Afghanistan's Uncertain Transition argues that Afghanistan is still far from stability. While the country has reestablished basic institutions of government, it has barely started to make them work. The government and its international supporters are challenged by a terrorist insurgency that has become more lethal and effective and that has bases in Pakistan, a drug trade that dominates the economy and corrupts the state, and pervasive poverty and insecurity. The Afghanistan Compact, approved in January 31, 2006, provides a road map for security, governance, and development over the next five years. The United States should take the lead in ensuring full funding and implementation of the Afghanistan Compact, and develop a coherent strategy toward the Afghanistan-Pakistan relationship. This strategy would entail pushing the Pakistani government to arrest Taliban leaders whose locations are provided by intelligence agencies and taking aggressive measures to close down the networks supporting suicide bombers.

This review is from: Afghanistan's Uncertain Transition from Turmoil to Normalcy (Csr) (Paperback)
As anticipated, this is a positive reference document. The writer's reputation will scare off critisicm. Not sure, I agree with all his analysis. Currency needs improving. But I bow to your academic status. Just finished a positive MA and a positive 7 months in Afghanistan. Talk to the TB. Regards MD.
