Publisher: Yale University Press
The Taliban's rise to power in Afghanistan following the fall of Kabul in 2021 has been a surprising development, with few Western commentators anticipating this outcome. However, after a twenty-year-long bitter war against the Republic of Afghanistan, reestablishing control is a complex and challenging task. In this groundbreaking new account, Hassan Abbas delves into the resurgent Taliban, examining the widening fractures between moderates and hardliners in power. The group faces a range of debilitating threats, including humanitarian crises and the Islamic State in Khorasan, while also engaging on the world stage, particularly with China and central Asian states. Abbas makes thoughtful use of sources and contacts in the region, providing profiles of key Taliban leaders. Return of the Taliban is an essential account of the movement as it develops and consolidates its grip on Afghanistan, offering valuable insights into the group's goals, strategies, and differences from its predecessors.
