Im Herbst 2023, in Tagen des Krieges in Gaza, treffen ein älterer Deutscher und eine jüngere Zuwanderin türkisch-kurdisch-alevitischer Herkunft aufeinander und befragen sich gegenseitig. Sie fragt, welche Verpflichtungen sich aus dem Holocaust für den einzelnen Deutschen ergäben, und er fragt umgekehrt, was denn die muslimisch-kurdischen Verwerfungen in der jüngeren türkischen Geschichte für sie, die Zuwanderin mit deutschem Pass, bedeuten.

Der Beitrag beschäftigt sich mit Subjektivierung und rassistischen Ein- und Ausschlüssen in Schulen und deren Verwobenheit mit neoliberaler Gouvernementalität. In den Blick genommen wird das Verhältnis von Schule, Nationalstaat und Rassismus im Kontext Türkei, das mit Blick auf die Marginalisierungen kurdisch positionierter Subjekte im türkischen Schulsystem zugespitzt wird. Der empirische Beitrag analysiert schulbildungsbiographische Selbstauskünfte auf jene Machtwirkungen hin, die rassistische und ökonomistische Diskurse auf marginalisierte Subjekte am Ort Schule entfalten ebenso wie Prozesse, in denen sich marginalisierte Subjekte diese Ordnungen aneignen, sich ihnen widersetzen und sich darüber als Subjekte konstituieren.

Abstract:
Sammanfattning Den väpnade konflikten mellan den kurdiska PKK-gerillan och den turkiska staten har pågått med varierande intensitet sedan början av 1980-talet och orsakat tiotusentals dödsskjutningar, och fördrivit ett stort antal civila i sydöstra Turkiet. De sociala och politiska spänningarna, som till exempel gäller ekonomisk rättvisa och erkännande av den kurdiska etniska och kulturella identiteten, har oroat den turkiska staten sedan den bildades efter det Ottomanska rikets kollaps. Även om ett ökande antal studier har beskrivit och analyserat dessa spänningar visar en översyn av tidigare litteratur att endast några av de tidiga studier fokuserade på hur kvinnor har upplevt dessa spänningar. Intresset för ämnet väcktes hos mig på grund av min turkiska bakgrund. Jag är född och uppväxt i ett land där turkar är i hög grad diskriminerade av landets majoritet. Jag känner väl känslan av diskriminering och isolering inte bara som en turk utan även som en kvinna. Därför bestämde jag, som är ursprungligen turk, att skriva om den turkisk-kurdiska konflikten ur ett genusperspektiv. Fokus ligger på kurdiska kvinnors känslor och erfarenheter i den turkisk-kurdiska konflikten som pågått länge i Turkiet. Studien syftar till att analysera hur kurdiska kvinnor uppfattar och upplever de sociala, ekonomiska och politiska spänningarna i skuggan av det rasande inbördeskriget mellan PKK och den turkiska staten. Studien fokuserar först på att identifiera källor till konfliktrelaterad stress som är specifika för kvinnor och analyserar sedan de strategier som kurdiska kvinnor använder för att hantera denna stress. Det empiriska materialet består av fokusgruppintervjuer som genomfördes våren 2017 i Istanbul, Ankara och Diyarbakir med totalt 35 kvinnor. Studiens resultat visar att kurdiska kvinnor möter daglig diskriminering och förtryck som riktar sig direkt mot dem, och samtidigt upplever de alla dessa negativa fenomen genom deras familjemedlemmar. De är tvungna att hålla tyst om sina känslor, rädslor, upplevelser, behov och sorg för att kunna skydda sin familjs liv.
Summary The armed conflict between the Kurdish PKK guerilla and the Turkish state has continued with varying intensity since the early 1980s, causing tens of thousands of casualties and displacing large numbers of civilians in South Eastern Turkey. However, the social and political tensions, relating to, for example, economic justice and recognition of the Kurdish ethnic and cultural identity have troubled the Turkish state since its creation after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. Although an increasing number of studies that has been written describing and analyzing these tensions, a review of the early literature shows that few of the early works focused on how women have experienced them. The interest in the subject was created by my Turkish background. I was born and raised in a country where Turks are highly discriminated against by most of the country’s majority. I feel the sense of discrimination and isolation, and therefore I decided to write about the TurkishKurdish conflict from gender perspective. The focus is on the feelings and experiences of Kurdish women in the Turkish-Kurdish conflict that has been continuing in Turkey for a long time. This study seeks to analyze how Kurdish women perceive and experience the social, economic, and political tensions in the shadow of the raging civil war between the PKK and the Turkish state. It first focuses on identifying sources of conflict related stress that are specific to women, and then analyzes the strategies that Kurdish women use to deal with this stress as women. The empirical material consists of focus groups interviews conducted in the spring of 2017 in Istanbul, Ankara, and Diyarbakir with a total of 35 women. The study's findings show that Kurdish women face daily discrimination and oppression directed directly against them, while at the same time experiencing all these negative phenomena through their family members as well. They must keep silent about their feelings, fears, experiences, needs and sorrows to keep their family alive.

