<br/><br/> The role of the Kurds in Turkey has long been a controversial issue, although discussion has generally been focused around the political and cultural rights and activities of the Kurds. This book aims to bring a fresh approach to this contentious subject by shifting attention to the changing popular image of the Kurds in Turkish cities.
