Afghan Women: Pawns in Political Power Struggles draws attention to a reality that is often overlooked in political debates: the lives of Afghan women at the intersection of international power politics. For decades, Afghanistan has been a stage for geopolitical interests, military interventions and ideological struggles. The consequences are borne, above all, by those whose voices are heard the least: women and girls.

This book analysis historical developments and personal perspectives, to show how political decisions - from international interventions to internal Afghan power shifts -directly shape the everyday lives of millions of women. Education, employment, freedom of movement and self-determination repeatedly become subjects of political strategy and ideological control. It reveals how deeply women's rights are bound up with global power structures, telling stories of courage, resistance and the relentless determination of many Afghan women to fight for dignity, education and a future. Readers are invited to look beyond simplified headlines and to critically reflect on the political decisions that affect the lives of millions. The book offers orientation in a complex political reality and serves as a reminder that behind every geopolitical strategy are real human lives. Anyone who seeks to understand Afghanistan must also listen to the stories of its women, take them seriously and consider them politically. That is where the urgency of this book lies.

Afghan Women: Pawns in Political Power Struggles will appeal to students, scholars and general readers interested in women's rights, foreign policy, femicide, international relations, human rights, and military intervention.
