Kurdish nationalism remains one of the most critical and explosive
problems of the Middle East. Despite its importance, the topic
remains on the margins of Middle East Studies. Bringing the study
of Kurdish nationalism into the mainstream of Middle East
scholarship, Hakan Ozoglu examines the issue in the context of the
Ottoman Empire. Using a wealth of primary sources, including
Ottoman and British archives, Ottoman Parliamentary minutes,
memoirs, and interviews, he focuses on revealing the social,
political, and historical forces behind the emergence and
development of Kurdish nationalism. Contrary to the assumption that
nationalist movements contribute to the collapse of empires, the
book argues that Kurdish leaders remained loyal to the Ottoman
state, and only after it became certain that the empire would not
recover did Kurdish nationalism emerge and clash with the Kemalist
brand of Turkish nationalism.
