[RED DEMOCRATICA] Defining Success in Afghanistan, Russia's Invisible Civil War, and More

 

Dear Reader,

It's been nearly a decade since the United States invaded Afghanistan following the attacks on September 11, 2001. The war, now the longest in U.S. history, continues with many wondering how—or if—an acceptable and stable end is achievable. In the July/August issue of Foreign Affairs, experts Stephen Biddle, Fotini Christia, and J Alexander Thier argue that Afghanistan is not ungovernable, but that the U.S. must be more realistic about its expectations for creating a strong centralized state. Subscribe now for only $19.95 and your first issue will also include:

* Prisoners of the Caucasus by Charles King and Rajan Menon
Corrupt governance, high unemployment, and militant Islam threaten to tip Chechnya and its neighbors into civil war.

* Coping with China's Financial Power by Ken Miller
A survey of China's approach to international finance, including a forecast on how its domestic concerns will create a more market-oriented policy.

* Veiled Truths by Marc Lynch
A furious attack on Muslim intellectual Tariq Ramadan is at the heart of Paul Berman's new book on violent Islamism, The Flight of the Intellectuals.

* Castrocare in Crisis by Laurie Garrett
The Castro brothers have built a unique socialist vision of public health care. Will a potential lift of the embargo kill that vision?

The July/August issue also includes articles on Mexico's drug trade, a package on African governance in Kenya and Zimbabwe, and Walter Russell Mead's review of David Remnick's recent Obama biography.
