Mapping Futures for Afghanistan offers a critical and forward-looking exploration of Afghanistan’s most pressing challenges and future possibilities. It examines the current crises posed by the Taliban’s return to power and the collapse of the Republic in August 2021 and maps a range of challenges and solutions that will shape the country’s long-term future.As the first volume of its kind to be entirely produced by scholars from Afghanistan, it critically engages with the dominant narratives and re-imagines the country’s path toward a just, pluralistic and democratic future. Featuring original contributions from leading experts, the volume critically examines Afghanistan’s political, economic, human rights, and geopolitical challenges - while exploring potential solutions. It foregrounds local knowledge and perspectives that are often excluded from mainstream policy and academic discourses. This timely collection will be of interest to a wide range of audiences, including policymakers, practitioners, scholars and students with an interest in Afghanistan and the broader processes and challenges of inclusive peacebuilding and conflict resolution in war-torn societies.

This book provides a compelling analysis of proxy warfare and its far-reaching implications for statehood, focusing on the conflict in Afghanistan. Introducing the innovative concept of 'state-wrecking', it bridges theory and practice to unravel how external support for insurgent actors fuels violence, undermines territorial control and sovereignty, intensifies violence, and dismantles political legitimacy. The work shifts the discourse on proxy wars from the strategies of global powers to the procedural and structural impacts within target states.Grounded in rigorous empirical research, including interviews, archival data, and conflict analysis, the book critically examines the Pakistan-Taliban nexus and the limitations of US-led interventions. By blending a robust theoretical framework with in-depth case studies, it reveals how proxy dynamics shape conflicts, disrupt governance, and challenge international security. This is an essential resource for those seeking to understand the entanglements of modern warfare and the fragility of states under external influence.