Abstract:
The aim of this thesis is to study the concept of Kurdism and its emergence in the first half of the nineteenth century. The study explores the foundations, origins and evolution of Kurdish nationalism, which has grown out of Kurdism. It focuses on the three Kurdish emirates of Soran, Botan and Baban and their relationship with the Ottomans during the first half of the nineteenth century. Warm Ottoman-Kurdish relations continued until the beginning of the New Order (Nizami Cedit) under Sultan Selim III 1789-1807 and Sultan Mahmud II 1808-1839, and the modernisation and administrative reform (known in Turkish as Tanzimat) of the empire, which took place between 1839-1876. At this time, central power was in the hands of the Sultan who abolished all local authorities in the capital and in the Ottoman provinces, including Kurdish semi-autonomous emirates. This direct rule was met by strong Kurdish resistance. From this point, the Kurds conceived of the Ottomans as the “other” whose direct rule over them was unwelcome. They resisted the Ottoman policy of centralisation and the notion of Kurdism flourished. This can be regarded as a key turning point for the development of Kurdish nationalism, reinvigorating a Kurdish consciousness in respect of politics, language and literature. Kurdish Melas (Islamic scholars), popular poets and Kurdish folkloric poets played a major role in the creation of Kurdism in the first half of the nineteenth century in Soran, Botan and Baban emirates. Kurdish writers and scholars turned to literary forms for the expressions of Kurdish cultural politics. This thesis examines a range of literary sources to consider the rule of Kurdish mirs (princes), in politics, and the position of Kurdish intellectuals in the politics of language and culture in Kurdish emirate in the first half of the nineteenth century. This study shows how identification with Kurdism had enabled the Kurds to articulate their claim to their community and their emirates. Kurdism went on to engender Kurdish nationalism, whose growth was reflected in the late nineteenth century through the Kurdish revolt of 1880 by Sheikh Ubeydullah Nehri, the establishment of the first Kurdish newspaper in 1897 and the literature of the period, and which matured further in the twentieth century.

Abstract:
This research will focus on the minority position of the Kurdish population in Turkey and how it has developed over time. The aim is to study particular historical and recent events that have affected the Kurdish population to understand why the Kurdish people are one of the world’s largest minority populations without an independent state. This research utilizes a qualitative case study employing text analysis of scholars and treaties such as the Lausanne and Sevres Treaty. The theory that will be used during this research will be neorealism with the main philosophy being that state emphasizes an interest in power to secure security in an anarchic world. The state is the most important actor in any position regardless of the event occurring around it which also is the reasons behind the Kurdish minority position and why they have not reached independence.

