Müslüman milliyetçi düşüncenin, ilgili tarihyazımı içinde bir unsur olarak ele alınması ancak Birinci Dünya Savaşı ve Kemalizmin yükselişinden sonraya denk gelir. "Küçük Asya'nın çeşitli Müslüman halkları" arasındaki tarihsel farklılıklar ve sözüm ona "etnik bilincin olmaması" kesin bir tarihsel olgu olarak sunulur ve Birinci Dünya Savaşı'ndan önce Müslümanlar arasında milliyetçi eğilimlerin mevcut olduğu kesin bir dille reddedilir. Geçmişin bu söylemsel inşasında, Türk milliyetçiliğinin doğuşu "modern Türk devleti"nin kuruluşuyla eş tutulur. Aynı dönem, Ortadoğu'da Müslüman milliyetçiliğinin de doğum tarihi olarak görülür. Bu çalışma, din ve milliyetçilik arasındaki ilişkinin izlerini sürüyor ve yukarıda değinilen yerleşik algıları ve kabulleri sorguluyor. Özellikle geç Osmanlı dünyasındaki bazı İslami düşünce eğilimlerine odaklanarak modern İslami düşünce ile milliyetçilik arasındaki karşılıklı etkiyi inceleyen bu çalışma, on dokuzuncu yüzyılın sonu ile yirminci yüzyılın başlangıcındaki Kürt ve Türk tarihlerindeki karşılıklı ilişkiyi dinsel söylemlerin kullanılma biçimlerini de göz önünde bulundurarak ele alıyor. Milliyetçi söylemler ile dinsel düşüncenin rahatlıkla iç içe geçmesine olanak sağlayan dinsel yorumların esnekliğine ve bunu sağlayan tarihsel arkapılana dikkat çeken kitap dönemin değerlendirilmesiyle ilgili özgün bir yaklaşım sergiliyor.

Religious interpretation, like other systems of meaning-production, is affected by its historical and political contexts, and the processes of interpretation and religious translation bleed into the institutional discourses and processes of nation-building. This book calls into question the foundational epistemologies of the nation-state by centering on the pivotal and intimate role Islam played in the emergence of the nation-state, showing the entanglements and reciprocities of nationalism and religious thought as they played out in the Middle East.

These investigations take place in light of a long work on numerous historical documents, which are studied from an interdisciplinary perspective. The author, in his analyses has benefited from theories of nationalism, religion, history as well as discourse studies. For instance, the Islamic revivalist project of sheikh Ubeydullah of Nehri has been analysed by way of a close reading of his poetic work, Masnavi or Tuhfetul al-Ehbab. Similarly, to show a more complex picture of 1918–22 uprising Ismail Agha of Shikak (a.k.a. Simko), this study draws on many memoirs, personal accounts, and other unexplored primary sources.

However, the concept itself has a relatively long history in Shi‘i juridical endeavors.
From its inception, the Twelver Shi‘i religion justified its opposition to the dominant Sunni majority and tied its raison d’être to the claim of having access to ‘infallible guidance and leadership. This exclusive spiritual and political leadership became available to Shi‘ism through its belief in the divine leadership of twelve religious figures who were all descendants of the Prophet of Islam.

Drawing on the scholarship on Palestine studies and particularly Sara Roy’s theory of “de- development,” in this paper, we study how the sovereign ethnonation in Iran instrumentalizes and distorts development to subjugate the minoritized Kurdish nation. Along with contextualizing de-development theory within the broader discipline of developmental studies and elucidating the operatives of de-development, we compare the politicoeconomic circumstances of Rojhelat (eastern Kurdistan/Iran) with that of Palestine to underline the key similarities and differences between these two cases. Our research will illustrate the shortcomings of developmental studies in explaining the ethnoracial and religious undercurrents of economic disparity and reveal the noneconomic objectives of economic exploitation in the Middle East.

Through poetry, literature, and humor, Kurds express the anguish of displacement, colonial oppression, and the loss of sovereignty. This resilient narrative is deeply shaped by the forced assimilation and suppression under ruling powers, like the daily Iranian national anthem ritual that denies Kurdish autonomy. Humor and irony, often theological, highlight a sense of divine neglect, as seen in stories and poems where God is portrayed as indifferent to Kurdish suffering. Poets like Sherko Bêkas, Hajar, and Hêmin Mukryani utilize the Kurdish language as a form of resistance, affirming Kurdish rights and challenging religious and political hegemonies. Through geographical and linguistic expressions, Kurds maintain a continuous cultural and political stance against colonial borders and advocate for a reclaimed Kurdistan, turning everyday language into a powerful act of decolonization.

