Rule of law as institutional substrate — contract enforcement, judicial independence, equal treatment before the law. Upstream of most other axes.
Independence of the judiciary from executive and legislative encroachment. Specifically captures court-packing, selective prosecution, judicial reshuffles.
Twenty-point counter-terrorism policy framework adopted by the All-Parties Conference on 24 December 2014 following the 16 December 2014 Army Public School Peshawar attack. Provisions included: lifting the moratorium on executions for terrorism convictions; military courts under the 21st Constitutional Amendment (January 2015-January 2017; extended to January 2019); madrassa registration and reform; banned-organisation enforcement against sectarian and proscribed groups; FATA reform precursor measures; NACTA (National Counter Terrorism Authority) operationalisation. Institutional implications through military- court jurisdiction over civilians and accelerated-execution regime.
Per invariant 3, reforms are scored by what they did on each channel-separated axis, not by the party that enacted them. This fingerprint is how the policy-match engine finds historical analogues.
Explicit links are curated by the author. Inferred links are hypotheses in the library that test the same axes this policy moved — the framework's answer to "what does the data say about a policy like this?".
Ranked by axis-fingerprint overlap with this policy. Direction match bolded — those are the closest historical analogues. Shape of the match is what drives policy-outcome comparison, not the country or party label.
