Recenzii
'Niloufer Siddiqui has written a fantastic book that deserves wide readership. She offers novel theory and an impressive array of evidence to explore when and how political parties deploy violence. Siddiqui blends important insights about state capacity, political polarization, and the organizational structure of parties with wide-ranging fieldwork and quantitative data from Pakistan. This is a deeply informed book that contributes to our understanding of both Pakistan specifically and the relationship between democracy and violence broadly.' Paul Staniland, The University of Chicago
'Under the Gun is an exceptional book. With great creativity and sophistication, Niloufer Siddiqui advances a novel argument about why and how political parties engage in violence. She persuasively supports her claims by deftly weaving together different kinds of evidence. Along the way, the book showcases an intimate understanding of Pakistan's politics. Under the Gun is readable yet erudite and makes an invaluable contribution to the study of political violence.' Adam Ziegfeld, Temple University
