| Summary/Abstract |
T E Lawrence is often indicated as a model of successful interaction between Western armies and tribally organised societies - the inspiration behind the training of the AfPak Hands. But the Lawrence myth, argues Brock Millman, is a misleading one, and his contemporary, Sir Arthur Lawrance, is a better model. What is needed in countries like Afghanistan is a system of trained professionals on the blueprint of the British Colonial Service - an elite of specially selected civilian administrators with local authority.
