Afghanistan: a place to test a theory?
Afghanistan has long been a "basket case" economy, with little of value to export (note how little is said about the natural gas production in the north) and I exclude heroin. In the early years of the Cold War there was competition between the USA and USSR in providing aid; for the road network and irrigation in Helmand Province for example. Has the economy really improved since the USSR's invasion? Let alone the latest Western intervention?
Not a good place to test an economic theory IMO.
