Naval Postgraduate School (U.S.) Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited K from India, to weaken India and its army, and to mobilize international support for Pakistan's position on Kashmir. While this strategy had some initial success, it slowly began to damage key political, economic and social structures within Pakistan. The thesis looks at both the gains and the pitfalls of LIC, and its impact on Pakistan's "well being," as measured by its prosperity, stability and international stature from the periods 1971 to 1989 and 1990 to 2009. The analysis shows that on balance, LIC is doing Pakistan more harm than any good. The thesis concludes by suggesting policy options open to Pakistan, the United States and India. 2012-03-14T17:44:00Z 2012-03-14T17:44:00Z 2010-12 Thesis http://hdl.handle.net/10945/5046 698377040 This publication is a work of the U.S. Government as defined in Title 17, United States Code, Section 101.
