Ataturk's Children: Turkey and the Kurds

For more than a decade, Turkey has been torn by a civil war between the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK) and Turkish security forces. So far, the conflict has claimed more than 19,000 lives and, as the conflict escalates, human rights abuses and death tolls continue to grow. Jonathan Rugman and Roger Hutchings provide a compelling introduction to the violent unrest between the PKK and Turks. Rugman relates the history of the PKK while eye-witnesses to the PKK war tell their stories alongside powerful images of the conflict.Rugman, Jonathan is the author of 'Ataturk's Children: Turkey and the Kurds' with ISBN 9780304333837 and ISBN 0304333832.