Abstract:
La présente recherche vise à comprendre les expériences de conflit des femmes dont les maris ont rejoint les forces de guérilla dans les rangs du Parti des travailleurs du Kurdistan (Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan, ou PKK). L'étude est basée sur ma recherche ethnographique de 30 mois à Diyarbakır, la capitale non officielle du Kurdistan, et reflète les récits de 22 femmes. Elle se concentre sur les expériences de celles-ci vis-à-vis de l'État turc, de leurs propres familles et de celles de leur mari, et du mouvement kurde, tout en occupant et en façonnant différentes positions en tant qu'épouses/veuves de guérilleros, activistes politiques et suspectées de terrorisme. S'appuyant sur des approches féministes intersectionnelles et post-coloniales, la recherche cherche à montrer comment les femmes construisent leurs capacités d’agir face à différentes formes de violence à partir de leur vie quotidienne. L'analyse s'articule autour de trois axes. Premièrement, je présente une analyse etnographique de la vie des femmes en tant qu'épouses/veuves, laquelle jette également les bases d'une analyse plus approfondie. Deuxièmement, je me concentre sur les relations des femmes avec le PKK, où celles-ci redéfinissent les normes de genre au sein de l'organisation. Troisièmement, j'explore la manière dont les femmes font avec la violence structurelle et politique. L'étude montre que les femmes élaborent des stratégies pour être les agents de leur propre vie quotidienne ; ces stratégies sont profondément façonnées par la disparition de leurs maris et l'"attente" de leur dénouement. Ces positions, selon moi, ont des aspects habilitants mais aussi restrictifs en raison de la reproduction des relations entre les hommes et les femmes. Enfin, la recherche soutient que ces positions doivent être évaluées face à la violence destructrice de l'État et à l'oppression familiale contre lesquelles les femmes luttent dans leur vie quotidienne
The present research aims at understanding the conflict experiences of the women whose husbands have joined the guerilla forces at the ranks of the Kurdistan Workers’ Party (Partiya Karkerên Kurdistan, or the PKK). The study is based on my 30 months long ethnographic research in Diyarbakır, the unofficial capital of Kurdistan, and reflects the narratives of 22 women. It focuses on the women’s experiences regarding the Turkish state, their own and their husbands’ families, and the Kurdish movement While occupying and shaping different positionalities as wives/widows of the guerrillas, political activists and suspects of terrorism. Informed by intersectional and post-colonial feminist approaches, the research seeks to show how women build their agencies vis-a-vis different forms of violence from within their everyday lives. The analysis has three legs.First, I lay out an ethnographic analysis of women’s lives as wives/widows, which also lays the ground for further analysis. Second, I focus on women’s relationships with the PKK where women redefine gender norms within the organization. Third, I explore how women agentively navigate structural and political violence. The study shows the women craft unique strategies to be agents of their own everyday lives; these strategies are deeply shaped by their missing husbands and the “waiting” for their denouement. It reveals that such waiting creates moral positions that turn the women into representatives of the guerrillas. These positions, I argue, have empowering as well as limiting aspects due to the reproduction of gender relations. Finally, the research contends that such positions need to be evaluated in the face of destructive state violence and family oppression that the women struggle with in their everyday lives

Abstract:
This study explores how subjectivity has been represented in a selection of Sorani Kurdish novels from Iraqi and Iranian Kurdistan that were published in the first decade of the twenty-first century. Due to the statelessness and suffering of the Kurds caused by the political and cultural oppression, the first Sorani Kurdish novel emerged as late as 1961 and yet only established itself towards the end of the century. Within such an acute context, the novel became a tool in the hands of Kurdish authors which they utilised to preserve and promote Kurdish identity, culture and language. With the establishment of cultural centres and publishing houses in diaspora during the 1980s, the establishment of a quasi-independent Kurdish region in Iraq in 1991, and the Iranian government’s easing of publication in Kurdish by the mid-1980, the Sorani Kurdish novelists seized the opportunity to redefine the relationship between political commitment and aesthetics and to consider the possibilities for an analysis of different forms of subjectivity. All the twenty-first century Sorani Kurdish novels examined in this research have discarded, to one degree or another, the realist mode of writing which dominated the Sorani Kurdish novel until the early 1990s. That is, experimentation with new modes of writing and narrative techniques are the common feature of the novels examined here. By carrying out a close reading within a contextual framework and by drawing on Mikhail M. Bakhtin’s theory of the novel, narratology, and theories of subjectivity, this study intends to illustrate the newly emergent modes of wriring and discourses in selected twenty-first century Sorani novels and their implications for the representation of reality and subjectivity. This study demonstrates that the Kurdish novelists from both Iraq and Iran all focus their attention on recent events, relevant to each region, and how they changed the ways subjectivity could be imagined and depicted. The more modernist and postmodernist in form and narration the selected novels are, the more fragmented and passive subjectivity is; and the society that is represented in these novels appears to have separated from its high values and ideals.

