Afghanistan in the Post-Cold War Era
Rubin, Barnett R. (Director and Senior Fellow, Center on Global Affairs, Director and Senior Fellow, Center on Global Affairs, New York University)
The book begins by tracing how Afghanistan became the first major post-Cold War conflict, and how Islamic radicalism took hold there. The second part focuses on the transitional period between the fall of the Taliban in late 2001/early 2002 and the emergence of the Karzai government. The third part considers the wide variety of state building efforts in Afghanistan this past decade. The final part of the book starts with the present situation of intensified war andoffers some ideas for moving forward from a state of constant war to a more stable society with better governance. Combining a deep knowledge of recent Afghan history with unmatched expertise on the current crises there, this book will stand as an authoritative modern overview of this troublednation.
