In Afghanistan's rich and often chaotic history, the period from 1973 to 1978 stands out as one of the most critical and transformative. Characterized by the demise of the monarchy and the birth of the first Republic, this era is characterized by initial relatively non-violent transition, followed by political unrest, societal evolution and eventual demise of the first Republic. Abdul Hamid Muhtat, an active figure in the military in the establishment of the first Republic under President Daud and an insider chronicler of the events, presents a narrative in "Second Collapse, First Republic" written in Persian language, that is deeply rooted in his personal experiences and of historical importance. Holding a brief portfolio as minister of tele-communications under president Daud's first Republic and subsequently forced to step aside, Muhtat explores the complex interplay of political dynamics, societal changes, and the challenging course taken by Afghanistan's first Republic.
