Description: Afghanistan and Pakistan : Conflict, Extremism, and Resistance to Modernity, Hardcover by Khan, Riaz Mohammad, ISBN 1421403846, ISBN-13 9781421403847, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Pakistani diplomat Khan (Foreign Secretary from 2005 to 2008, among other positions) presents a "broad-brush treatment" of events relating to Afghanistan and Pakistan from the withdrawal of Soviet troops from Afghanistan in 1989 to, essentially, 2009 (although some 2010 events were incorporated into the discussion following substantial completion). This "broad brush" treatment is supplemented by incorporating his own personal experiences, perspectives, and conclusions into the larger narrative, which focuses on issues related to the post-Soviet dynamics of the Afghan conflict, the fragmentation of Afghanistan under warlords, the accentuation of ethnic divisions, the rise of the Taliban, the US invasion and occupation, and the spilling over of the conflict into Pakistan.
