Pakistan is a developing country of the Monsoon Asia with dense concentration of population in the plain areas of the Indus and other rivers. Due to its unique geographical setting, it is prone to various natural disasters including floods. There is a whole trail of death and destruction left behind by devastating floods. But, the 2010 floods in the country were unprecedented because of their vast areal coverage, loss of thousands of lives and large-scale destruction. This study is an analysis of the impact of the 2010 floods on the environment and economy of Pakistan. The study begins with the environmental characteristics of the study area to understand the drainage, water availability and flooding patterns in different parts of the country. Then, a study of the flood history of Pakistan has been undertaken to identify possible causes of floods, rescue and management operations and preparedness for the future. The immediate damage and losses to the environment and economy have been separately studied, followed by the impact of the floods resulting from widespread damages to the different sectors of the economy and environment. The study reveals that the floods had a severe impact on the habitat, ecology and lives of thousands of animals in the country. The actual impact on the environment was so vast and far-reaching that it is difficult to comprehend and express it in numerical terms. Therefore, in the study it has also been argued that loss of buildings, infrastructure and agriculture is actually a loss of environment. All sectors of the economy were affected by the floods but agriculture, housing and transport and communication sectors were severely hit and had brought the whole country to a standstill. Rescue and rehabilitation efforts carried out with the help of international cooperation achieved some degree of success. But, for the future, Pakistan has to take many physical, organisational and technological measures to deal effectively with natural disasters including floods. There are many lessons to be learnt from the disastrous 2010 floods and hopefully this study will be useful in that direction.

While policy makers, media, and the international community focus their attention on Pakistan’s ongoing security challenges, the potential of the rural economy, and particularly the agricultural sector, to improve Pakistanis’ well-being is being neglected. Agriculture is crucial to Pakistan’s economy. Almost half of the country’s labor force works in the agricultural sector, which produces food and inputs for industry (such as cotton for textiles) and accounts for over a third of Pakistan’s total export earnings. Equally important are nonfarm economic activities in rural areas, such as retail sales in small village shops, transportation services, and education and health services in local schools and clinics. Rural nonfarm activities account for between 40 and 57 percent of total rural household income. Their large share of income means that the agricultural sector and the rural nonfarm economy have vital roles to play in promoting growth and reducing poverty in Pakistan.

The purpose of this paper is to empirically determine the effects of political instability on economic growth. Using the system-GMM estimator for linear dynamic panel data models on a sample covering up to 169 countries, and 5-year periods from 1960 to 2004, we find that higher degrees of political instability are associated with lower growth rates of GDP per capita. Regarding the channels of transmission, we find that political instability adversely affects growth by lowering the rates of productivity growth and, to a smaller degree, physical and human capital accumulation. Finally, economic freedom and ethnic homogeneity are beneficial to growth, while democracy may have a small negative effect.
