Afghanistan: Reconstituting a Collapsed State

Wraps. Presumed first edition/first printing. viii, 22, [2] p. Endnotes. From an on-line posting: "The U.S. effort to reconstitute Afghanistan as a fully sovereign and functioning state is endangered by endemic warlordism more so than the low-level Taliban/al Qaeda insurgency. LTC Millen offers a shift in strategy that addresses the war of ideas, the counter narcotics initiative, and the incorporation of the Afghan National Army into the provincial reconstruction teams. As LTC Millen observes, all the resources are in place, they simply need a shift in focus. Lieutenant Colonel Raymond A. Millen graduated from the U.S. Military Academy in 1982, and has held a variety of command and staff assignments. He served in Kabul from July through November 2003 on the staff of the Office of Military Cooperation-Afghanistan, focusing on the Afghan National Army and the General staff. He served with Combined Security Transition Command-Afghanistan. Lieutenant Colonel Millen has published articles in a number of scholarly and professional journals. Lieutenant Colonel Millen is a graduate of the U.S. Army's Command and General Staff College, and holds an M.A. degree in National Security Studies from Georgetown University." Very good. Cover has slight wear and soiling. Artikel-Nr. 70583
