This article begins with the current situation of women in Afghanistan and their resistance against the complete takeover of power by the Taliban in August 2021. It reviews the ways in which prior Afghan governments, various imperialist occupations, wars between religious fundamentalist forces, sexism and prejudices within the Afghan Left and progressives have made it impossible to develop a coherent and persistent women's movement.
