Mahir AAziz's excellent work looks at Kurdish identity and ethnonationalism, and places the manner in which Kurdish identities have developed within the context of ongoing political and social trends. Professor Tim Niblock, University of Exeter 'Aziz's work is the most reliable work on Iraqi Kurdish nationalism, nation-building and national identity available. For those wishing to work with the Kurds in Iraq, the Greater Kurdistan Region, or in the diaspora, reading this book is a must.' Professor Sharon Linzey, University of Salahaddin, Erbil '[This book] is absolutely exclusive and proposes a very rich picture of the Kurdish educated youth... It sheds new light on the political evolution of Iraqi Kurdistan.' Professor Hamit Bozarslan, L'Ecole des Hautes Etudes en Sciences Sociales (EHESS)
Mahir A. Aziz was educated at the University of Salahaddin, the University of Baghdad and Birkbeck College, London, and holds a PhD in Kurdish Studies from the University of Exeter. He previously taught at the University of Salahaddin, Erbil and the Kurdistan University, Hawler, and is currently the Deputy Director General of Scholarships and Cultural Relations at the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research for the Kurdistan Regional Government.
