| Abstract | "This book is the first in the English language on the Kurds of Central Anatolia. It explains how these Kurds came to be in the plains of Central Anatolia, how they maintained their distinct identity, their evolving relationship with Turkey and explores the diaspora communities now living across Western Europe. Based on extensive fieldwork, the majority of the chapters are written by scholars from within the Central Anatolian community with perspectives from history, anthropology, sociology and political science"-- Provided by publisher. |
