- Abstract:
The article offers a profile of Ashraf Ghani, President of Afghanistan. The author reflects on Ghani's concern with creating modernized social institutions and national security despite poverty and political violence from groups such as the Taliban. Emphasis is also given to topics such as Ghani's professional background as an anthropologist, his oversight of foreign aid under the administration of President Hamid Karzai, and his electoral victory over candidate Abdullah Abdullah.
