Why has the US so dramatically failed in Afghanistan since 2001? Dominant explanations have ignored the bureaucratic divisions and personality conflicts inside the US state. This book rectifies this weakness in commentary on Afghanistan by exploring the significant role of these divisions in the US's difficulties in the country that meant the battle was virtually lost before it even began. The main objective of the book is to deepen readers' understanding of the impact of bureaucratic politics on nation-building in Afghanistan, focusing primarily on the Bush administration. It rejects the 'rational actor' model, according to which the US functions as a coherent, monolithic agent. Instead, internal divisions within the foreign policy bureaucracy are explored, to build up a picture of the internal tensions and contradictions that bedevilled US nation-building efforts.

Dieses Buch verfolgt zwei Ziele: Zunächst wird der theoretische Rahmen des Konzepts "Nation-Building" mit seinen Annahmen und den ihm inhärenten Schwierigkeiten analysiert. Darauffolgend wird seine praktische Umsetzung am Beispiel des Iraks untersucht. Durch die Auseinandersetzung mit diesen zwei Aspekten möchte der Autor einerseits zur Konzeptualisierung und Systematisierung des "Nation-Building" einen Beitrag leisten, andererseits wird durch die Erörterung der auftauchenden Probleme ein normatives Raster entwickelt, das einem erfolgreichen und damit entwicklungspolitisch effektiven "Nation-Building" dienen soll