Abstract:
This thesis analyses US-Kurdish relations and how they matured over time. Specifically, the Iraqi Kurds are the focus of the study. By describing the events that occurred from the 1960s to the 1980s in Iraq, this research tries to understand the United States’ (US) position and its relationship with the massive killings occurred in the 1970s and 1980s, in Iraqi Kurdistan. With a step-by-step reconstruction of the events, from the 1st Iraqi-Kurdish War in the 1960s to the Al-Anfal Campaigns, led by Saddam Hussein at the end of the 1980s, the Kurds are considered as the main playing actors in the region and in the conflicts. The main question of the thesis is to be able to answer the following dilemma: is the US responsible of betraying the Kurds? Chapter one begins with an analysis on the issue of the ‘Kurdish Question’, Kurdayetî and nationalism, concluding with a specific study on the Kurds of Iraq. Kurdish national-identity and nationalism are examined as well, as they are fundamental in order to understand why and how the Kurds became relevant for the international community. Chapter two extensively evaluates thirty years of conflict between Iraq and the Kurds, from 1960 to 1990. The thirty years of conflict encompass the 1st Iraqi-Kurdish conflict, the 2nd Iraqi-Kurdish War, and the eight Al-Anfal Campaigns. Short- and long-term consequences of the conflicts, as well as the involvement of foreign countries have also been analysed within this chapter, thus only for an explanatory purpose. Whereas chapter three, investigates on the US and how Washington viewed these conflicts, how it interacted, and what were the main reasons that pushed its decision-making process. Hence, considering the 1960s-1980s as a timeframe, the study proceeds with a fact-checking inquiry on primary documents. This research section outlines US thoughts during its relations with the Kurds and shows how realpolitik needs advanced when deciding upon the Gulf’s future. Declassified documents, memorandums, telegrams, and reports were attentively scrutinised, in order to understand US-led decisions towards the Kurds as well as why certain actions were undertaken. This section is the main part of the research, as it shows how everything that was stated in the previous chapters regarding the US had a primary goal which did not include the Kurd’s well-being. The concluding part of the thesis answers the main question of this research, thus if the US betrayed the Kurds. In order to do so, it considers everything stated throughout the study and tries to give an answer that can be either accepted or refused. The final debate moves towards the 1991 Gulf War, the US’s 2003 invasion of Iraq, and the Syrian conflict. The comparison with these last events was inevitable, as again, the US used the Kurds as their ‘boots on the ground’. However, there is no relation in terms of events, but there is indeed a relation in regard to US-led activities towards the Kurds.

Abstract:
By utilizing Critical Discourse Analysis (CDA) methodology, this study explores the ideological function of language in the Kurdish journalistic discourse of the pre-WWI period (1898-1914). Informed by the CDA approach, the present study perceives language as a social practice that produces meanings and presumes a dialectical relationship between language and ideology in the construction of social realities, beliefs and identities. Hence, this study is situated within the wider scope of discourse analysis that focuses on the link between identity, discourse, power and ideology. The study particularly utilizes, in an eclectic manner, the CDA conceptual frameworks developed by Norman Fairclough and Ruth Wodak in order to examine and explain the ideological function of the Kurdish journalistic discourse in the formation of Kurdish national identity from the prespective of a linguistically informed discursive study. To this end, from the perspective of CDA approach, the study methodically and analytically conducts an exhaustive close textual examination of numerous discourse samples taken from the corpora of three Kurdish journals of the late Ottoman period, i.e., Kurdistan (1898-1902), Kürd Teavün ve Terakki Gazetesi (The Kurdish Gazette for Mutual Aid and Progress) (1908-1909) and Rojî Kurd (Kurdish Sun) (1913). Given that the historical circumstance have a tremendous effect on the formation of discourses, this study investigates discourse practices and language devices employed in the Kurdish journals by taking into consideration the distinctive sociocultural and political conditions in which each journal was published. The study concludes that contrary to the common misperception in the literature, the Kurdish press of the late Ottoman period served as a platform on which Kurdish intellectuals negotiated, constructed and disseminated a distinctive form of Kurdish national identity and nationalism in their discourse despite –sometimes at the expense of- the hegemonic Ottoman and Pan-Islamic identities. However, although the Kurdish journalistic discourse managed to produce a Kurdish nationalist discourse among the Kurdish intellectuals and a small segment of Kurdish reading public, it failed to imitate the Andersonian notion of ‘imagined communities’ as the ‘cultural products’ of ‘print-capitalism’ that would immensely contributed to the formation of a unified field of communication around a national print-language. As a result the Kurdish identity discourse remained inconsequential in terms of making an impact among a larger Kurdish public that would ultimately lead to the construction of a braoder imagined Kurdish national community. The present study attributes the limited power and influence of the Kurdish journals or the Kurdish printing-press on Kurdish masses to the unfavourable historical circumstances, including the novelty of the newspaper genre, the low literacy rate in Kurdistan, the state-imposed restrictions on the production and dissemination of the journals, the personal and familial concerns and interests of the Kurdish leadership of the period and the lingering effects of both parochial (tribal, linguistic, sectarian, regional) and meta-loyalties (Islamism, Ottomanism) among Kurds in the era of nationalism.

