Afghanistan Afganistan Human Rights Report Afghanistan Superstitions Afghanistan Religion Afghani Riddles ... Afghani Parables Afghan Culture Cultural Life In Afghanistan Afghanistan has a rich cultural heritage covering more than 5,000 years. Because of almost complete isolation from the outside world, however, little in art, literature, or architecture was produced between the 16th and early 20th centuries. Because most Afghans live outside the cities, their mode of living can be described as that of a peasant tribal society. Kinship is the basis of social life and determines the patriarchal character of the community. Religion plays a very important role. Archaeological research carried out since 1922 has uncovered many fine works of art of the pre-Islamic and Islamic periods. A revival of the traditional arts and an interest in new forms of expression have given a new dynamism to artistic creation. Of the new painters, some draw direct inspiration from the Herat school of the 15th-century Timurid period; others are influenced by Western styles. Through government initiative, some of the old monuments of architectural value are being restored and redecorated. The School of Fine Arts was established in Kabul in the 1930s. In architecture, the traditional Timurid techniques are preserved, particularly in the design of the exterior walls of mosques or tombs. Handicrafts include the world-renowned Afghan carpets and copper utensils.

The Taliban reduced newspapers to a bare minimum of staff and length, junked television, and drastically reduced radio broadcasting. Many broadcasters and journalists fled to neighboring countries, or further abroad, and many will not return.

Time.com People Fortune EW Afghanistan: Treasure chest of early Asian culture By Hope Ngo CNN.com writer (CNN) When Taleban leader Mullah Mohammad Omar ordered the destruction of statues that he says are "un-Islamic", he also turned his back on a culture that is unique because of its geography. For centuries, Afghanistan was a key stop on the legendary Silk Routes that linked east and west. Its mountainous terrain sheltered travelers whose caravans carried Chinese silks and Indian ivories. The Silk Route was also fertile ground for traveling Buddhist monks in search of converts. One historian notes: "In the early centuries of the Christian era, Eastern Afghanistan was full of lively Buddhist monasteries, stupas and monks." Islam was not introduced to the region until at least the ninth century. It was around the fourth or fifth centuries that monks are believed to have carved the Buddhas of Bamiyan. One of the statues stands at 58 meters, while the other is at 38 meters. The larger of the pair is considered the world's largest stone statue and the tallest image of the buddha.

Your browser does not support javascript Greek Efforts in Afghanistan "Speaking with Greece's Minister of Culture" March 19, 2002 Greece has long been involved in efforts to protect Afghanistan's cultural heritage. In the ultimately futile efforts to secure the national museum outside Kabul, Greece donated funds to increase security in 1993. There were plans in early 1996 for further work to safeguard museum with funds from Portugal, Cyprus, and a second Greek contribution (see " Museum under Siege ," April 20, 1998). In late September of that year, however, the Taliban took over the city. More recently, Greece was rebuffed in its offer to purchase objects from the museum when the Taliban ordered the destruction of non-Islamic antiquities (see " Destructive Frenzy in Afghanistan ," March 2, 2001, and " Cultural Terrorism ," May/June 2001). A double decadrachma (ca. 120 B.C.) of Amyntas, the king of Bactria, was one of six found in a hoard at Kunduz. The largest Greek coins ever minted (3.4 ounces), several were in the collection of Afghanistan's national museum. (Josephine Powell) Greek assistance to Afghanistan will continue according to Minister of Culture Evangelos Venizelos. "As you know we have special concern about the situation in Afghanistan because of the historical interconnection between Greece and Afghanistan," he said, refering to the fact that after conquering the region in 328 B.C., Alexander the Great establish the kingdom of Bactria and settled some of his soldiers there. "Because of that, we are very active in the team of countries working for the reconstruction of Kabul museum and the organization of an Afghan archaeological service. One of the most preeminent specialists about Afghan history and archaeology, Victor Sarianidis, is working with our own archaeological service on issues pertaining to Afghanistan. We have prepared, in cooperation with the Greek Foreign Ministry, the first archaeological mission to Afghanistan to assist not just financial but also with material aid under the auspices of UNESCO."

79. Afghanistan - WARFARE AND CIVIC CULTURE WARFARE AND CIVIC culture. afghanistan Table of Contents The SovietAfghanwar has caused grave injury to the civic culture of afghanistan. http://countrystudies.us/afghanistan/81.htm

WARFARE AND CIVIC CULTURE Afghanistan Table of Contents The Soviet-Afghan war has caused grave injury to the civic culture of Afghanistan. The destruction and disruption wrought by the magnitude of the lethal technology employed was exponentially greater than that of any previous invasion in the past. In addition to extensive ecological damage, including the vicious destruction of Kabul that dwarfs anything previously experienced, the war stretched taught the fabric of the society, threatening to undermine its confidence. National traits once honored hallmarks of Afghan character were jeopardized. Tolerance for others. Forthrightness. Aversion to fanatics. Respect for women. Loyalty to colleagues and classmates. Dislike for ostentation. Commitment to academic freedom. All were compromised. Two generations of children have grown up without knowing the joys of childhood, their lives concentrated instead on how to avoid death and deal with emotions associated with death. The war has left terrible scars on minds as well as bodies. These scars threaten to undermine the traditional social infrastructure which served for decades to dampen ethnic, religious, cultural and linguistic differences in this complex multicultural society. The deep apprehensions, amounting to fear among many, that prevail under Taliban rule despite an acknowledged improvement in security, have resulted in the breakdown of trust which makes the organization of cooperative community projects difficult. This compounds the fact that many Afghans who benefitted from largely free services while in exile developed complacent attitudes leading them to expect others to do for them what once they expected to do for themselves. Their vaunted self-reliance was thus eroded.
