Book excerpt: "The report, "Pakistan Coercion, UN Complicity: The Mass Forced Return of Afghan Refugees," documents Pakistan's abuses and the role of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) in promoting the exodus. Through enhancing its "voluntary repatriation" program and failing to publicly call for an end to coercive practices, the UN agency has become complicit in Pakistan's mass refugee abuse. The UN and international donors should press Pakistan to end the abuses, protect the remaining 1.1 million Afghan refugees in Pakistan, and allow refugees among the other estimated 750,000 unregistered Afghans there to seek protection, Human Rights Watch said"--Publisher's description.
Download or read book Peace Through Health written by Neil Arya and published by Kumarian Press. This book was released on 2008 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We typically define and talk about wars using the language of politics, but what happens when you bring in a doctor’s perspective on conflict? Can war be diagnosed like an illness? Can health professionals participate in its mitigation and prevention? The contributors to Peace through Health: How Health Professionals Can Work for a Less Violent World engage with these ground-breaking ideas and describe tools that can further peace once war is understood as a public health problem. The idea of working for peace through the health sector has sparked many innovative programs, described here by over 30 experts familiar with the theory and practice of Peace through Health. They cover topics such as prevention and therapy, program evaluations, medical ethics, activism, medical journals, human rights, and the uses of epidemiology. Those considering careers in medicine and other health and humanitarian disciplines as well as those concerned about the growing presence of militarized violence in the world will value the book’s many insights Other Contributors: Will Boyce, Caecilie Buhmann, Anne BundeBirouste, Kenneth Bush, Helen Caldicott, Rob Chase, Khagendra Dahal, Hamit Dardagan, Ann Duggan, Lowell Ewert, Paul Farmer, Norbert Goldfield, Paula Gutlove, Katherine Kaufer Christoffel, Maria Kett, John Last, Barry S.

Book Synopsis China and Afghanistan by : Huasheng Zhao
Download or read book China and Afghanistan written by Huasheng Zhao and published by CSIS Reports. This book was released on 2012-03-26 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Because China is principally interested in preventing the destabilization of Xinjiang Province, it has broadly deferred to the United States and its Western allies who are leading military efforts, political reconciliation, and economic reconstruction in Afghanistan. Author Zhao Huasheng writes that China's interests in Afghanistan are more limited than those of the United States, and Beijing has no interest in playing a subordinate role "under the dominance of the West" either. Basically China wants the security threat contained, but is not prepared to contribute to the military effort, including opening a transit corridor on its territory. China is prepared to participate in Afghanistan's economic reconstruction, especially when it advances Chinese foreign economic interests.

(Oxford Concise Medical Dictionary 1996, 97) Let us begin by stating the obvious. Acts of organized violence are not necessarily of human nature, but they are endogenous events arising within the an intrinsic part evolution of complex systems of social interaction. To be sure, all wars have features in common - people are killed and property is destroyed - but in their origin wars are likely to be at least as different as the social structures from which they arise. Consequently, it is unlikely that there can be a simple theory of the causes of war or the maintenance of peace. The fact that wars are historical events need not discourage us. On the contrary, we should focus our understanding of the dimensions of each conflict, or classes of conflict, on the conjuncture of causes at hand. It follows that the study of conflict must be an interdisciplinary one. It is or a penchant for eclecticism that leads to that conclusion, but the not humility multi-dimensionality of war itself.

