Parvez Rana, Hassan Askari, Z.A. Zulfi, Pappu Samrat, Syed Noor, Babar Butt, and literally everyone else I met in the film industry were welcoming and hospitable beyond what I ever could have hoped or imagined. The cast and crew of Sharabi, in particular, went above and beyond to facilitate my research and make sure I was at all times comfortable and safe and had answers to whatever stupid questions I was asking that day! Along with their kindness, I was privileged to witness their industry, creativity, and perseverance, and I will be eternally inspired by and grateful to them. My committee might seem large at seven members, but all of them have been incredibly helpful and supportive throughout my time in graduate school, and each of them have helped develop different dimensions of this work.

  • Respons Afghanistan: Sikkerhetssituasjonen I Provinsen Uruzgan
    Respons Afghanistan: Sikkerhetssituasjonen i provinsen Uruzgan • Geografi, befolkning og konfliktkontekst • Konfliktdynamikk og konfliktnivå i provinsen • Sivile tap og skader som følge av konfliktrelatert vold • Internt fordrevne (IDPer) Innledning og kommentarer om kildegrunnlag Denne responsen er del av en serie notater og responser om sikkerhetssituasjonen i 15 ulike provinser i Afghanistan, som er under utarbeidelse av Landinfo høsten/vinteren 2016 og våren 2017 på oppdrag for Utlendingsdirektoratet (UDI). 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

My interest in Pakistan was first aroused when, as a child, I used to hear stories from my late father, an air force officer, about two Pakistan air force officers. In undivided India they had been his flight commanders in the Royal Indian Air Force. They and my father had fought in World War II together, flying Hurricanes and Spitfires over Burma and also after the war. Both these officers later went on to head the Pakistan Air Force.

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.

GLOBALIZING PAKISTANI IDENTITY ACROSS THE BORDER: THE POLITICS OF CROSSOVER STARDOM IN THE HINDI FILM INDUSTRY INTRODUCTION In 2010, Pakistani musician and actor Ali Zafar noted how “films and music are one of the greatest tools of bringing in peace and harmony between India and Pakistan. As both countries share a common passion – films and music can bridge the difference between the two.”1 In a more recent interview from May 2016, Zafar reflects on the unprecedented success of his career in India, celebrating his work in cinema as groundbreaking and forecasting a bright future for Indo-Pak collaborations in entertainment and culture.2 His optimism is signaled by a wish to reach an even larger global fan base, as he mentions his dream of working in Hollywood and joining other Indian émigré stars like Priyanka Chopra.
