This article examines the rise and contemporary dynamics of the Taliban insurgency in the NWFP and FATA (Federally Administered Tribal Area) regions of Pakistan. It argues that the Taliban insurgency is not necessarily a product or reflective of Pushtun ethnonationalism. Instead, it is based on a particular interpretation of Islam, irrespective of ethnic or linguistic demarcations. U.S. and NATO military intervention along the Afghan-Pakistan border since 2001 has exacerbated the Taliban insurgency in Pakistan.

Mit diesem Buch legt der Autor die erste umfassende Untersuchung ueber Geschichte und aktuelle Formationen der Pashtunen beiderseits der Durand-Line vor. Die Arbeit zeigt auf, wie sich weite Teile der segmentaeren pashtunischen Gesellschaften im Verlauf einer mehrhundertjaehrigen wechselhaften Geschichte in ihrem Siedlungsgebiet, die modernen Staatsgrenzen Afghanistans und des heutigen Pakistans uebergreifend, gegen kolonisierende Durchdringung und Unterwerfung unter staatliche Herrschaft behaupten konnten. Ein wesentliches Erklaerungsmoment der Untersuchung ist die flexible, vielfach verschac

The creation of Pakistan was a crushing blow to those hoping to establish autonomous, ethnically defined states in the western borderlands of the Indian empire. The best known of these movements, the Red Shirts (Khudai Khidmatgar), was active in the North-West Frontier Province since the 1920s and moved from affiliation with the Indian National Congress to advocating sovereignty and ultimately an independent Pushtun state when faced with the inevitability of Partition.1 Similar Pushtun and Balochi movements arose in the last decades of the Raj in the areas that now constitute the Pakistani province of Balochistan. In the pivotal years of 1947 and 1948, the Muslim League was able to outmaneuver and suppress these ambitious young movements, but they did not die. In subsequent decades, Balochi and Pushtun nationalism became key elements in the political discourse and the equation of power in Balochistan, and they remain so today.