Download or read book The Cries and Appeals of Afghan written by Engineer Fazel Ahmed Afghan MSc and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-10-23 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the so-called April 1978 revolution, the killing of President N. M. Taraki by H. Amin and president H. Amin by Russians, and the unjustified open invasion of the Russians in Afghanistan, in 1979, installing Babrak Karmal and Dr. Najib one after the other as their poppets during ten years of atrocities and destruction of Afghanistan, forcing millions of people to leave their motherland to live in Pakistan, Iran, and other parts of the world and more than two million Afghans and 15000 Russians lost their lives the the Russian mission ended and left Afghanistan, via Hairatan, on February 15, 1989, Where president Babrak Karmel was living helplessly in an old container, in deprivation regretting and admitting to a foreign journalist that "relying on foreign powers is a big mistake." Later when he seriously got sick was hospitalized in Russia until he lost his last breath then his body was brought back and buried in honour by family and devoted followers in Hairatan, and then in1996, before the Taliban took over the power in Kabul from another traitor such as president Burhanuddin Rabani, disrespectfully blew up his grave. When they took over, Kabul executed president Dr. Najeebullah and his brother with no respect for human rights. Later two days before the tragedy of September 11, Ahmed Shah Masoud was also mysteriously assassinated in Khwaja Bahawadin, Afghanistan. The irony was after the withdrawal of Soviet troops. Unfortunately, the so-called Mujahideen, Taliban, and the defenders of democracy, such as president Hamed Karzai and President Dr. Mohammad Ashraf Ghani, the last planned victim of the USA, Britain, Saudi Arabia and Pakistan leaders, didn't learn the lesson from the history. They also became the stooge of foreign powers and did the same things Russia and her puppets had done to our beloved motherland. As a result, the country we are proud of returned to the stone age and lost everything we achieved in the last twenty years. Yes, those bloodsuckers once again did it; I meant on August 15, 2021, they returned the same Taliban from Pakistan who were kicked out as terrorists from Afghanistan in October 2001; shame on them. Thus with my last letter on 21/02/2021, expressing my appeals and warning to the concerned organizations this book is the "END" of the cries and appeals of Engineer Fazel Ahmed Afghan to the world leaders and organizations, started 37 years ago, "BUT NOT ENDED" up to his last breath, on the contrary, will get louder and more vital for unity, peace, justice, and equal rights. Democracy, freedom, and national and territorial sovereignty of his beloved motherland Afghanistan. We should understand that only I and all Afghans can't achieve our Sacred goal because, since the defeat of Communism, the enemies of Islam created a new phenomenon of Islam-o-Phobia to create hatred of Islam throughout the world. Afghanistan is one of the Islamic countries in the south Asian region with lots of underground wealth and a strategic position. Therefore, for all Afghans and Muslim nations, in particular, the Islamic scholars, is necessary to wake up and redefine Islam with a new vision of the social, economic, and political structure of the world as well as the development of new technology and the making of sophisticated arms in the world which were not available 1400 years ago. I understand, and by heart, I believe that the Holy Quran is the last Holly book, adaptable and flexible in all situations up to the end of the world. Therefore, it is the job of all Muslim scholars to wake up and think scholarly with open eyes to define Islam according to the true definition of Sharia, especially respecting other religions and the equal rights between men and women in all aspects of life, given the situation in the 21st century and after. Therefore, the Islamic Conference needs to give a universal adaptable definition and guideline of Islam in vital issues to the United Nations that all Muslim countries should act the same. Furthermore, the Muslim scholars, along with the other non-Muslim scholars, should establish a definition for terrorism, terrorist and the act of terrorism on the surface of the earth and the air. That also should be submitted to the United Nations and be adopted universally. If these two things are adopted, Islam-o-Phobia globally will be stopped. Then, hopefully, peace will prevail globally, especially in Afghanistan and all Muslim countries. Therefore, I seek God’s help to achieve our sacred goals to see peace in the world and an independent, peaceful and prosperous Afghanistan in my life.

Book Synopsis US Nation-Building in Afghanistan by : Conor Keane
Download or read book US Nation-Building in Afghanistan written by Conor Keane and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why has the US so dramatically failed in Afghanistan since 2001? Dominant explanations have ignored the bureaucratic divisions and personality conflicts inside the US state. This book rectifies this weakness in commentary on Afghanistan by exploring the significant role of these divisions in the US’s difficulties in the country that meant the battle was virtually lost before it even began. The main objective of the book is to deepen readers understanding of the impact of bureaucratic politics on nation-building in Afghanistan, focusing primarily on the Bush Administration. It rejects the ’rational actor’ model, according to which the US functions as a coherent, monolithic agent. Instead, internal divisions within the foreign policy bureaucracy are explored, to build up a picture of the internal tensions and contradictions that bedevilled US nation-building efforts. The book also contributes to the vexed issue of whether or not the US should engage in nation-building at all, and if so under what conditions.
