, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow here in PAIS, has published a new book titled "Diasporada Turk-Kurt Sorunu: Isvec ve Almanya’da Ikinci Kusak."

This book aims to contribute to a broader understanding of spill-over of homeland conflicts to the host country by diaspora groups. It analyses how the repercussions of the Kurdish question in Turkey are reflected in the interactions between second-generation Turks and Kurds in Sweden and Germany.

It argues that the on-going conflict adversely affects the relationship between the two ethnic groups, but that the tensions and conflict dynamics are not an exact reflection of the situation in the homeland, and instead take a different form in each host land. The contentions between the groups and their grievances are dependent on several factors that are rooted in the host land and directly or indirectly affect how these groups establish contact with one another.

The book is written in Turkish and is available to buy .
