Governance crisis
Pakistan was founded in 1947 by Quaid-e-Azam Mohammad Ali Jinnah and emerged as an independent state on August 14th, 1947. It has a total area of 796,095 sq km and a population of over 167 million people. Pakistan is divided into 4 provinces: Sindh, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Balochistan. The country faces a governance crisis due to factors such as lack of competent leadership, political instability, corruption, weak institutions, fragile economy, terrorism, and nepotism. Key events that exacerbated the crisis include periods of martial law beginning in 1958 and the fall of Dhaka in 1971.

Foreign policy is how a state interacts with other states and international actors. It is influenced by both internal factors like a country's geography, leadership, and public opinion, as well as external factors like the international system and other states. The foreign policy process involves decision making, which can follow rational, organizational, or bargaining models. Individual leaders and groups also influence decisions through psychological biases or pursuing their interests. A country's diplomats, interest groups, public, military, and legislature all shape its foreign policy choices.

Political Economy of a Post-Colonial State; Economic Development of Pakistan
Despite all the ups and downs, Pakistan is now the 26th largest economy in the world in terms of Purchasing Power Parity, (44th largest in terms of nominal GDP). With per capita income of US$ 4550, Pakistan occupies at 140th place on this count in the world, thanks to her burgeoning population of 200 million people. Pakistan is one of the Next Eleven, the eleven countries that, along with the BRICs, have a potential to become one of the world's large economies in the 21st century. By 2050, with an estimated GDP of $3.33 trillion, Pakistan is expected to become world’s 18th largest economy, according to Goldman Sachs. However, this progress is not as impressive as it looks or should have been keeping her potential. Similarly her dismal social indicators, structural anomalies and income disparities leave much to be desired.

Um relatório anual da revista The Economist distribuído aos bancos coloca o Brasil numa posição de “alto risco operacional” devido à pandemia da Covid-19.
O documento alerta sobre o que pode acontecer na América Latina após o coronavírus: “Haverá ‘cicatrizes’ econômicas de investimentos e perdas de capital humano, e grandes mudanças setoriais, à medida que alguns setores avançam enquanto outros lutam.”
Essas crises às vésperas das eleições podem provocar uma onda de mudança. “Em um grande ano eleitoral para a América Latina, os riscos políticos já estão se tornando evidentes. O risco político é alto à medida que os eleitores protestam contra os governantes e pedem mudanças, dando espaço para que as propostas populistas prosperem”, diz a Economist.
Segundo a revista, um dos maiores fatores de risco para o continente é a baixa eficácia dos governos federais no combate ao vírus. No caso do Brasil, Bolsonaro é citado nominalmente e acusado de “enfraquecer as instituições democráticas”.Российский обзор экономических преступлений за 2016 год
