Volume 117 of Terrorism: Commentary on Security Documents, Al Qaeda, the Taliban, and Conflict in Afghanistan, includes recent documents relating to the conflict in Afghanistan against the Taliban and its foreign allies. The volume addresses components of the new approach of integrating political and military strategies to improve Western approaches in the region.

The second section focuses on documents issued by the United Nations: those describing the political side of the military conflict, the human rights situation, and the socio-economic dimension of international efforts. The third section portrays the European Union's role in Afghanistan. The final section includes an overview of recent political and military developments. This collection of documents provides a comprehensive documentary overview of strategies in Afghanistan as of early 2010.