Abstract:
Over the last two decades, the literary world has seen many new works by Kurdish writers and poets who have authored works of fiction, memoir and collections of poetry in the English language. This thesis, Roots and Routes: Kurdish Literature as World Literature, is the study of this body of work. As the first comprehensive study to cover the existing and emerging Kurdish Anglophone writings, this study introduces these writings into the arena of world literatures in English. However, it also identifies these works as a new literary canon in the realm of Kurdish literature. This study is an attempt to investigate why and how these Anglophone Kurdish writings emerged, who their intended readers are, and what roles these writings play or can play. To find answer to these questions, this study examines both the contexts out of which and in which these writings have emerged. It positions them in the historical and geopolitical contexts they have emerged from and examines the new and broader cultural, literary and socio-political contexts in which they have been produced, circulated and received. Looking at these two contexts, this study finds that these writings have created and can continue to create new spaces of global engagement with the Kurdish question(s) and Kurdish people. It asserts that these writings entail a kind of activism and create an arena of struggle and Kurdish voice of resistance beyond their imposed national borders, in the wider context of the world. It is within this context that this study argues for this body of work as a new discursive space of negotiation and recognition of the Kurdish questions and Kurdish people in global and transnational contexts. In its reading of the texts, this study, drawing on various theoretical frameworks and taking a reception-based or readerly pragmatics approach, aims to explore how these texts interact with their implied readers and the ways they might be read. It seeks to explore not only why but also and more significantly how these writings of different genres bear witness to Kurdish traumatic history and act as testimony. In short, it looks at both politics and poetics of witnessing and testimony in the emerging Anglophone writings by Kurdish diaspora authors.

Abstract:
Abstract In the past, the main focus of migration studies was the investigation of influences of immigrants on the host society and their integration into the country of settlement. However, transnationalism studies currently place much greater emphasis upon the other side – which is the effect of living in diaspora, in the society of origin with trans-border citizenship. The cultural, social and political interactions and connections between Sweden as a country of settlement and Kurdistan (especially Iraqi Kurdistan), create a transnational social space where the members of the Kurdish elite can play a major role in improvement of Kurdistan. From here, their adoption of a double identity makes it possible for them to permanently define and redefine their position in Swedish society while simultaneously participating in the inherent development of Kurdistan. The merging of the members of the Kurdish elite’s discourse in rebuilding of democracy and development with regard to reconstruction, leads to more focus on the role of diaspora and understanding the Swedish Kurdish elite’s impact on “functionalizing” and major contribution in the current state of Kurdistan. The ways of expression, increasing academic value, multicultural behavior, and the elite’s activities in civil society organization in between two or several states, their appearance in the international scene, experiences of living in both host / home societies, and multi-relations in a diasporic context continuing and re-adjusting national identities are essential indications of trans-border identity formation of Kurdish diaspora. After the liberation of Kurdistan (northern Iraq 2003), members of the Kurdish elite experienced transnationalism mainly through transferring their success in performing various activities for their homeland and at the same time integrating more into the host countries that received them. During this research, the researcher met and interviewed a number of members of Kurdish elites who had very interesting stories about the Kurdish diaspora, and more especially the important role they play in the transnational space that connects the Kurdish homeland to many European countries and the United States. Using a phenomenology method, the researcher classifies the elements that can characterize the practices of Kurdish diaspora elite as transnationalism.  Sweden is one of the main countries where the Kurdish elite diaspora gathered and are organized to contribute to the development of Kurdistan. Since the Kurdish diaspora is the largest nation that lacks a state, the Kurdish diaspora has formed a long-distance nation in host country.

