This interdisciplinary event builds on the conferences held at Sheffield in 2024 and LSE in 2023, and is organised by the Kurdish Studies Series at the LSE Middle East Centre and the Department of Politics and International Relations at the University of Sheffield.
The Kurdish Studies Series encourages dissemination and discussion of new research on Kurdish politics and society and provides a network for scholars, students and all others with related research interests. Over the past six years, the series has hosted 21 public events and published ten monographs and edited volumes as part of the I.B. Tauris/Bloomsbury Kurdish Studies Series.
We look forward to welcoming you to the LSE.
