Notes

Parts of this chapter reproduce and expand upon previous work by the author (Fair 2013a, b, and c).

1. Pakistan’s Supreme Court first articulated this doctrine in the 1950s amid a conflict between the first Constituent Assembly and the governor-general, who did not agree with the constitution proposed by the Constituent Assembly and the “vision of parliamentary supremacy and federalism animating that document” (Kalhan 2013: 26). In that case, the court upheld the dismissal of the assembly.

2. The Muhajjirs hail from North India, speak Urdu as a mother tongue, and came to Pakistan either during partition of British India in 1947 or shortly thereafter.
