Responsen omhandler sikkerhetssituasjonen i Uruzgan-provinsen,1 og har et særlig fokus på situasjonen for sivilbefolkningen. Det er lagt spesiell vekt på siste halvdel av 2016 og første kvartal av 2017. Sikkerhetssituasjonen i Afghanistan er flytende og uoversiktlig, og kan endre seg raskt. Det er utfordrende å skaffe pålitelig informasjon og sammenlignende datamateriale over tid. Dette gjelder både for områder der det er pågående kamper og hvor tilgangen til kilder og informasjon er liten, og for områder der det generelt foreligger lite informasjon på grunn av områdets begrensede relevans i en større politisk, sikkerhets- eller samfunnsmessig kontekst. Landinfo benytter informasjon fra et bredt spekter av kilder; fra internasjonale og nasjonale organisasjoner, til myndigheter og media. Samtidig er det Landinfos erfaring at ved dybdeanalyse av enkelte provinser og spesifikke tema, kan det være vanskelig å få et så bredt kildegrunnlag som ønskelig. Av sikkerhetsmessige hensyn, er enkelte kilder anonymisert. Begrenset kildetilfang

  • A PLACE for TOURISM in AFGHANISTAN's RECOVERY? Paul Clammer Friday Mosque at Heart the 1970S Marked the Heyday of Tourism In
    A PLACE FOR TOURISM IN AFGHANISTAN'S RECOVERY? Paul Clammer Friday Mosque at Heart The 1970s marked the heyday of tourism in Afghanistan. Over 90,000 tourists a year visited Afghanistan, one of the country's biggest foreign currency earners. The country was a popular destination in its own right, but also as a stop-off on the overland route to Kathmandu, when Chicken Street was a famous way station on the 'Hippy Trail'. With the country's reconstruction slowly under way, is it too soon to talk about tourists returning to Afghanistan? At first glance, many people working in Afghanistan might think the idea of promoting tourism here is eccentric at best. In April, Mirwais Sadiq Khan, the Minister for Tourism, was killed in fighting in the normally stable western city of Herat. A visit to the Afghan Tourist Organisation in Kabul generates more enthusiasm than any existing infrastructure for visitors, but there is also recognition that recent events have put Afghanistan back on the international map. Slowly, a few intrepid tourists are starting to return. Hinterland Travel, run by Geoff Hann who first visited Afghanistan in the 1970s has brought several groups since the fall of the Taliban. 'My last tours, although with relatively small numbers, opened up the eyes of our clients to a country of outstanding rugged beauty, and hospitable people,' he said. 'My impression was that we astonished local people that we were there at all but also encouraged them.' Is Afghanistan ready for such tour groups? Bamiyan was once the jewel in Afghanistan's tourist crown.

With continued urbanisation in Afghan cities occurring in the next few decades, there is a great opportunity to promote urban development that is sustainable, equitable and a catalyst for economic growth. The priorities of the National Unity Government of Afghanistan for the urban sector are very clear. The ‘Realizing Self-Reliance’ Framework presented at the London Conference on Afghanistan in 2014 explicitly stated cities are to be drivers of economic development. The Ministry of Urban Development Affairs (MUDA) is currently leading the drafting of an Urban National Priority Programme (U-NPP) and associated comprehensive urban development programme. Together these will lay the foundations for a sustainable urban future. However in Afghanistan, basic information for urban areas does not exist, is outdated, or not shared. As a result, MUDA has been challenged to pro-actively guide the growth of Afghanistan’s cities and harness urbanisation as a driver of development. This State of Afghan Cities 2014/15 report and associated dataset is already providing essential inputs to these ongoing processes. It will ensure the outcomes are pragmatic and reflect the ground realities across the country. I sincerely thank all programme partners, the Government of Australia, and UN-Habitat for supporting MUDA to implement this programme.

  • Warlords, the United States, and the State of Anarchy in Afghanistan
    Central European Journal of Politics Volume 7 (2021), Issue 1, pp. 46–75 ARTICLE Warlords, the United States, and the state of anarchy in Afghanistan AHMAD SHAH AZAMI*1 * Department of International Relations and European Studies, Faculty of Social Studies, Masaryk University in Brno, Czech Republic Abstract As part of its “War on Terror”, the United States (US) provided immense sums of money and advanced equipment to Afghan warlords in order to defeat and dismantle the Taliban and al-Qaeda in Afghanistan. Nearly two decades after the 2001 US-led intervention in Afghanistan that toppled the Taliban regime, the US continues supporting the warlords in various ways. As the intervention was also aimed at establishing a functioning state and reconstruction of the war-torn country, the US needed the support of local warlords to achieve its goals. However, over time, warlords and warlordism became a major challenge to the post- Taliban state-building project and in many ways undermined the overall security and the state monopoly on violence. These warlords, who had been mostly expelled and defeated by the Taliban regime, returned under the aegis of the B52 bombers, recaptured parts of the country and reestablished their fiefdoms with US support and resources. They not only resist giving up the power and prestige they have accumulated over the past few years, but also hamper the effort to improve governance and enact necessary reforms in the country. In addition, many of them run their private militias and have been accused of serious human rights abuses as well as drug trafficking, arms smuggling, illegal mining and extortion in the areas under their control or influence.

  • I an Ethnographic Investigation of Swara Among the Pashtun People of Jalalabad, Afghanistan
    i An Ethnographic Investigation of Swara among the Pashtun People of Jalalabad, Afghanistan: Exploring Swara as a Conflict Settlement Mechanism from the Perspective of Men By Masood Khan A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba in partial fulfillment of the requirements of the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Department of Anthropology University of Manitoba Winnipeg Copyright © 2016 by Masood Khan ii Abstract This thesis presents an ethnographic analysis of the practice of swara marriage among the Pashtun people of Jalalabad, Afghanistan, based on nine weeks of fieldwork in 2015. Swara is a form of compensation marriage practiced by Pashtun people in Pakistan and Afghanistan through which disputes between men are resolved through the giving away in marriage of girls, often minors, by guilty parties to victim parties. By employing practice theory and the theory of sacrifice, swara marriages are analyzed through the conceptualizations of honor, revenge, and ghairat (“bravery”). Focusing on six swara cases, the first half of the thesis explores the concepts of honor, revenge, and ghairat during the time of feuds. The second half of the thesis directly focuses on swara marriages and analyzes them through the concepts of symbolic capital and sacrifice. iii Acknowledgements Though only my name appears on the cover of this thesis, it is the product of efforts of many people. First and foremost, I would like to express my sincerest and deepest gratitude to my advisor, Dr. Ellen Judd. Her guidance and mentorship have been invaluable not only throughout this thesis project, but also over the past three years of my graduate program.
