Nation and nationhood are complex concepts that include several aspects like geography, shared history and culture, ethnicity, language etc. This book 'From Taliban to Taliban: Contextualizing Nationhood in Afghanistan' examines how the concept of nationhood fits into Afghanistan as a society and as a political entity.
The experts contributing to this book have explored the concept of nationhood in Afghanistan from diverse perspectives which range from ethnic fault lines to the governance structure. As the book title suggests, Taliban appears as a central theme. However, Taliban here implies that the tendencies shown by the Taliban, like pursuing religious conservatism and extremism and ethnic supremacy to rule the country, have existed throughout the history of Afghanistan. Various rulers and political dispensations have positioned these as factors binding the nation.Niranjan Marjani is an independent political analyst and researcher based in Vadodara, India, specialising in International Relations and Geopolitics.
