Hezb-e-Islami’s Behavioral Complexities in Post-Taliban Afghanistan. An Organizational Approach

      Аннотация: This book focuses on the post-2001 behavioral complexities of Hezb-e-Islami Afghanistan, one of the main Jihadi Tanzims led by Gulbuddin Hekmatyar, referred to as HIG. It offers an organizational lens to understand why HIG while being an insurgency and military group opposed to the government, also participated in the electoral process, competing and contesting within the same state that it fights and deems illegitimate. It shows how the organizational structure of HIG produces contradictory behaviors, strategies and outcomes. It also explains why HIG splintered the most among its jihadi peer organizations.
