Book synopsis

The war on terrorism in Afghanistan draws world policy leaders into questioning the avenue of future collaboration. Two actors play a key role both in rebuilding the war- and terror-torn country and restructuring the global conning bridge. The United States pursue to maintain its "single, shining principle: the cause of freedom," (U.S. President George H. W. Bush) which frames the idea of democracy, and to expand this tradition as a path to security. Germany, the global leader in economic exports, pursues to revive Afghan roots and to expand its global influence on the political stage, in the UN Security Council. Disagreeing with the American way of fighting against terror, Germany is maturing to a conscious, self-sovereign nation. The author shows how consistent and inconsistent German and U.S. policies are. He reveals how Germany's stunning, past commitments in Afganistan have been repeated, and what lessons have not been learned. An Afghanistan policy is to be the key to Central Asia.
