  3. A few months ago, one of the things I had to learn for exam was feral children. I was fascinated with it. I wanted to read as much as possible about it, and I especially enjoyed reading about research which psychologists did. Also, I have watched some movies with that topic. A few days ago, I choosed “feral child” as topic for my presentation. Professor asked me am I sure I want that. Yes, I am. He told me nobody chose that for the last two generations of college because it’s not interesting. Oh, professor, just give me that topic and don’t worry. My happiness is endless.

    No, I am not. The only thing that binds me to the Indian subcontinent is this blog :)

    A Village

    Afghanistan has been called the land of 30,000 villages. What is remarkable is that every one of them is unique. The dramatic variations in power, ethnic, tribal, religious, and family dynamics from one village to the next are what make the country both endlessly fascinating and vexing to foreigners attempting to intervene here. It is why no strategy, whether military or political, can be applied uniformly, with success, on a national scale: why the effectiveness of foreign intervention — whether by militaries or civilian aid and development groups — can differ so markedly from one area to the next. Eleven years into the war, NATO’s best and brightest are still struggling to understand the myriad complex forces influencing stability and its collapse on the village level. Why do some communities embrace the Taliban, while other rise against them? Why do some welcome the government, while others eschew it? “A Village” explores several sides of one of these 30,000 self-contained worlds that together make up Afghanistan.
