Imagining Afghanistan: The History and Politics of Imperial Knowledge
Manchanda, Nivi (Queen Mary University of London)
An innovative examination of knowledge production relating to Afghanistan in the imperial imagination. Focusing on representations of gender, state and tribes, Manchanda argues that the development of pervasive tropes in Western conceptions of Afghanistan have enabled both colonial and contemporary foreign intervention in the region.
