PATINO VILLA, Carlos Alberto. SEPTEMBER 2021: THE ISLAMIST TRIUMPH OF THE TALIBAN. anal.polit. [online]. 2022, vol.35, n.105, pp.272-292.  Epub 05-Maio-2023. ISSN 0121-4705.  https://doi.org/10.15446/anpol.v35n105.107759.

The success of the Taliban in Afghanistan, following the withdrawal of US troops, has resulted not only in remarkable changes in Afghan society but also in a radical shift in the geostrategic action of powers interest in Central Asia. Understanding the latest events of violence in Afghanistan implies going back to the origins of the Taliban phenomenon, the political alliances created before the Cold War, the presence of Al Qaeda, and the intervention of the United States after the attacks of 9/11, 2001. This chapter closes, for the moment, with the failed attempt of Western powers to transform a territory, characterized by inter-tribal struggles, systemic corruption, and the return to the power of the Taliban in a weak state but with significant international support, which supposes substantial changes in global geopolitics.

Palavras-chave : Afghanistan; Taliban; Pakistan; United States; geopolitics.