Book Synopsis The Afghanistan Papers by : Craig Whitlock
Download or read book The Afghanistan Papers written by Craig Whitlock and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-08-30 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Washington Post Best Book of 2021 The #1 New York Times bestselling investigative story of how three successive presidents and their military commanders deceived the public year after year about America’s longest war, foreshadowing the Taliban’s recapture of Afghanistan, by Washington Post reporter and three-time Pulitzer Prize finalist Craig Whitlock. Unlike the wars in Vietnam and Iraq, the US invasion of Afghanistan in 2001 had near-unanimous public support. At first, the goals were straightforward and clear: defeat al-Qaeda and prevent a repeat of 9/11. Yet soon after the United States and its allies removed the Taliban from power, the mission veered off course and US officials lost sight of their original objectives. Distracted by the war in Iraq, the US military become mired in an unwinnable guerrilla conflict in a country it did not understand. But no president wanted to admit failure, especially in a war that began as a just cause. Instead, the Bush, Obama, and Trump administrations sent more and more troops to Afghanistan and repeatedly said they were making progress, even though they knew there was no realistic prospect for an outright victory. Just as the Pentagon Papers changed the public’s understanding of Vietnam, The Afghanistan Papers contains “fast-paced and vivid” (The New York Times Book Review) revelation after revelation from people who played a direct role in the war from leaders in the White House and the Pentagon to soldiers and aid workers on the front lines. In unvarnished language, they admit that the US government’s strategies were a mess, that the nation-building project was a colossal failure, and that drugs and corruption gained a stranglehold over their allies in the Afghan government. All told, the account is based on interviews with more than 1,000 people who knew that the US government was presenting a distorted, and sometimes entirely fabricated, version of the facts on the ground. Documents unearthed by The Washington Post reveal that President Bush didn’t know the name of his Afghanistan war commander—and didn’t want to meet with him. Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld admitted that he had “no visibility into who the bad guys are.” His successor, Robert Gates, said: “We didn’t know jack shit about al-Qaeda.” The Afghanistan Papers is a “searing indictment of the deceit, blunders, and hubris of senior military and civilian officials” (Tom Bowman, NRP Pentagon Correspondent) that will supercharge a long-overdue reckoning over what went wrong and forever change the way the conflict is remembered.
Download or read book Afghan Modern written by Robert D. Crews and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2015-09-14 with total page 392 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rugged, remote, riven by tribal rivalries and religious violence, Afghanistan seems to many a country frozen in time and forsaken by the world. Afghan Modern presents a bold challenge to these misperceptions, revealing how Afghans, over the course of their history, have engaged and connected with a wider world and come to share in our modern globalized age. Always a mobile people, Afghan travelers, traders, pilgrims, scholars, and artists have ventured abroad for centuries, their cosmopolitan sensibilities providing a compass for navigating a constantly changing world. Robert Crews traces the roots of Afghan globalism to the early modern period, when, as the subjects of sprawling empires, the residents of Kabul, Kandahar, and other urban centers forged linkages with far-flung imperial centers throughout the Middle East and Asia. Focusing on the emergence of an Afghan state out of this imperial milieu, he shows how Afghan nation-making was part of a series of global processes, refuting the usual portrayal of Afghans as pawns in the “Great Game” of European powers and of Afghanistan as a “hermit kingdom.” In the twentieth century, the pace of Afghan interaction with the rest of the world dramatically increased, and many Afghan men and women came to see themselves at the center of ideological struggles that spanned the globe. Through revolution, war, and foreign occupations, Afghanistan became even more enmeshed in the global circulation of modern politics, occupying a pivotal position in the Cold War and the tumultuous decades that followed.
