(314---321) 4 Introduction Le rôle qu’ont joué les intellectuels dans les transformations politiques et sociales dans la société kurde nous paraît très important, pour diverses raisons. Tout d’abord, il est certain que dans la vie politique de n’importe quelle société, les intellectuels ont des rôles à jouer. Ensuite, les intellectuels kurdes, en raison de l’histoire et de la nature de la composition de la société kurde, ont leur propre particularité. Il nous a donc paru important de les distinguer des autres intellectuels. Il est clair que les intellectuels ont toujours participé, d’une façon ou d’une autre, à la libération du Kurdistan. Il nous semble que si, aujourd’hui, la situation des Kurdes en Irak est largement meilleure que celle de leurs frères dans les autres parties du grand Kurdistan (c’est-à-dire en Turquie, en Iran et en Syrie), c’est aussi grâce aux efforts des intellectuels engagés et patriotes qui ont consacré une grande partie de leur vie et de leurs œuvres au service de la patrie, – et nous citerons quelques exemples de ces intellectuels qui ont participé directement ou indirectement à l’évolution de la société kurde ou au progrès du Kurdistan (dans ce travail, chaque fois que nous utiliserons le mot « Kurdistan », cela concernera uniquement le Kurdistan d’Irak). J’ai mesuré, dès le début, la taille des difficultés rencontrées par ceux qui travaillent sur le rôle des intellectuels dans les changements sociopolitiques qui sont intervenus au sein de la société kurde. J’ai voulu comprendre le rôle des intellectuels dans la constitution de la conscience collective. De même, j’ai essayé de connaître les relations des intellectuels avec la politique, le pouvoir, les partis politiques et la société. En même temps, je voulais analyser les luttes qui existent entre les intellectuels et les organisations politiques et sociales. Il me semble qu’il est important d’identifier également quelles sont les catégories d’intellectuels qui existent dans la société kurde. Chaque fois qu’on approfondit la recherche sur ces questions, on constate que les difficultés quantitatives et qualitatives se multiplient considérablement. Aussi, en étudiant les autres aspects de ces questions, parfois, d’autres sujets viennent se rattacher, et nous sommes obligés de les traiter également. L’une des raisons de ces élargissements dépend de la nature de l’identité de « l’intellectuel » pour laquelle on trouve des centaines de définitions et dont chacune 5 dépend de la situation temporelle, spatiale ainsi que des contextes particuliers. L’une de ces définitions que l’on peut citer ici, à titre d’exemple, est celle qui a été donnée par Edward Saïd : « L’intellectuel est la seule personne qui peut dire la vérité en face de l’autorité, c’est celui qui se fâche très rapidement, mais qui a un langage clair et audacieux ». Pour d’autres chercheurs de tendance de gauche, l’intellectuel est quelqu’un qui réfléchit : à partir de ce point, ces chercheurs se rapprochent de Gramsci. Ainsi on peut dire que tout le monde est intellectuel, mais tout le monde n’a pas la même fonction d’intellectuel dans la société. Nous serons donc peut-être obligé de donner des définitions,

  • A Study of European, Persian, and Arabic Loans in Standard Sorani
    A Study of European, Persian, and Arabic Loans in Standard Sorani Jafar Hasanpoor Doctoral dissertation for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Iranian languages presented at Uppsala University 1999. ABSTRACT Hasanpoor, J. 1999: A Study of European, Persian and Arabic Loans in Standard Sorani. Reports on Asian and African Studies (RAAS) 1. XX pp. Uppsala. ISBN 91-506-1353-7. This dissertation examines processes of lexical borrowing in the Sorani standard of the Kurdish language, spoken in Iraq, Iran, and the Kurdish diaspora. Borrowing, a form of language contact, occurs on all levels of language structure. In the pre-standard literary Kurdish (Kirmanci and Sorani) which emerged in the pre-modern period, borrowing from Arabic and Persian was a means of developing a distinct literary and linguistic tradition. By contrast, in standard Sorani and Kirmanci, borrowing from the state languages, Arabic, Persian, and Turkish, is treated as a form of domination, a threat to the language, character, culture, and national distinctness of the Kurdish nation. The response to borrowing is purification through coinage, internal borrowing, and other means of extending the lexical resources of the language. As a subordinate language, Sorani is subjected to varying degrees of linguistic repression, and this has not allowed it to develop freely. Since Sorani speakers have been educated only in Persian (Iran), or predominantly in Arabic, European loans in Sorani are generally indirect borrowings from Persian and Arabic (Iraq). These loans constitute a major source for lexical modernisation. The study provides wordlists of European loanwords used by Hêmin and other codifiers of Sorani.

