| Summary/Abstract |
More than 30 years after it was founded as a small, violent, and isolated Kurdish party advocating Marxist revolution and the creation of a pan-Kurdish state, the Kurdistan workers Party (Partiyzz Karkaren Kurdistan) or PKK has both spawned and/or inspired a plethora of Kurdish nationalist organizations in Turkey. The rise of Kurdish nationalism, demands for Kurdish constitutional and legal rights, and need to establish new organizational names and identities to substitute for that of the
"terro1ist"-designated PKK help explain this Kurdish organizational proliferation. To the extent that the PKK has ignited Kurdish democratic self-determination, this article will analyze the broadly-based, complementary dynamics ol the various Kurdish nationalist groups in Turkey created over the years by the PKK (KCK]. VV hat are its components? Why were they created? How do they interact with each other? How successful has this movement been? Specifically analyzed are the PKK, KCK, BDP and the DTK in Turkey; and in the European diaspora, KON-KURD, KGK, KNK, EUTCC, Pl K, and CAMPACC, among others. The tentative conclusion is that this Kurdish movement has enjoyed enough success to promise an eventual solution to the long-simmering Kurdish problem in Turkey along the lines of democratic autonomy or democratic self-determination and thus will be fair to all parties.

| Summary/Abstract |
Understanding the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) presents a number of problems. The immediate origins of the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) lie in the opportunity spaces provided by two bitter civil wars that challenged the exiting states system and borders created by the Sykes-Picot Agreement of World War – I; the bloody Sunni-Shia civil war in Iraq that followed the US overthrow of Saddam Hussein in 2003, and the even more horrific civil war that has been raging in Syria since 2011.