Abstract:
AbstractThe Kurdish community in Japan offers a dynamic diaspora, where social media plays a pivotal role in expressing and negotiating Kurdish cultural and political identities. This research examines how online communication and social media activism empower Kurdish diaspora members in Japan, facilitating transnational connections, identity expression, and advocacy for Kurdish causes. By exploring the intersection of Kurdish identity, activism, and social media in the Japanese context, this study enhances our understanding of evolving diasporic experiences in the digital age. This study employs a content analysis approach, examining Facebook posts by Kurdish users in Japan and the online activities of civil organisations affiliated with the Kurdish diaspora, to understand the representation of Kurdish identity and activism on social media. The analysis of collected data reveals that Kurdish nationalism is actively expressed within social media platforms, despite limitations such as the predominance of the Turkish language for representing Kurdish nationalism and identity. This highlights the significance of social media in facilitating Kurdish political mobilisation and the resilience of the Kurdish diasporic community in Japan.

Full text
Abstract:
Starting with the introduction of Visual Studio .NET (VS .NET) application developers can write programs that may be used for different languages listed in VS .NET globalization. However, the list of languages is incomplete and is missing many. One of these missing languages from VS .NET globalization is the Kurdish: a language written and spoken by millions of Kurds around the world. Previous research conducted by the authors made a case for adding the Kurdish language to the globalization component of the .NET Framework. We were hopeful that the Kurdish will be added to VS .NET in the latest version (VS .NET 2005) that was yet to be released in full version at the time of writing that paper. However, VS .NET 2005 has been released, and to our disappointment, Microsoft excluded the Kurdish language again from the languages it supports in VS .NET. This paper is to emphasize adding Kurdish to VS .NET globalization component. It shows that there are no technical, lingual or cultural hurdles for adding Kurdish to VS .NET globalization and thus it is time to add the Kurdish Culture to the newly released Microsoft .Net Framework.

Full text
Abstract:
One of the main characteristics of a medical language is its abundance of abbreviations and acronyms. They are usually used for the sake of brevity. While English medical language heavily relies on abbreviations and acronyms, their occurrence and use in medical Kurdish is not documented because the topic is under-researched. Therefore, this study is the first attempt to academically explore the presence and use of abbreviations and acronyms in medical Kurdish. To do so, it employs a corpus of different genres of untranslated medical texts in Kurdish written by medical practitioners. The corpus is qualitatively and quantitatively investigated in order to see if any patterns develop and whether any potential norm is operating in terms of using medical abbreviations and acronyms in Kurdish. The findings revealed that MEDICAL Kurdish does not have its abbreviations and acronyms. To fill that gap, medical practitioners follow three different norms in using abbreviations and acronyms in their writing; first, they borrow the English/Latin abbreviations and acronyms and use them along their expanded Kurdish equivalent; second, they transcribe the English/Latin abbreviations and acronyms; and third, they use the expanded Kurdish equivalents alone without their English/Latin contracted form. Each of these choices has their own explanation and reasoning in terms of language policy, expert-to-lay relationship and hegemony of English in the field of medicine. This study can further be expanded to investigate parallel and comparable corpora of untranslated as well as translated medical texts to see what other normative practices develop in terms of abbreviations and acronyms in Kurdish for Medical Purposes.

The authors of the in-depth study of modern Syrian Kurdistan, The Question of Syrian Kurdistan – Reality, History, Mythologisation, argue that in the twentieth century there were two main waves of migration to northern Syria. One is expansionist and the other is restrictive. They form the current profile of the Kurdish community in Syria.

Rasul, Sabir. "Translating British Culture to Kurdish Immigrants: Domestication or Foreignization?" In 3rd International Conference on Language and Education. Cihan University-Erbil, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.24086/iclangedu2023/paper.940.

