Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First published in 1937, this book grew out of the author's belief that there needed to be a "drastic revision" of British policy on the North-West Frontier of India (now Khyber Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan) in order to achieve a lasting peace. The author examined the causes of continued hostility and non-military methods that might prevent further outbreaks of war – reducing or removing British troops and leaving the settlement of disputes to Indians. He traces the changing attitudes of Indians towards British rule and the increasing popularity of calls for independence while also detailing the wider Indian context. This book will be of interest to students of Indian and colonial history.

Download or read book British Governance Of The North-West Frontier (1919 To 1947): A Blueprint For Contemporary Afghanistan? written by Major Andrew M. Roe and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the conclusion of the Third Afghan War (1919) to India’s Independence (1947), Great Britain governed the wild, mountainous territory of the North-West Frontier that borders Afghanistan. This control used a variety of mature political and military structures to successfully administer the tribal areas. The challenges faced by the British in the North-West Frontier are comparable to current problems the coalition and North Atlantic Treaty Organization face in Afghanistan. Looking at British solutions to similar problems in the same geographical area, albeit from a different era, has clear utility. This thesis provides a historical overview of Colonial India, reviews the political and military structures employed in the North-West Frontier (1919 to 1947), and discusses the current warfighting and reconstruction challenges faced in Afghanistan. It also identifies the pertinent lessons learned from the British experience that are transferable to settling the conflict and furthering the national reconstruction of Afghanistan. The thesis concludes by combining the lessons learned into a coherent four-step plan for the reconstruction of Afghanistan.

This book was released on 2010-04-08 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pakistan is currently experiencing one of the most turbulent phases in its history; throughout its 62-year existence it has often been confronted with one serious crisis after another. The sources of this perpetual instability have been both internal and external in their nature. Parts of Islamabad, which was once considered to be one of the safest and most peaceful cities in the region, have the look of a war zone. Concrete barricades on roads and in front of houses have turned traffic into a nightmare and houses into mini fortresses. During the last year or so, terrorist tactics have significantly and visibly evolved from suicide bombings or car bombs to military-style raids and attacks on sensitive installations, as well as targeted attacks on security personnel by well-trained assassination teams. In the areas of the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATAs) along the border with Afghanistan, the so-called Tehrik-i-Taliban Pakistan continue to challenge the writ of the state and occasionally even assume complete control of certain areas before being pushed out by security forces. The ongoing operation in South Waziristan – ‘Rah-i-Nijaat’ – is the largest counter-insurgency operation ever launched by the Pakistani military. Nuclear security has assumed added significance for Pakistan in the prevailing environment. Firstly, there is the obvious need to ensure the security of nuclear installations against any act of sabotage or terrorism given the current domestic security situation, and Pakistan is mindful of its obligations in this regard. Pakistan remains a pivotal state in Southwest Asia, and its future will have a profound impact on the entire region. It is therefore imperative that all regional states, and especially Pakistan’s immediate neighbors, refrain from interfering in its affairs. They should either do whatever they can to help Pakistan overcome its problems or leave well alone. Given Pakistan’s historically close cultural, political, economic, and security relations with the Gulf states and other Muslim countries in the Middle East, Pakistan’s failure would have very serious repercussions for all these countries. Thus, Pakistan’s friends should not only wish it well but also assist in whatever way they can to ensure that it succeeds in its struggle.

Book excerpt: "At the age of sixteen Jack Ringer succeeded in joining the Coldstream Guards by claiming to be eighteen. Settling into a selfish routine of drinking, smoking and gambling, he soon became the battalion bookmaker! But the death of a colleague resulted in Jack's conversion to Christ and eventual work as a missionary (ably supported by his New Zealand born wife, Elma) amongst the staunchly Muslim Pathan tribes of the North West Frontier Province of Pakistan. This book recounts the challenges faced, and adventures experienced, in a lifetime of service to his fellow humans in what could on occasions be a distinctly inhospitable environment."--Dust jacket back.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The command and control of military operations is a difficult art. The Challenges of High Command explores British ideas of how this should be done and, with the guidance of some of Britain's leading military historians, looks at the practicalities of British experience in the First and Second World Wars. The contributors cast new light on themes as diverse as the trench warfare of the First World War, the conduct of the Gallipoli and Norway campaigns, and the command performance of Bomber Harris and Bill Slim. The Challenges of High Command concludes with a major review of how military operations should be conducted in the new political and technological conditions of today and includes an informal and frank commentary by General Sir Mike Jackson on his experience in Bosnia and Kosovo.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the start of the U.S. war in Afghanistan in 2001 to the withdrawal of U.S. troops in 2014, Pakistan's military cooperation was critical to the United States. Yet Pakistani politics remain a source of anxiety for American policymakers. Despite some progress toward democratic consolidation over the last ten years, Pakistan's military still asserts power over the country's elected government. Pakistan's western regions remain largely ungoverned and home to the last remnants of al-Qaeda's original leadership as well as multiple militant groups that have declared war on the Pakistani state. The country's economy is in shambles, and continuing tensions with India endanger efforts to bring a durable peace to a region haunted by the distant threat of nuclear war. Pakistan's Enduring Challenges surveys the political and economic landscape of Pakistan in the wake of U.S. military withdrawal. Experts in the domestic and international affairs of the region consider the country's prospects from a variety of angles, including security issues and nuclear posture, relations with Afghanistan, India, and the United States, Pakistan's Islamist movements, and the CIA's use of drone warfare in Pakistan's tribal areas. This timely volume offers a concise, accessible, and expert guide to the currents that will shape the country's future. Contributors: Christopher Clary, C. Christine Fair, Daveed Gartenstein-Ross, Karl Kaltenthaler, Feisal Khan, William J. Miller, Aparna Pande, Paul Staniland, Stephen Tankel, Tara Vassefi, Sarah J. Watson, Joshua T. White, Huma Yusef.

Download or read book The Indian Army, 1939–47 written by Patrick Rose and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-03 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sheer size and influence of the British Indian Army, and its major role in the Allied War effort between 1939 and 1945 on behalf of a country from which it was seeking independence, maintains its fascination as a subject for a wide variety of historians. This volume presents a range of papers examining the Indian Army experience from the outbreak of world war in 1939 to the partition of India in 1947. With contributions from many of those at the forefront of the study of the Indian Army and Commonwealth history, the book focuses upon a period of Indian Army history not well covered by modern scholarship. As such it makes a substantial contribution across a range of subject areas, presenting a compendium of chapters examining Indian Army participation in the Second World War from North Africa to Burma, plus a variety of other topics including the evolution of wartime training, frontier operations, Churchill and the Indian Army, the Army's role in the development of post-war British counterinsurgency practice, and of particular note, several chapters examining aspects of the partition in 1947. As such, the book offers a fascinating insight into one of the most important yet least understood military forces of the twentieth century. It will be of interest not only to those seeking a fuller understanding of past campaigns, but also to those wishing to better understand the development and ethos of the present day military forces of the Indian subcontinent.
