Abstract: This paper examines the impact of political conditions on female labour force participation in case of Pakistan. The study covers the period of 1980-2010. We found the existence of cointegration between the variables. Democracy and government spending lowers labour female labour participation. Development spending increases female labour participation. This study opens up new insights for policy makers in Pakistan.
