Abstract
This study seeks to assess the impact of decentralization on subnational politics in Pakistan through the lens of public opinion. This quantitative study makes use of data from a national survey that was stratified by region, language, age, and gender. According to statistical analysis, decentralization has made a significant contribution to subnational politics in Pakistan. The study finds that the 18th constitutional amendment has advanced decentralization in Pakistan which has strengthened self-rule, improved subnational governance, and enhanced political participation among the masses in Pakistan. This decentralization has addressed issues related to identity politics and power-sharing as well. The results also indicate that decentralization and the related outcomes in the form of self-rule, governance, political participation, and identity politics have also pushed democratic and federal stability in Pakistan. Based on its findings, this paper contends that decentralization is the best solution for bringing democratic stability and good governance in Pakistan.
