A whole generation has grown up in Afghanistan knowing little but
the ravages of war. The dramatic overthrow of the Taliban regime in
2001 was simply one event in a series of interrelated struggles
which have blighted ordinary people's lives over the last three
decades, and which continue to interfere with reconciliation and
reconstruction. This new edition of The Afghanistan Wars provides a
meticulously-documented history of these successive waves of
conflict. From the roots of Afghanistan's slide into disorder in
the late 1970s to the challenges faced by Afghan leaders following
the substantial withdrawal of international forces in 2014, it
explores military and diplomatic history while also offering
valuable insight on humanitarian action, gender, medical and
cultural themes. Thoroughly revised in the light of the latest
research, the third edition also features a new final chapter which
examines recent developments in Afghanistan, bringing the story up
to the present day and mounting a strong case for continuing
support for this troubled country. New to this Edition: - A final
chapter on the recent developments in Afghanistan up to the present
day - Revised to take into account the considerable amount of new
material published on this topic since 2009 - Refreshed and updated
throughout
