Abstract

Rad se temelji na problematici razvoja državnosti Kurdistana, kao povijesnog i aktualnog političko-geografskog fenomena. Naime, riječ je o relativno velikoj zamišljenoj državi koja bi trebala postati nacionalna država Kurda - najvećeg naroda bez vlastite države na svijetu. Prostorni je obuhvat rada uglavnom vezan uz kompaktno naseljen kurdski etnički prostor u širokom pograničju Iraka, Irana, Sirije i Turske, dok vremenski okvir odgovara razdoblju od kraja Prvog svjetskog rata, kada europske kolonijalne sile kurdski etničkog prostor proizvoljno dijele među novoosnovanim artificijelnim državama, do suvremenoga doba. Relativno kasno konsolidiran, kurdski se nacionalizam pojavio kao svojevrsni odgovor na brutalnu represiju koju su Kurdi kao manjinski narod desetljećima proživljavali u postojećem sustavu država na Bliskom istoku, a nastanak vlastite države postao je ''ideal'' kolektivne svijesti širokih masa. Osnovna je pretpostavka kako razvoju državnosti Kurdistana u realnim i aktualnim uvjetima predstoji eliminiranje velikog broja teško premostivih prepreka.

Abstract (english)

The master thesis is based on the issue of development of the statehood of Kurdistan as a historical and current political-geographical phenomenon. Namely, it is about a large, imaginary country that would become a nation-state of Kurdish people, the largest stateless ethnic group in the world. The spatial scope of the thesis is mainly related to the compactly populated Kurdish ethnic space in a large border regions of Iraq, Iran, Syria and Turkey, while the timeline matches the period since the end of The First World War when European colonial powers shared the Kurdish ethnic space among newly established, artificial states, up until the modern times. Consolidated Kurdish nationalism emerged relatively late as a sort of a response to the brutal repression experienced by Kurds as a minority group for decades in the existing systems of the countries in the Middle East and the creation of an idependent state became an ‘’ideal’’ of the collective consciousness of the masses. The basic assumption is that a large number of hard-to-overcome obstacles need to be eliminated for the development of the statehood of Kurdistan in realistic and current conditions.
