Jinnah The Man and the Mystery | Ishtiaq Ahmed in conversation with TCA Raghavan

Ishtiaq Ahmed holds a Ph.D. in Political Science from Stockholm University. He is Professor Emeritus of Political Science at Stockholm University. He is an Honorary Senior Fellow at the Institute of South Asian Studies, the National University of Singapore where he worked as a Senior Research Professor. He has taught winter semesters at the Lahore University of Management Sciences and at Government College University Lahore. He has published several books with a special focus on the politics of South Asia discussed in the context of regional and international relations. His research on the partition of Punjab in 1947 won several national awards in Pakistan and his description of Pakistan as a garrison state is recognized as authoritative. His latest book is Jinnah: His Successes, Failures, and Role in History.

A major figure in the Partition saga, Mohammed Ali Jinnah has been celebrated as often as he has been reviled. This urbane gentleman’s transition into the Muslim communitarian and chief proponent of the two-nation theory is a story crisscrossed with multiple narratives and conclusions.
In this intense #JaipurLiteratureFestival2021 session, Ishtiaq Ahmed discusses his latest book ‘Jinnah: The Man and the Mystery’ while exploring this and many other conundrums with TCA Raghavan, formerly India's High Commissioner to Pakistan.
