The Afghanistan Analyst Bibliography Introduction
This bibliography is intended to be an up-to-date resource for studying and researchingcontemporary Afghanistan. The vast majority of sources included are from after the late1970s, except for in the bibliography section on ethnic groups and, to a lesser extent, onIslam. I did not specifically compile sources on linguistics, art, literature, pre-/mid-20
th
 Century history or on the natural sciences (unless applied to resource management), andthe sources on the Soviet-Afghan war are limited. You should be able to find sourcessuch as these in some of the various standard Afghanistan bibliographies that have beenpublished in book form. However, these bibliographies are usually poor in regards tomore recent sources.With very few exceptions this bibliography will remained confined to sources publishedin European languages.This bibliography will be updated approximately every six months to include newlypublished sources plus older sources that were inadvertently omitted. Check the websitefor new editions. If you would like to suggest a book or other source for inclusion,preferably from an academic journal or well-established research institute, please sendyour suggestion tocontact@afghanistan-analyst.org Christian BleuerCanberra, Australia.
