Pakistan, Regional Security and Conflict Resolution: The Pashtun Tribal Areas: summary, description and annotation
We offer to read an annotation, description, summary or preface (depends on what the author of the book "Pakistan, Regional Security and Conflict Resolution: The Pashtun Tribal Areas" wrote himself). If you haven't found the necessary information about the book — write in the comments, we will try to find it.
This book explains how colonial legacies and the postcolonial state of Pakistan negatively influenced the socio-political and cultural dynamics and the security situation in Pakistans Pashtun tribal areas, formerly known as the Federally Administered Tribal Areas (FATA). It offers a local perspective on peace and conflict resolution in Pakistans Pashtun tribal region.Discussing the history and background of the former-FATA region, the role of Pashtun conflict resolution mechanism of Jirga, and the persistence of colonial-era Frontier Crimes Regulations (FCR) in the region, the author argues that the persistence of colonial legacies in the Pashtun tribal areas, especially the FCR, coupled with the overarching influence of the military on security policy has negatively impacted the security situation in the region. By focusing on the Jirga and Jirga-based Lashkars (or Pashtun militias), the book demonstrates how Pashtuns have engaged in their own initiatives to handle the rise of militancy in their region. Moreover, the book contends that, even after the introduction of constitutional reforms and FATAs merger with the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province, little has changed in the region, especially regarding the treatment of tribal Pashtuns as equal citizens of Pakistan. This book explains, in detail, why indigenous methods of peace and conflict resolution, such as the Jirga, could play some role towards long-term peace in the South Asian region.Historically and contextually informed with a focus on North-West Pakistan, this book will be of interest to academics researching South Asian Studies, International Relations, Peace and Conflict Studies, terrorism, and traditional justice and restorative forms of peace-making.

This book is dedicated to my father Yousaf Jamal, my mother Khalida Yousaf, my wife Lacey Andrews and my brother Omer Yousaf. Without my familys sacrifices, I would not have had the opportunity to pursue my ambitions and gain higher education from Germany and Australia. And without Lacey, I am absolutely certain that my journey of successfully completing my PhD and this book would have been a lot harder.
I would also like to dedicate this book to my mentor Mr Imtiaz Gul, who taught me how to write and laid the foundation for my interest in Political Science and IR.
Finally, I would like to dedicate this book to my late maternal grandfather Mr Khaista Gul, who equally loved, looked after and supported all his grandchildren. My only regret after completing my PhD was not sharing that moment of success with him!

I would like to first thank and acknowledge the University of Newcastle (UON) for offering me a PhD scholarship. Without the UONs scholarship, I would neither have pursued my PhD nor would I have written this book. Second, I would like to thank both my supervisors, Dr Tod Moore and Dr John Tate. Dr Moore, who supervised me for most of my PhD, played a major part in my PhD journey and provided me with all the guidance I required. Dr Tate, who came on board during the second half of my PhD, also played a major part in the overall framing of my thesis. Most of this book and how it is structured is informed by Dr Tates input and feedback. Even after I finished my PhD, Dr Tate was always there to help and provide feedback on my works and applications. Hence, I am greatly indebted to both my supervisors, especially Dr Tate, who has always supported me in all my post-PhD endeavors.
