NEO-TALIBANISM AND ITS IMPACT ON CENTRAL ASIAN REGIONAL SECURITY

This research examines the shifting paradigm of security in Central Asia following the establishment of the “Taliban 2.0” government in 2021. It explores the theoretical transition from traditional Talibanism to Neo-Talibanism, characterized by advanced diplomatic strategies like “Twitter diplomacy” alongside a continued adherence to radical Deobandi doctrines. The study highlights how the resurgence of religious governance in Afghanistan serves as an ideological inspiration for extremist groups in neighboring states. Furthermore, it analyzes the persistent threats posed by international terrorist organizations, including ISIS-Khorasan and Al-Qaeda, which utilize Afghanistan as a base for recruitment and regional destabilization.
