2.2 The Position of the Researcher 
As indicated above, the researcher brings to the project his experience as a litigation 
lawyer. In terms of the credibility of the research and the validity of its conclusions, 
however, there is an important question about whether the researcher is adequately 
informed to do such an evaluation and apply the necessary standards of judgment.
An overview of the researcher's own academic and professional standing may be 
useful to give some background to illuminate the starting point for this section. 
The researcher is qualified as a lawyer in several international jurisdictions. He had 
an opportunity to study the political systems of different countries. His areas of 
expertise are in English constitutional law, the constitutional law of Pakistan, India 
and the USA. As a political scientist the researcher also has a command of US and 
Indo-Pak history. 
The researcher has also been a lecturer in constitutional law (of Pakistan and USA) 
and has a first-hand knowledge of all the constitutional events since 1992 and is 
something from which he has derived his hypothesis. It is this evolved belief that a 
state should adopt a political system that is best suited to its state structure, which 
he regards as a hypothesis of constitutional suitability. The development of his 
hypothesis and the driver for this project, are linked to the researcher’s personal 
values and beliefs in fairness and justice. That is, the project is strongly informed 
by his axiology.

Axiology is the philosophical study of theory of values.
11
Modern axiology is a 
companion to epistemology and metaphysics
12
and usually confines itself to 
problems such as common nature of values, status of values, scientific method of 
inquiry applicable to the value judgment and value proposition.
13
It is the researcher's hypothesis that the premature dissolution of governments in 
the history of Pakistan is directly linked to the consecutive adoption of several 
unsuitable political systems. To explore and analyse these assertions, the 
researcher has applied his axiology in exploring these legal concepts in the light of 
established jurisprudence and philosophy in Chapter 3. 
As is normally the case in a professional doctorate project, therefore, the 
researcher’s position as (to some extent) an insider to the topic becomes relevant.
