Abstract
Economic relations are frequently also political relations, especially between countries. Trade and flag are not entirely unlike chicken and egg in that their mutual causality is often inextricable. Hence, in examining the economic relations between Pakistan1 and the socialist countries,2 this paper begins by outlining the political relations which constituted the framework for the former. Section II examines the development and nature of trade between Pakistan and the socialist countries. Section III focuses on aid.
The views expressed in this paper are entirely personal and should not be taken to reflect, in any way, those of any institution or organisation with which the author may be associated.
