The purpose of this article is to examine the current Kurdish problem in Turkey, the Turkish government's reaction to the issues raised by this problem, and the challenge the Kurdish Workers' Party (PKK) poses to Ankara through its tactics of intimidation and terrorism. This imbroglio is also detailed in both political and economic terms. The article goes on to analyze the implications of this conflict for Turkey's relations with Europe, the United States, and other regional players, such as Syria, Iraq, and Iran. The conflict could jeopardize Turkey's relations with Europe and Washington and limit Ankara's role as a stabilizing influence in the region, thereby limiting its role regionally and internationally. This linkage to the West will be very difficult to substitute. In addition, civil violence and terrorist acts by the PKK could deter foreign investments and undermine tourism, thus affecting Turkey's long-range economic plans. Finally, the future prospects and options that Turkey might consider in bringing this conflict to a manageable solution are assessed
