Abstract:
Provides insights on the Kurdish question, the Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan (PKK), and what both Turkish society and the European Union can contribute to encourage the formation of a more just and democratic Turkey. Evaluates the patterns and agendas of multiple political participants, including the United States, the Turkish government and various Turkish organizations involved in policy-making and shaping, individual European governments, the PKK and its assorted militant sub-groups, diverse Kurdish communities and their representatives, and civil society actors.
