Contents Introduction -- What is an "Afghan youth" anyway? -- Don't call it a party -- 2014 elections -- Transition -- Beyond transition.
Summary Afghan politics today are shifting in response to a growing youth population and an increasing number of young political leaders. Youth are critical to the future of the country, and what they think of the transition period since 2001 matters. Understanding their goals; how they network, organize, and mobilize; and their aspirations for the April 2014 presidential and provincial council elections reveal how they are looking to reshape the political culture. And perhaps the most significant single element in this equation is the relationship between today's youth and the old-guard political elite and provincial power brokers.
