The chapter focuses on the existence and performance of modern Kurdish cultural institutions, mainly in Iraq’s and Turkey’s parts of Kurdistan, to a lesser degree in Iranian Kurdistan and in Europe, as well as on their relations to their political and social environment. This presentation of an almost unknown set of organisations gives an idea of their origin, character of activities and scope of influence. It analyses their social reception and their power to make themselves audible in order to protect and promote the Kurdish language and cultural heritage, along with the right to self-determination seen through the prism of the neo-institutional category of an ‘organisational field’. |
