Dear all,

we're all going through difficult times right now. The pandemic poses many different challenges. The chair an we as lecturers will do everything to ensure that you can continue your studies in the summer semester 2020. The exercise on the Bundeswehr in Afghanistan will definitely take place. Only the format will be different. This means that you do not have to be present on site. I will provide the curriculum and reading via moodle. There we can also upload videos. Each of you will be required to give a video presentation of 10 to 15 minutes and also some short comments about the presentation of your fellow students (max. 1 page).

I look forward to seeing you and stay healthy!

Dr. Hans-Peter Kriemann, Lieutenant Colonel 

This course will explain how the German armed forces have failed to stabilize Afghanistan. Several approaches have been implemented by the Bundeswehr since 2001, depending on a set of aims that has been adapted several times, but success has been elusive. This course will identify these approaches and give reasons for their lack of success.
