Fiscal Federalism In Pakistan
By SHABIH ALI MOHIB

“This book is an invaluable overview of the recent evolution of the Pakistan federation since the milestone passage of the 18th Constitutional Amendment in 2010. The authors provide a forthright evaluation of strengths and shortcomings of the functioning of the various levels of government. They emphasize the importance of further devolving responsibilities to localities, increasing the number of provincial governments, pursuing an effective internal common market, and strengthening the fiscal transfer system. The authors provide clear and persuasive proposals for the way forward, drawing on the lessons from federations around the world. This will be an authoritative reference book for years to come. and - Robin Boadway -David Chadwick Smith Chair in Economics Emeritus, Queen's University, Canada.“Mohib and Shah have assembled a set of expert analyses of the current status of federalism in Pakistan, and proposals for bold new reforms.and This book provides a new starting point for researchers and policy makers working in this field. and - Roy Bahl -Regents Professor of Economics, Emeritus, Georgia State University, USA
