The document which I read is an article from newspaper The Guardian, dated on February 4th 2011, it is entitled “Afghan women fear for the future”. This article deals with the condition of women in Afghanistan, today.
Historically, Afghan women have always been marginalised and accorded subordinate status. The position of women in the family and society has been shaped by many factors and there are strong cultural and historical roots of gender discrimination. Afghanistan is a multi-ethnic and traditional society that has been governed along tribal lines and by a weak central state. In addition, the long years of war and violence in the country, and the resulting unstable political, have had a particularly severe impact on women. During the rule of the Taliban women were treated worse than in any other time. They were forbidden to work, leave the house without a male escort, or seek medical help from a male doctor, and they were forced to cover themselves from head to toe, even covering their eyes. Women who were doctors and teachers were forced to leave their work and sit at home, and girls were forbidden to go to school as a result of the prevalent ultraconservative policies of that period.
Life for many Afghan women improved dramatically with the fall of the Taliban. When the allies invaded in 2001 and the Taliban were toppled. They started work and sent their daughter to school. But her new-found freedom and that of many Afghan women could be at risk if the allies pull out from Afghanistan without insisting on guarantees for women's rights. The Afghan government created a peace council to pursue talks with the Taliban. Many areas are still controlled by the Taliban. The Taliban continue to reject the constitution. The Taliban are not the only group in Afghanistan keen to destroy women's rights. But Afghan women have many men who are scared of women having power. These are many powerful authorities sitting in key government positions. Campaigners say the only hope for women is to give them a chance to fight for their rights. The pressure for this must come from abroad. the only hope is for women to fight for themselves.
I loved a lot this article because it deals with the condition of the women in west, being a woman I feel concerned by this problem which gets all women of whole world. The way the women are handled in Afghanistan lets show through the vision of the women in the world. The difference between men and women countered less important in west than in east however this difference exists even nowadays. This article allows to raise the problems of the women in our current society.
