Abstract/Index
Afghanistan: a country defined by its environment and its history. The Afghan landscape: the structuring role of geography. The weight of foreign influences. The difficult construction of the State and the nation: the power of sustainable driving forces on the establishment of political power. The turning point of the Soviet invasion and the civil war. The soviet imperial defeat of 1979-1989: a series of strategic errors. The Mujahedeen: from the soviet opposition to the civil war. Between a deteriorating environment and the hope of stability: the emergence of the Taliban. 2001 & the operation "enduring freedom": a success? The political elaboration of the strategy: legitimacy and justifications. The territorial declination of the American strategy and its outcomes. An essential strategic player with a double game: Pakistan. The US' strategy: from reconstruction to abandonment. A multi-dimensional investment to rebuild and stabilize. The US’ political will to leave and the rising of the Taliban phoenix. The American approach’s lack of consistency: popular sentiment and prospects.