Full text
Abstract:
Translating culturally specific terms and expressions is often perceived as a challenging practice. This paper explores translating English cultural terms to Kurdish immigrants in the context of the UK public services. The UK government provides information related to public services in different languages for different immigrant communities living in the UK. The information can be in the form of reports, leaflets, brochures, etc., which are produced in different settings such as courts, local councils, hospitals, and so on. Dozens of English-Kurdish translators render such materials to members of the Kurdish community who do not have a good command of English. Following Venuti’s (1995/2008) theory of domestication and foreignization, the paper attempts to identify whether translators adopt a domesticating or a foreignizing strategy when rendering cultural terms found in UK public service materials from English into Kurdish (Sorani). The results reveal that translators use a mixture of both strategies; however, they opt for domestication in the majority of instances. The results also show a lack of consistency in implementing cultural translation procedures among the translators, which points to a need for translation training courses that offer guidelines regarding consistent use of terminology in translating culturally specific terms from English into Kurdish.

Full text
Abstract:
This topic is significant because it considers the language of an ethno-religious group, the Armenian people, in Iraq with non-Arab or Kurdish origins. The Armenian people did not originate from Iraq but from Armenia, one of the smaller countries in the former Soviet Union. Many Armenians were forced to migrate in 1915 to different countries in the Middle East due to ethnic cleansing under the Ottomans. This study explores the different methods by which the Armenian community has maintained its native Armenian language during its history in the Kurdistan Region of Iraq (KRI). To this end, the study includes a comparison of how the language was viewed and maintained across two successive generations of Armenians in KRI. The findings show that the first generation is divided into those who speak Armenian and those who assimilated and speak Kurdish. Those who no longer speak Armenian prioritised integration and moved away from their mother tongue. This posed a threat to the ongoing maintenance of the language in these communities. However, the younger generation has worked to revive its mother tongue by learning it in schools established in the region approximately 20 years ago.

Abstract:
This CREID Policy Briefing provides recommendations to address the marginalisation, discrimination and exclusion faced by Kakai women in Iraq. Members of the Kakai minority have faced discrimination and marginalisation during many different periods of the Iraqi state. Prior to the US occupation of Iraq in 2003, Kakais were deported to other regions as part of a government drive to alter the demographics of Kurdish majority areas. After 2003, the Kakais faced oppression as a minority group during a long period of sectarian fighting. This oppression continued with the Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist attack on Iraq in 2014. The marginalisation of the Kakais is exacerbated by a lack of legal recognition and differing views over their minority status.

Full text
Abstract:
In a judgment of 15 February 2022, the Federal Supreme Court of Iraq decided to repeal the 2007 Oil and Gas Law of the Kurdistan Regional Government on constitutional grounds. The judgment can be regarded as politicized, and has enormous implications for the autonomy of the Kurdish Region and the federal discourse in Iraq. This commentary assesses the soundness of the Federal Supreme Court’s judgment through critically evaluating the arguments against the Iraqi Constitution. It comes to conclude that the judgment has been a misinterpretation of the constitutional provisions that prescribe shared powers between the central and regional governments over oil and gas. These issues are an indirect consequence of the ambiguity and non-implementation of many constitutional provisions. Relatedly, this commentary provides some recommendations for a future cooperation between Erbil and Baghdad.

Full text
Abstract:
This paper aims to identify the most famous Yazidi heritage industries in the town of Bashiqa, in Nineveh governorate. It explores the economic, social and cultural reality of three non-material industries (the manufacture of al-rashi, olive oil and soap) in the town of Bashiqa by comparing how they were manufactured in the past with how they are manufactured in the present, and assessing the impact of ISIS gangs on these industries. Finally, the paper puts forward proposals for how these industries can be developed to maintain their heritage and sustainability. The research also aims to invoke the cultural and scientific heritage of the local community to draw inspiration from their sources of strength to plan how local production of the traditional heritage industries can be revitalised after the destruction caused by ISIS. The paper also explores the attachment of the Yazidi community in Bashiqa to the traditional industrial crafts and the extent of their influence on social and economic life, especially given that the city of Mosul is famous for its craft activity, in addition to the cultural and religious differences among the local population of Bashiqa, which comprises several components of Iraqi society (Yazidi, Catholic and Orthodox Christians, and the Muslim Shabak – Sunni, Shiite, and Kurdish) and thus affect the community’s view of the traditional crafts.
