Summary / Abstract (Note) | In the border area between Pakistan and Afghanistan, a battle is being waged that could influence the future of the entire region. The Taliban is firmly entrenched, threatening security in the tribal areas and meting out Sharia-influenced justice. Pakistan's state writ is weak, and the Pakistani army is struggling to consolidate its zones of influence. Currently in the eye of the storm, the war in Pakistan is far from over. |
