Arguing that the Danish authorities treat the diaspora differently in comparison to neighbouring Sweden and Germany, Schott examines the political lobbyism, the courtroom activism and the humanitarian action of the various Kurdish diaspora groups. She examines the position of the Syrian Kurds within the diaspora who, like the Kurds in Syria, have been largely ignored until recently. Schott also provides new knowledge on diaspora engagement in war in the homeland by analysing the strategic interaction between the Danish authorities and the Kurdish diaspora community - both engaged in the war against Islamic State, but on different terms.Country/Region of Manufacture: GBAuthor: Anne Sofie SchøttBook Series: Edinburgh Studies on Diasporas and TransnationalismGenre: Society & CultureTopic: Social SciencesISBN-10: 1474491707Type: Countries & RegionsRelease Year: 2021 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
