Reviews
"Engaging with a vast body of literature on power, colonialism, and gender Topal offers an original and insightful study of the multifaceted experiences of women fighters and the evolution of gender relations within the Kurdish movement across generations. Pursuing an interpretivist approach informed by in-depth interviews and multiple site visits, his work represents the state-of-the art in qualitative methods in Kurdish studies." -- Günes Murat Tezcür, Professor, Arizona State University, USA "This unique study gives us insights into the lives, perceptions, and goals of Kurdish women fighters. Theoretically inspired by Donna Haraway and Karen Barad, Mustafa Topas shows, how the women fighters living in the mountains recreate themselves as free women in interaction with nature. His study of the political structures in autonomous Rojava reveals how the women fighters' gender ideas have influenced local Kurdish communities." -- Drude Dahlerup, Professor, Stockholm University, Sweden., Engaging with a vast body of literature on power, colonialism, and gender Topal offers an original and insightful study of the multifaceted experiences of women fighters and the evolution of gender relations within the Kurdish movement across generations.

Synopsis
The Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) is a Kurdish militant political organization and armed guerrilla movement. Designated a terrorist organization by Turkey, the EU and the US, it seeks self-determination from Turkey. But this book examines the other changes it generates in society, focusing on how it has become a platform for shifts in gender politics through its women fighters. Based on fieldwork undertaken in Iraq, Syria and Europe - including in-depth interviews and participant observation within women's camps - the book examines Kurdish women fighters' motivations to join the PKK, as well as their personal life stories and views on gender, patriarchy, and ethnic minority experiences. This is the largest ethnographic study on the PKK to date and the book argues that in addition to seeking their nation's struggle for survival and a democratic society, Kurdish women fighters are driven by the prospect of improving conditions for themselves and for women across the entire region.

    Seller was very fast on shipping out the item I purchased. Unfortunately the USPS misplaced the package (tracking on the package stopped moving) so I never received it. Seller was very gracious and initiated a refund. Honest professional Seller!!

    Shipping took forever and a day. I placed my order January 18th. Label was created in OR 1/21. On 1/23 a shipping label was printed at a kiosk in DC??? On 1/25 I messaged the seller, who replied "Thank you for your patience. Your item has been dropped off at the post office. It should arrive Jan 28-29." Tracking was updated on 1/28 - package at USPS facility Portland, OR. I did not receive my package until 2/1. While the order was as described, I would not recommend if you want timely shipping!
