Dûne/دون Kelimesinin Kur’an’da Kullanılışı ve Türkçe Meâllere Yansıtma Sorunu
Genel kabule göre Arapçada kelime üç ana başlıkta ele alınmaktadır. Bunlar, isim, fiil ve harf/edattır. Dûne (دون) kelimesi de bu üçüncü grupta bulunan sözcükler arasında yer almaktadır. Bu makalede, dûne edatının Arapçada kullanılışı ve anlam çerçevesi belirlendikten sonra, edatın ifade ettiği mananın meâllere nasıl yansıtıldığı ele alınmaya çalışılmıştır. Kur’an’da 143 defa yer bulan bu edat, çoğunluğu “min dûnillâhi/Allah’ın dışındakiler” şekl…
Müddessir Sûresi 30-31. Âyetler Bağlamında On Dokuzla Kimler Sınanıyor
Kur’an’ı doğru anlayabilmenin birçok parametreleri vardır. Bunlardan biri de ayetlerin içinde yer aldığı siyâkı [context] tespittir. Türkçeye daha çok bağlam olarak tercüme edilen bu kelime, herhangi bir ayetin öncesi ve sonrası ile anlam bakımından alakasını ifade etmektedir. Âyetin siyâk, iç ve dış bağlamı, kısacası Kur’an bütünlüğü düşünülmeden, bulunduğu yerden bağımsız bir şekilde tefsir edilmeye çalışılması yanlış yapmayı kaçınılmaz hale ge…

Cambridge History of the Kurds
Introduction
This special issue focuses on the main actualities taking place in Kurdish politics in Turkey during the 2000s and 2010s and critically evaluates their various dimensions and features. In more concrete terms, it investigates and sets out the following themes: the ideological transformation of the PKK; the rise of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (Halkların Demokratik Partisi, HDP) since 2012 and the success it had in the general elections in 2015; t…
The Transformation of Turkey’s Pro-Kurdish Democratic Movement
In the past decade, the pro-Kurdish democratic movement in Turkey managed to build an extensive organizational network and, with the rise of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (HDP) since 2012, has established itself as a key political actor in Turkey. This article discusses its emergence and transformation since 1990 by firstly reflecting on the movement’s key political demands to highlight the type of political project it seeks to develop in Turkey,…
Political Representation of Alevi Kurds in Turkey
This article explains the process of change in the political representation of Alevi Kurds in Turkey since the country held its first competitive election in 1950. It applies process tracing methodology to identify the dominant trends in Alevi Kurds’ political representation and highlights how the mode of their political participation evolved over time. The discussion presented here develops an explanation that connects the effects of key events …
Approaches to Kurdish Autonomy in the Middle East
This article focuses on the approaches and challenges to Kurdish autonomy in Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. Accommodation of Kurdish rights via autonomy arrangements has a long history as an idea but negotiating actual autonomy agreements was often a fruitless task. However, the weakening of state power in Iraq since 1991 and in Syria since 2011 has created opportunities for Kurdish movements in these states to develop and consolidate their autonomous …
A People without a State
The Kurds are a stateless nation and are a significant minority in Iran, Iraq, Turkey, and Syria. The total Kurdish population is estimated to be thirty-five million, which makes them the fourth most populous group in the Middle East. Political developments in Iraq and Syria in the past decade have increased the importance of the Kurds as a regional actor, and as a result, there has been an increase in scholarly work on different aspects of Kurdi…
Turkey’s New Left
Can the Peoples’ Democratic Party, the most successful left-wing force in Turkey’s history, avoid the fate of its vanquished predecessors? Cengiz Gunes describes the party’s trajectory, its roots in Turkish socialism and the Kurdish national movement, and the distinctive political appeal with which it has sought to overcome the tensions between them
The Kurds of Syria
The Kurds are a significant minority in Turkey, Iraq, Iran, and Syria, and their experience in the twentieth century has been mainly one of oppression and persecution at the hands of the state authorities. The Kurds' resistance during the second part of twentieth century, particularly in Turkey and Iraq, has turned a number of Kurdish movements into important political actors in the region. With the establishment of Kurdistan Region as an autonom…
A Comment on Martin Van Bruinessen's Review of Cengiz Gunes, the Kurdish National Movement in Turkey
I am humbled that Martin van Bruinessen, a leading figure in the field of Kurdish Studies, has reviewed my book in IJMES . However, the review contains a number of inaccuracies and misrepresentations with which I take issue in this response
Explaining the PKK's Mobilization of the Kurds in Turkey
This article focuses on the PKK's (Kurdistan Workers' Party) nationalist mobilization of the Kurds in Turkey in the past 30 years. By drawing on the concepts of ‘hegemony’ and ‘myth’, it examines the constitution of Kurdish political subjectivity and the representation of Kurdish identity and difference in political discourse. It reflects on the ideological and political debates over strategy and the contestation over identity that numerous Kurdi…
