Description : Afghanistan traces the historic struggles and the changing nature of political authority in this volatile region of the world, from the Mughal Empire in the sixteenth century to the Taliban resurgence today.

He shows how governing these peoples was relatively easy when power was concentrated in a small dynastic elite
