Olivier Roy, Geopolitis in Central Asia.
The Soviet withdrawal from Afghanistan and the weakening of Moscow's control on Soviet Central Asia imply a come back of the old centers of power of the sixteenth century : an Iranian state whose external influence is based more on Shiism than on the Persian sphere of cultural expansion, a mainly Sunni and Turkic center of power, embodied nowadays as in the sixteenth century by the Uzbeks, who are dreaming to lead a new Turkestan from Tashkent to northern Afghanistan, and Pakistan posing as the heir of the Moghol Empire, by trying to establish a Sunni Muslim belt from Lahore to Kabul. Between these three centers of power, Afghanistan, divided more on ethnic lines than on political ones, is in danger to collapse. Source : Éditeur (via Persée) |
