How, despite the enormous investment of blood and treasure, has the
West's ten-year intervention left Afghanistan so lawless and
insecure? The answer is more insidious than any conspiracy, for it
begins with a profound lack of understanding of the rule of law,
the very thing that most dramatically separates Western societies
from the benighted ones in which they increasingly intervene. This
volume of essays argues that the rule of law is not a set of
institutions that can be exported lock, stock and barrel to lawless
lands, but a state of affairs under which ordinary people and
officials of the state itself feel it makes sense to act within the
law. Where such a state of affairs is absent, as in Afghanistan
today, brute force, not law, will continue to rule.
