Conclusion. 330 $aAn Introduction to Civil Wars takes an empirical and thematic approach to the study of civil wars. Since World War II, by far most of the wars that have been fought are civil wars--wars between groups within states, like Darfur, Somalia, Congo, Kosovo, and Chechnya--and not wars between sovereign states. The book is organized thematically to address major topics and findings on civil wars, including causes, duration, recurrence, termination, intervention, post-conflict problems, civilian victimization/terrorism, and resource-related issues. Cases at the end of chapters spotlight specific civil wars. 606 $aCivil war 606 $aConflict management 606 $aPeace-building 606 $aIntervention (International law) 615 0$aCivil war. 615 0$aConflict management. 615 0$aPeace-building. 615 0$aIntervention (International law) 676 $a303.6/4 700 $aDeRouen$b Karl R.$f1962-$0897824 801 0$bCaToSAGE 801 1$bCaToSAGE 801 2$bUtOrBLW 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910149361803321 996 $aAn introduction to civil wars$92537682 997 $aUNINA LEADER 04120nam 2200541ia 450 001 9910155254403321 005 20250204190702.0 010 $a9781137520388 010 $a1137520388 024 7 $a10.5040/9780755647132 035 $a(CKB)3710000000679383 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC4509878 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6407172 035 $a(OCoLC)1301504802 035 $a(UkLoBP)z00000208202 035 $a(Perlego)3026164 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000679383 100 $a20160926d2022 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aTaliban $ethe power of militant Islam in Afghanistan and beyond /$fAhmed Rashid 205 $aFourth edition. 210 1$aLondon :$cBloomsbury Publishing,$d2022. 215 $a1 online resource (314 pages) $cillustrations 311 08$a9781137520371 311 08$a113752037X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aPart 1: History of the Taliban Movement -- Chapter 1 Kandahar 1994: The Origins of the Taliban -- Chapter 2 Herat 1995: God's Invincible Soldiers -- Chapter 3 Kabul 1996: Commander of the Faithful -- Chapter 4 Mazar-e-Sharif 1997: Massacre in the North -- Chapter 5 Bamiyan 1998-99: The Never-Ending War -- Part 2: Islam and the Taliban -- Chapter 6 Challenging Islam: The New-Style Fundamentalism of the Taliban -- Chapter 7 Secret Society: The Taliban's Political and Military Organization -- Chapter 8 A Vanished Gender: Women, Children and Taliban Culture -- Chapter 9 High on Heroin: Drugs and the Taliban Economy -- Chapter 10 Global Jihad: The Arab-Afghans and Osama Bin Laden -- Part 3: The New Great Game -- Chapter 11 Dictators and Oil Barons: The Taliban and Central Asia, Russia, Turkey and Israel -- Chapter 12 Romancing the Taliban 1: The Battle for Pipelines 1994-96 -- Chapter 13 Romancing the Taliban 2: The Battle for Pipelines 1997-99 - The USA and the Taliban -- Chapter 14 Master or Victim: Pakistan's Afghan War -- Chapter 15 Shia Versus Sunni: Iran and Saudi Arabia -- Chapter 16 Conclusion: The Future of Afghanistan -- Chapter 17 The Taliban Resurgent 2000-2009. 330 $a"Following the U.S-Taliban peace deal of February 2020 - and the U.S's promised withdrawal from Afghanistan - the Taliban began terrorizing Afghan security forces, civilians and the government in Kabul. By August 2021, the group had seized control of the entire country. Taliban is a New York Times bestseller by the award-winning journalist Ahmed Rashid. Now considered a modern classic, the book provides rare insight into the history of the Taliban, their political movement, their leaders and their aims. This authoritative account is renowned for being able to explain one of the world's most extreme organizations from their inception in northern Pakistan in the early 1990s to their rise to power. In doing so, Rashid closely details their impact on Afghanistan, the Middle East and Central Asia, and how and why the Taliban spread, including their relationship with both Al-Qaeda and the U.S. The book has sold more than 1.5 million copies worldwide and has been translated into over 40 languages. This third edition marks twenty years since the U.S. invaded Afghanistan and the author adds a new introduction to reflect on how the group regained their strength, the humanitarian crisis, and what Taliban rule is likely to mean for the region and the world"--$cProvided by publisher. 606 $aPetroleum industry and trade$xPolitical aspects$zAsia, Central 606 $aIslam and politics$zAfghanistan 606 $aIslamic fundamentalism$zAfghanistan 607 $aAfghanistan$xPolitics and government$y20th century 615 0$aPetroleum industry and trade$xPolitical aspects 615 0$aIslam and politics 615 0$aIslamic fundamentalism 676 $a343.42078624 700 $aRashid$b Ahmed$0261699 801 0$bUkLoBP 801 1$bUkLoBP 801 2$bUkLoBP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155254403321 996 $aTaliban$91247336 997 $aUNINA