When the lamentable news of his passing reached me, it hit me deep inside. For my generation, such deaths go beyond mere mortality. They are not commonplace deaths. It is not just the passing of a singer like Rassu Mamo, who embodies the artistic soul of my people, vanishing into the shadows like countless Kurdish departures every day. No, these deaths hold a weight far beyond the personal. They stand as poignant symbols of a living nation caught in the throes of an enduring crisis. In life and in death, these singers become a symbol of a nation on the brink. A people oppressed by the political, cultural and linguistic colonization of the ruling state. Their existence, their art, their songsall are battlegrounds in a struggle against an oppressive power.

I argue that modern Islamic thought-a new way of conceiving Islam that began in the late nineteenth century-has some basic features that reveal the influence of Western colonial discourse, racial theories, and nationalism. I will provide many examples that show how contemporary Islamic thought has internalized the colonial discourse on religion, nation, and state. In particular, I will discuss the influence of nationalism on Islamism and how Islamists believe that a "true" Islamic life requires the creation of an Islamic state. But modern states are essentially limited, and national interests determine their relations with the outside world. An Islamic state cannot be an exception to the latter rule. Therefore, Islamic principles cannot determine an Islamic state's domestic and foreign policies; ultimately, it would have to function like a nation-state. Through a brief discussion of the policies of the Islamic Republic of Iran (IRI) and Turkey, I will also show how the discourse of these states is nationalist in practice and that the national interest of these states determines their foreign and domestic policies.

Our article argues that, since 1979, the policy of 'firing at will' has been the defining feature of the Islamic Republic's model of governance and corresponds to the spirit of its constitution. Inspired by the scholarship on disciplinary policies, this article seeks to contextualize the 'firing at will' policy within the ethno-religious and racial discourse embodied in and warranted by the Islamic Republic's constitution. Finally, by discussing the state's violent treatment of Kurdish kolbers (cross-border laborers), we will show how the Iranian state's internal colonial policies have engendered a state of exception and normalized the daily spectacle of violence in Eastern Kurdistan.

Sponsored by the state, ethnoracial archaeological studies in Iran have functioned as a powerful instrument for constructing a desired past, one that is informed by Persianist primordial nationalism. To justify the state's concurrent homogenization policies, Iranian archaeology has ascribed a sole historical agency to the Persian ethnie. Iranian archaeological studies have been employed by the Persianist intelligentsia and the state for propagating the idea of the singularity of "the nation"-one in which nonsovereign communities have no history, identity, or culture. Building on emergent decolonized literature on archaeology, this paper aims to interrogate some of the fundamental premises of nationalist archaeological studies in Iran.

I shall sing and you must listen to my songs.-Farzad Kamangar (the executed Kurdish teacher), A Letter to the Prison Guard. The creation of a national hegemony often involves a hegemony of language.-Michael Billig, Banal Nationalism. It would be quite futile to inquire whether racist theories have emanated chiefly from the elites…. It is, however, quite clear that they are 'rationalized' by intellectuals.-Etienne Balibar, Race, Nation, Class: Ambiguous Identities. This paper is a study of the Islamic Republic of Iran's Frist to Twelve grade textbooks. This paper examines issues of language, race, ethnicity, and religious nationalism in textbooks, and to cast light on how the state in Iran has striven to Perso-Shi'ify the polity through its education system. The official textbooks depict the sovereign community (Persians) as the sole agent of history. The state considers alternative (unofficial) narratives treasonous. This is an in-depth study of how Iran's state-sanctioned textbooks, their situatedness, and the contextual knowledge gained from them offer revealing points of interpretation, illuminating the foundation of the existing structural ethno-linguistic dividing lines, and shows that Islamism, as the governing bounded logic implanted in textbooks, lends solidity to racial theories and historiographies. This study sporadically discusses the views and experiences of a number of Kurdish school teachers with whom we could conduct in-depth interviews.

The Islamic Republic’s coming to power – after the1979 Revolution – gravely intensified the state’s securitisation policies in the Eastern Kurdistan (also known as Rojhelat). This article, thus, investigates the Islamic Republic’s anti-Kurdish strategies starting immediately after the Revolution. Those policies can be best characterised as an exclusionary inclusion. In this liminal sphere of political life, Kurds are subjugated to the daily struggle of preservation of their identity. This paper casts light on the state’s assimilatory strategies in Eastern Kurdistan exerted through militarisation, minoritisation, and a steady cultural and demographic transformation of the region.

