Abstract
The paper aims to identify the scope of the politics of ethno_x0002_nationalism in Balochistan and its impacts on good governance. Balochistan, which is enriched with mineral resources, has been neglected politically, socially and economically. In addition to this, the politics of ethno-nationalism in Balochistan has been under several political realignments and political engineering due to which Balochistan has failed to establish a strong national-wide political party that could bridge Balochistan with the rest of country. The paper aims to address the questions of what political motives has Balochistan been under political engineering since 1970s and how political realignments affected the politics of ethno-nationalism and good governance of Balochistan. The theory of power politics has been used to find out the political interests of hidden elements to lead the politics of Balochistan between the nationalist leadership and pro-establishment forces. Finally, political pace created political instability, socioeconomic insecurity and political vacuum which has remained unfulfilled until now.