  • A Brief Inquiry Into the Linguistic Landscape Vis-À-Vis the Official Language Policy of Iraqi Kurdistan
    Revista Argentina de Clínica Psicológica 2021, Vol. XXX, N°2, 523-533 523 DOI: 10.24205/03276716.2020.4053 A brief inquiry into the linguistic landscape vis-à-vis the official language policy of Iraqi Kurdistan Momen Yaseen M.Amina*, Javanshir Shibliyevb Abstract The present study seeks in to draw a framework to share most organized and developed landscapes of the Kurdish language and investigate the findings of local and international conferences towards Kurdish language status in Iraqi Kurdistan and other parts. The Kurdish language is a symbol of identity for Kurds in Middle East. Kurdish language consists of different dialects or varieties with varying degrees of demographic distribution in different regions of Kurdistan. Although Kurds had to wage a fierce struggle to possess their own statehood for many centuries, they never succeeded. In fact, Kurds reside in all countries as minority groups in the region including Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria. Moreover, a huge number of Kurds as refugee immigrated to western countries and live there. In the forefront of the struggle was a newspaper which is worth mentioning. In April 22, 1898 in Cairo (Egypt) Miqdad Madhet Badir Khan published the first Kurdish newspaper “Kurdistan”. The main aim of the newspaper could be framed as a struggle to achieve Kurdistan’s freedom and independent. Hence, the editor opened an educational door toward Kurd nation however it was a difficult job and it marked as a brighten point of the Kurdish history. “Kurdistan” was released 3000 newspapers each time 2000 of which were distributed in Kurdistan for free. The present study aims to explore the attempts toward Kurdish alphabetic change inside Kurdish regions and outside.

  • Production of Patriarchy in the Kurdish Language1 Amir Hassanpour
    11 The (Re)production of Patriarchy in the Kurdish Language1 Amir Hassanpour any Western observers of Kurdish society and most Kurdish nationalists claim that Kurdish women enjoy more freedom M than their Persian, Turkish and Arab sisters. The claim has been questioned on historical and political grounds (see Mojab 1987; Mojab, this volume; van Bruinessen, this volume). This chapter brings the debate to the realm of language, and argues that the unequal distribution of gender power is clearly recorded in the Kurdish language, which is one of the ignored yet powerful sites in the exercise of patriarchal rule. The evidence presented in this study reveals that linguistic, discursive, and symbolic violence against women is ubiquitous, matched by various forms of physical and emotional violence. Women have been denied the right to control their own bodies, sexuality, and sexual desire. The right to control women’s sexuality is conferred on the male members of the family, tribe, community, nation, and the modern state. Theoretical Issues One of the contributions of the feminist movements of the 1960s in the West was the creation of a body of knowledge about social gender and language, focusing on the exercise of patriarchal power in the realm of language. Individual feminists, widely dispersed throughout North America, acted as a language academy, and in the early 1970s launched a language reform movement by successfully promoting ‘non-sexist,’ ‘inclusive’ or ‘gender-neutral’ language use. It is significant that, since ancient times, ‘grammatical gender’ (masculine, feminine, and neuter) has been studied and widely codified in the descriptions of diverse languages.

Today the Kurds are more than 50 million, their homeland is called Kurdistan, which means “country of the Kurds”. Kurdistan is not the name of a state, but rather a land, which in the 20th century was obligatorily divided among five states (Turkey, Iran, Iraq, Syria and Red Kurdistan in the former Soviet Union). The Kurdish language is belongs to the Indo-European group. Kurdistan extends from the Caucasus to the Mediterranean Sea and from there to the Gulf. A part of it lies in Mesopotamia, which is regarded as the “cradle of humanity”. In this region, high cultures such as Mithraism or the Sun Cult already existed thousands of years ago.

  • The Kurdish Nationalism Movement in Ba'thist Iraq, 1963
    Reactive Nationalism in a Homogenizing State: The Kurdish Nationalism Movement in Ba’thist Iraq, 1963 – 2003 Submitted by Shorsh Mustafa Resool to the University of Exeter for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Arab & Islamic Studies by research in January 2012 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (Signature) ……S. Resool…… 1 Abstract The thesis analyzes the Kurdish nationalism movement as a reaction to the homogenization process by successive Iraqi governments since the establishment of the current state of Iraq. The case study for the thesis is Kurdish reactive nationalism and the Ba’th party from 1963 - 2003. The Ba'th Party came to power in 1963 then again in 1968 through two co-de-ta until their fall in 2003. The Ba'th Party tried to homogenize the state of Iraq and impose a Sunni-Arab identity to Iraq through centralized education and administration system. The Sunni Arabs are a minority group within the boundary of Iraq but had been the dominant group since 1921 until 2003. The Kurds refused such identity and demanded for their national rights to be recognized. The Ba’th Party excluded the Kurds from holding senior or sensitive posts within education, administration and military posts.

Political Communication and the Media in Kurdistan Ahmed Hama Gharib Abdullah Omar Bali A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the Sheffield Hallam University for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Media and communication (Ph.D) January 2016 1 Abstract This thesis examines how the Kurdish media communicate political issues in relation to corruption, reform, government performance, and citizens' trust. In particular it investigates how young people understand and respond to political issues across the media and how their social and political backgrounds affect their evaluation of the government’s performance and the role of elections in the political process. This investigation is combined with how media professionals view editorial policy of news coverage of political issues and freedom to access the public sector. This thesis employs a combination of methods: content and framing analysis to examine five media platforms; focus groups, interviews and semi-structured interviews to elicit the views of young people and media editors; a thematic analysis is employed to assess the data gathered from both young people and media editors.
