’s reality, there is a propensity to intellectually secure Pakistan within a resolute system of ontological ‘truths’. These debates then depend on, produce and reproduce knowledge on Pakistan which consequently generates Pakistan’s ‘reality’. In essence then, Pakistan is what we know about it. Considering that knowledge does not exist independently of our theories, concepts, ideas and language, the ‘reality’ of Pakistan does not exist outside our appropriations and interpretations. The chapter moves on to explore the interplay between knowledge and power and provides a comprehensive theoretical understanding of the relationship between discourse and representational practices. The chapter argues that knowledge production is not a neutral, value-free, ‘objective’ exercise and discourse is never impartial, rather knowledge constructs ‘truths’. Consequently, within the ‘truths’ constructed by a western-dominated International Relations, Pakistan’s ‘reality’ is produced and circulated. The chapter finally explores the three main tentacles of the International Relations community namely, the disciplines of International Relations and Area Studies and the think tanks.

In the Pakistani context, few studies have sought to explore how we know what we know, but invariably barring a few exceptions such as Nizamani’s work in Haider K. Nizamani, The Roots of Rhetoric: Politics of Nuclear Weapons in India and Pakistan (Praeger, 2000), most have looked inwardly at the production of knowledge. Almost all though have either analyzed discourse through an analysis of media content, and statements of policy-makers and experts in the media.

Constructivists are often distinguished be their work in terms of their epistemological and methodological commitments. They have often been assigned various juxtaposed labels such ‘conventional and ‘critical’ constructivism in Ted Hopf, “The Promise of Constructivism in International Relations Theory,” International Security 23, no. 1 (July 27, 1998): 171–200, https://​doi.​org/​10.​1162/​isec.​23.​1.​171, ‘thin’ and ‘thick’ constructivism in Peter J.

According to Zehfuss the partial essentialization of portions of reality and a doctrinal adherence to an a priori, however limited, reality of some constructivists, a platform they share with rationalists, distinguishes them from the postmodernists.

This study is not informed by a reductionist understanding of Pakistan’s political identity within the international community. It does not speak of the Islamic character of Pakistan but of how this character has been constructed. It does not speak of Pakistan’s ostensibly inadequate role in its alliance with the United States on the War on Terror as an ontological reality but of how this role has been constructed to leverage certain expectations. It does not speak of Pakistan’s state fragility as an ontological reality, but how this reality is discursively produced as a political assignment to Pakistan’s identity.

Considering how identities are constructed through representational practices, Pakistan has often been represented as a ‘greedy state’, a ‘failed state’ and a ‘garrison state’ among other less conspicuous labels.

Even though most literature in International Relations is evolving to incorporate other theories that have laid outside mainstream concerns and is becoming increasingly non-paradigmatic, however the focus on positivism continues to dominate the literature. See Daniel Maliniak et al., “International Relations in the US Academy,” International Studies Quarterly 55 (2011): 437–64, https://​doi.​org/​10.​1111/​j.​1468-2478.​2011.​00653.​x.

As is apparent for instance, most categories such as failed states, garrison state, client state, etc. that seek to codify state behavior in the Third World have their origins in the western academe.

Stephen Walt laments that “the deans and faculty at many of these institutions are a who’s who of leading figures in the foreign-policy community, and most of them remain strongly committed to exercising U.S. power far and wide. Not surprisingly, the faculties at these institutions are mostly made up of policy-oriented academics and former government officials, people who are unlikely to question the central premises that have underpinned U.S. foreign policy for many years”.
