520 |a In this thoroughly researched and sharply intelligent analysis, Corinne Fowler is concerned with ‘understanding the cultural forces that have shaped British ideas about Afghanistan in the hope that the history of Anglo-Afghan contact will have a slightly reduced power to shape further misunderstandings’. Considering the context of Operation Enduring Freedom and the War on Terror, these misunderstandings have a pressing relevance. A major theme of the book is the legacy of this old colonialist tradition for late twentieth and early twenty-first century reporting, and the way in which essentialising images of Afghanistan are taken to ‘explain’ the unruly chaos and in which the civilizing forces of the west suppose are needed to save people who apparently have no clear agency of their own.