In this paper, we intend to deconstruct the term ‘tribalism’ as a colonial category, which figures as a prominent concept in social studies on Kurds as well as the Middle East at large. Blithely used, tribalism has occupied a central place, especially in the existing scholarship on Kurdistan. Some earlier anthropological works have gone so far as to regard tribalism as the ‘DNA’ of Middle Eastern people. Drawing on recent studies on Latin America, Africa and Central Asia, we argue that the use of tribalism as if it is the natural constitution of Kurdish society has caused a significant misrepresentation and oversimplification of socio‐political life in Kurdistan as well as the broader Middle East. In a way, the existing body of scholarship on this region has reproduced statist‐nationalist discourses at the expense of dominated communities (e.g., Kurds). The historical context of both colonial powers and nation‐states ‘combating tribes and tribalism’ coincided with the emergence of the discourse of racial biopolitics. Thus, the use of the term tribalism to define certain nations or ethnic groups should not be viewed as merely an application of socio‐anthropological categories. Hence, we argue that the ethical aspects and implications of the use of tribalism by both colonial powers and later by the nation‐state to define certain ethnic groups must not be overlooked.
این مقاله مطالعەای است در خصوص کتب درسی جمهوری اسلامی ایران کلاس اول تا دوازدهم. این نوشتە به بڕسی مسائلی مانند زبان، نژاد، اتنیسیتە و ناسیونالیسم مذهبی در کتابهای درسی میپردازد تا روشن سازد کە چگونە دولت در ایران برای فارسی_شیعی کردن جامعە از طریق سیستم آموزشی سخت در تلاش است. کتب رسمی درسی، جامعەی حاکم (فارسها) را به عنوان تنها کنشگر و عامل در تاریخ ایران به تصویر میکشند. دولت ارائە هر گونە روایت جایگزین (غیر رسمی) خارج از این چارچوب را خیانت بە "کشو" میداند. این مقالە، مطالعەی عمیقی است که نشان میدهد کتاب های درسی تالیف دولت ایران، جایگاه آنها و دانش زمینەای که از آنها به دست می آید، چگونه نکات آشکار تفسیری را ارائه میدهد، بنیان خطوط تقسیم کنندە اتنوزبانی ساختاری را روشن میکند و نشان میدهد که اسلامگرایی به عنوان منطق حاکم بر کتاب های درسی، به این نظریه های نژادی و تاریخ نگاریها استحکام میبخشد. در چند جای این مطالعه، نظرات و تجربیات تعدادی از معلمان کورد را که توانستیم با آنها مصاحبەهای عمیقی انجام دهیم، مورد بحث و بڕرسی قرار دادەایم.

در این مقاله، در نظر داریم اصطلاح "قبیلهگرایی" را به عنوان سازه ای استعماری، كه به عنوان یك مفهوم برجسته در مطالعات اجتماعی كردها و نیز در مقیاس بزرگتر خاورمیانه، مطرح میشود، را بررسی و شالوده شکنی كنیم. اصطلاح قبیلەگرایی وکاربرد سرسری و بیدقت آن، جایگاه مهمی به ویژه در پژوهشهای مربوط بە کردستان از آن خود کرده است. برخی از تحقیقات انسانشناسانه قدیمیتر تا آنجا پیش رفتهاند که قبیلەگرایی را بە سان دیانای مردم خاورمیانه میدانند. ما با استناد به مطالعات اخیر مربوط بە آمریکای لاتین، آفریقا و آسیای میانه، استدلال میكنیم كه بکارگیری اصطلاح قبیلهگرایی، کە ادعا میشود ساختار طبیعی جامعە کرد است، در مفهوم متداول خود به تحریف واقعیت و سادەسازی بیش از حد زندگی سیاسی-اجتماعی کردستان و در مقیاس وسیعتر خاورمیانە منجر شده است. به نوعی، مجموعە پژوهشهای موجود در این منطقه، گفتمانهای دولتی-ناسیونالیستی را بە زیان جوامع تحت سلطه (مثلاً کردها) بازتولید کردهاند. بستر و زمینه تاریخی هر دو پدیدە قدرتهای استعماری و دولت-ملتهایی کە "در حال مبارزه با قبایل و قبیلهگرایی" هستند، با ظهور گفتمان بیوپولیتیک نژادی همزمان شد. بنابراین، استفاده از اصطلاح قبیلهگرایی برای تعریف برخی ملل یا گروههای اتنیکی خاص را نباید صرفاً به عنوان مسئلەای از بکارگیری مقولات اجتماعی- انسانشناختی تلقی کرد. از این رو، ما استدلال میکنیم که جنبههای اخلاقی و پیامدهای استفاده از قبیلهگرایی توسط قدرتهای استعماری و بعداً توسط دولت-ملتها برای تعریف و مشخص کردن برخی اتنیکها نباید مورد غفلت قرار گیرد.
Farzad’s execution symbolized the brutality of the religious regime in Tehran. Sherko Bekes, the renowned Kurdish poet, penned the following poem to describe the pain of Farzad’s death in which he frequently refers to the Iranian state as the Republic of execution.
