The Afghan conflict has the most serious ramifications for Indian, South Asian and Central Asian security. There is a dismal dearth of objective literature and analytical studies of the Afghan war in India. This analytical work on the Afghan war seeks to fill this gaping void. It seeks to carry out a detailed military appraisal of the world’s first faultline war and study it from an Indocentric standpoint. Afghanistan was a rentier state. Its collapse has serious implications for the rentier states of the Middle East. It could serve not only as a mirror for the Middle East but as horrific model of collapse.
