Iraq From War to a New Authoritarianism by Toby Dodge

Iraq From War to a New Authoritarianism by Toby Dodge

This Adelphi looks at the legacy of the 2003 Iraq intervention by the US, and subsequent state-building efforts. It analyses the evolution of the insurgency, the descent into full-scale civil war and the implementation of the surge as a counter-insurgency strategy.

"Toby Dodge is among our very best analysts of contemporary IraqHis canny insights are firmly grounded in history and on-the-ground field work. In a field where the starry-eyed and the conspiracy theorists have had a field day, Dodge is careful and conscientious about his evidence, and his conclusions both formidable and alarming." - Professor Juan Cole, University of Michigan, and author of the blog Informed Comment.
