This article argues that the USA and its Western allies have misused ‘Just War’ narratives to legitimise an external intervention in Afghanistan and their use of force during the War on Terror. It explores the extent to which such external interventions, military strategies, narratives and justifications by the USA may have contributed to state failure in Afghanistan. As the legitimacy of earlier external interventions is called into question, while the road ahead for Afghanistan remains precarious, thinking about a new paradigm of post-war reconstruction becomes important for the country and its people in years to come.

美国对阿富汗的干预:为不合理的事情辩护?

本文认为,美国及其西方盟国滥用“正义战争”的说法,使外部干预阿富汗及其在反恐战争期间使用武力合法化。它探讨了美国的此类外部干预、军事战略、叙述和理由可能在多大程度上导致阿富汗的国家失败。由于早期外部干预的合法性受到质疑,而阿富汗未来的道路仍然岌岌可危,思考战后重建的新范式对于该国及其人民在未来几年变得重要。
