I can’t say much about the veracity of her arguments, but there is a journalist named Sarah Chayes that has been investigating the US failures in Afghanistan as, primarily, a reflection of America supporting (and helping to build) a culture of corruption that undermined our primary nation building objectives in that country. She extends this argument to American political and business culture that shares these same qualities of corruption (that we conveniently label as something other than “corruption”).
