Changing patterns, perceptions and politics of an Afghan community
ABSTRACED FROM EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Kuchis, as nomads are now usually referred to in Afghanistan, occupy a peculiar place among Afghan communities. They constitute, like many nomadic communities in other countries, a particularly disadvantaged group with respect to many social indicators such as access to education, health or livelihood standards.
