This study examines how definitions may significantly affect strategy by focusing on the example of non-violent or low level violent actors in Afghanistan that are perceived as negatively affecting international peace and stability operations. The study outlines a number of dilemmas involved in developing these definitions and highlights how these play out on the ground. The study draws on a number of interviews with NGO workers, researchers, western government officials and NATO/ISAF troops.
