Overview
- Fills a gap in IR literature by presenting a post-structural study of a dissident ethnic movement and its foreign policy
- Examines the often overlooked ways in which the PKK rose to hegemonic position representing the Kurds and their interests
- Approaches the contemporary Kurdish nationalism led by the PKK as a counter-hegemonic narrative that entails the emergence of a new kind of identity and sense of belonging, through which the PKK has been able to exercise its power
