[EAN: 9780190496647], Neubuch, [PU: Oxford University Press Inc, New York], Paperback. Afghanistan, a landlocked country in Central Asia, has improbably been at the center of international geopolitics for four decades. After the Soviet Union invaded in 1980, Afghanistan descended into an unending conflict that featured at various points most of the world's major powers. In the mid-1990s, the country entered a new phase, when the Taliban took power and imposed order based on a harsh, repressive version of Islamic law. Infamously, the sheltered Osamabin Laden, whose attack on 9/11 Towers ushered in the Global War on Terror, drew tens of thousands of American troops to the country, where they remain today.In Afghanistan: WhatEveryone Needs to Know, leading scholar Barnett R. Rubin provides an overview of this complicated nation. After providing a concise history of Afghanistan, he explores the various peoples and cultures of the country and its relations with neighbors like Pakistan and Iran. He also provides an authoritative overview of the conflicts that have plagued the country since the Soviet invasion. Both wide-ranging and pithy, this book explains why Afghanistan matters and what its possiblefuture might look like. In Afghanistan: What Everyone Needs to Know, Barnett Rubin, a leading scholar of Afghanistan and former advisor to both the UN and the US State Department, distills decades of research in a concise yet rich overview of this complicated nation.
