Beyond the PKK Issue: The Geopolitics of the Iraq–Turkey Relations

On August 11, a Turkish drone strike in north-eastern Iraq killed two Iraqi border guards who were returning from an alleged conflict resolution meeting with representatives of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK), which is considered a terrorist organization by Ankara, the US, and the European Union.

The Status of Erbil-Baghdad Relations

In Iraq, politics is personal, and the politics of Baghdad-Erbil relations is no exception. Improvements and deteriorations in this relationship have largely been dictated by interpersonal dynamics, such as the rapport and mutual confidence between leaders. In May 2020, the Kurdistan Region’s major political parties played an unusually decisive role in having Mustafa Al-Kadhimi selected as the Prime Minister (PM) of Iraq.

La comunità curda siriana tra guerra civile e dinamiche regionali

La crisi siriana ha raggiunto negli ultimi mesi dimensioni raramente ipotizzabili all’inizio delle sollevazioni popolari scoppiate nel 2011. Il conflitto, oltre ad aver mietuto ormai più di centomila vittime come attestato dalle stime fornite dal Segretario Generale delle Nazioni Unite, ha spinto un numero crescente di cittadini siriani ad abbandonare le proprie case per trovare rifugio in aree meno colpite dalla violenza o all’estero.

Sectarian Relations and Socio-Political Conflict in Iraq

Abstract
The invasion of Iraq in 2003 inaugurated a new phase, marked by fierce sectarian division, which strongly questioned the pillars on which the Iraqi ‘national’ community was built. Examining the dynamics and factors that led to these consequences will help us to understand these events within their historical context rather than viewing them as part of an endless phenomenon. The so-called ‘sectarian conflict’ in Iraq was not ‘sectarian’ because rooted only in different religious doctrines. It was a clash largely shaped along sectarian lines because of the lack of inter-communal communication and effective means of mediation. The paper focuses on the internal dynamics that led to heightened sectarianism in Iraq, starting with the historical background of political sectarianism in the first part, followed by inter-communal relations in post-2003 Iraq in the second part and concluding in the third part with recent dynamics.
