Скачать или смотреть Gülay Kilicaslan on Deprovincialising Kurdish Politics

Looking at the two recent episodes of mass displacement of Kurds (1990s and mid-2010s) carried out by the Turkish state, the Brown Bag Lecture "Deprovincialising Kurdish Politics: Forced Migration and Activism Across Kurdistan, Turkey and Europe" shed light on how forced displacement influences the dynamics of political mobilisation in Kurdish contentious politics. Gülay Kilicaslan discussed the role of forced displacement in transforming the dynamics of contentious politics and the politics of scale in the processes of actors’ mobilisation in a settler–colonial context.

The talk on 24 May 2022 took place in the framework of BICC’s Brown Bag Lecture Series “Displacement and Development” which aims to interlink conflict and displacement studies on the one hand and development respectively humanitarian aid-oriented analyses on the other. It takes place in cooperation with the project Forced Migration and Refugee Studies: Networking and Knowledge Transfer (FFVT), funded by the German
Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF).
