| Sumario: | The first book to provide a rigorous theoretical analysis of the Kurdish issue through the lens of social movement theory. The empirical material, the result of research in Ankara, Turkey, Iraq, Iran and Syria makes the book a compelling read for students of the Middle East, ethnic relations and sociology. "David Romano's book focuses on the Kurdish case to try and make sense of ethnic nationalist resurgence more generally. In a world rent by a growing number of such conflicts, the questions posed about why, how and when such challenges to the state are mounted are becoming increasingly urgent. Throughout, the author analyzes these questions through the lens of social movement theory, considering in particular politico-social structures, resource mobilization strategies, and cultural identity. His conclusions offer some thought-provoking insights into Kurdish nationalism, as well as into the strengths and weaknesses of various social movement theories."--Jacket. |
