Explains the inside politics of what went on leading Canada up to involvement in this war. A fastinating account. ( ) Unexpected War: Canada in Kahdahar tells about Canada's role in Afghanistan: how we got there, how our role there has evolved, and how we may (or may not) get out when expected. More than that, though, this book is an examination of Canada's military and foreign policies. The discussion of how policy is made, the cultures and imperatives of the different parts of the bureaucracy (civilian and military), and of our political leaders, provides a rich context to help understand why Canada went to Afghanistan and why our soldiers are still there. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

With our troops now committed until 2011, The Unexpected War exposes the poverty of Canadian foreign policy, arguing that Canada's various military missions in Afghanistan have been ad hoc in nature and made on the basis of political calculations--often flawed--about Canadian-American relations. Drawing upon interviews with key decision-makers and advisors, and a first-hand account by a former Defense Ministry insider, the book offers a gripping account of how Canada became embroiled in a new kind of war--fighting insurgency in a failed state.
