In Tribute to Dr. A. R. Ghassemlou
15,00 € – 40,00 €
Description
This volume commemorates the 35th anniversary of Dr. A. R. Ghassemlou’s assassination, a prominent Kurdish leader and Secretary-General of the Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan (PDKI). Ghassemlou, educated in Paris and Prague, transformed the PDKI into a mass movement following the 1979 Iranian revolution. He led Kurdish resistance against the Islamic Republic’s military occupation until 1989. Despite pursuing negotiations for Kurdish autonomy, Dr. Ghassemlou was assassinated in Vienna in 1989 by Iranian diplomats. Known for his hopeful realism, Dr. Ghassemlou’s legacy continues to influence Kurdish politics. This collection of essays by both Kurdish and international dignitaries aims to introduce an international audience to Ghassemlou’s political ideas and enduring impact on the Kurdish struggle for liberation and democracy.
