Reviews

Kurds Under Threat presents a fascinating analysis of intra-ethnic conflict and cooperation among Kurdish political organizations. Gumustektin offers deep insights into the internal politics of the Kurdish nationalist movement across Turkey, Iran, Iraq, and Syria through a mixture of qualitative and quantitative data. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in Middle Eastern politics, ethnic conflict, and civil war. -- Idean Salehyan, University of North Texas Scholarly works on the Kurds have been widely expanding in the last two decades or so since the Kurdish Middle East has become one of the most turbulent centers of regional geopolitics. Yet, less attention has been given to the dynamics of co-ethnic Kurdish relations across Iraq, Turkey, Iran and Syria. Thus, this book is a welcome contribution for understanding when and why different Kurdish political and rebel organizations adopt supportive or critical discourses toward each other. The book's empirically sound analysis of co-ethnic Kurdish relations would be a great interest for the scholars in the field. -- Serhun Al, Izmir University of Economics
