Item description from seller

Paperback. This is a work of excavation of the modern history of Turkey, with the Kurdish question at its center, unearthed and exposed in Candars captivating narrative.The founding of a Turkish nation-state in Asia Minor brought with it the denial of the distinct Kurdish identity in its midst, giving birth to an intractable problem that led to intermittent Kurdish revolts and culminated in the enduring insurgency of the PKK. The Kurdish question is perceived as a mortal threat for the survival of Turkey. The author weaves a fascinating account of the encounter between Turkey and the Kurds in historical perspective with special emphasis on failed peace processes. Providing a unique historical record of the authoritarian, centralist and ultra-nationalistrather than Islamistnature of the Turkish state rooted in the last decades of the Ottoman period and finally manifested in Erdogans New Turkey, Candar challenges stereotyped and conventional views on the Turkey of today and tomorrow.Turkeys Mission Impossible: War and Peace with the Kurds combines scholarly research with the memoirs of a participant observer, richly revealing the authors first-hand knowledge of developments acquired over a lifetime devoted to the resolution of perhaps the most complex problem of the Middle East. Providing a unique record of the authoritarian, centralist and ultra-nationalist nature of the Turkish state manifested in Erdogan's New Turkey," Candar challenges stereotyped and conventional views on Turkey and details account of the encounter between Turkey and the Kurds in historical perspective with special emphasis on failed peace processes.
