| Note de contenu : |
The international news we hear is often about conflicts, strife, and violence in hotspots around the globe. Many conflicts pit people of one ethnic or religious group against those of another. People fight over power, territory, control, and money. But many conflicts are deeply rooted in the past.
Each title in the World in Conflict series examines one conflict, in detail, providing readers with the background information necessary to understand how each conflict started in the first place and how it has escalated to become headline news. The book’s final chapter discusses attempts to achieve peace on both international and grassroots levels.
In Kurdistan: Region under Siege, readers will learn about the conflict that pits the Kurds against the governments of Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria. For centuries, the Kurdish people have occupied the mountainous region where these Middle Eastern countries meet. Because Kurdistan has been an area of great strategic and economic importance for these countries, the Kurds have suffered persecution and have repeatedly been rebuffed in their efforts to control their political and cultural destiny.
The Kurdish struggle has been marked by violence and repression. Over the past few decades, the Turkish and Iraqi governments in particular have killed tens of thousands of Kurds and driven hundreds of thousands from their homes. Kurdish groups in Turkey and Iraq fight this repression, but divisions within the Kurdish community have prevented these groups from launching a unified struggle. |
