The Kurdish National Movement in Turkey

Zusatztext To the merit of the Kurdish National Movement in Turkey is its attempt to understand how subjectivation takes place and political actors give meaning to the world and themselves. In this sense! the book is a sharp and welcome turn away from analyses in which the PKK! or for that matter any political party! is treated as an expression of something else. The author is also among the first to have observed the articulation of Kurdish demands into a discourse of radical democracy and the profound importance of this for a development of the political struggle for self-determination and rights?Overall! The Kurdish National Movement in Turkey is a well thought out and welcome contribution to the study and understanding of identity politics and political struggle and a much needed textbook for students in Kurdish Studies." - Joost Jongerden!
