Abstract
Afghanistan is a country with a long history and an ancient cultural history that suffers from deprivation in cultural, social, and economic dimensions. Its historical experience is politically intertwined with a long-standing dictatorship and far removed from the popular rule. The latest bitter experience of authoritarian rule is known as the domination of the Taliban ethnic sectarian system, but after the overthrow of the Taliban, a new trend emerged in which the slogans of popular participation, national sovereignty, and democratic government were its main features. According to the indicators and criteria of democracy, some signs of democracy can be seen in the system of Afghanistan; Holding general elections related to the principle of the system, drafting the constitution, presidential elections and parliamentary elections have been important steps in establishing national sovereignty in Afghanistan. The relative degree of political freedom and the existence of multiple political parties are other realized aspects of democracy in Afghanistan. Therefore the general weakness of social, cultural, economic, and educational conditions makes it difficult to establish a democratic system in Afghanistan. At the same time, persistent ethnic and political conflicts, a lack of expertise in parliament, and a lack of confidence in political stability, and a lack of comprehensive security, are Afghanistan's next problems. Serious public concern about the political independence of this country, the inefficiency of the parliament, lack of specialization of the MPs, lawlessness, brain drain, is a major threat to national sovereignty and political instability in Afghanistan. These issues, when considered in connection with the heavy and influential presence of Western countries, especially the USA, raise more ambiguity about the current and future political system of Afghanistan. Therefore, in this study, we examine the lack of professionalism of members of parliament and its impact on Afghanistan.
