The struggle for freedom in Kurdistan has resulted in different ideas and practises on how to achieve a free life. One idea gaining mass popularity is Democratic confederalism and the democratic nation. Taking a holistic, inclusive and bottom-up approach, democratic confederalism attempts to deal with the global crises we face through democratic means rather than the nation-state.
In this episode we discuss the importance of this democratic project, what it means to us and why we’re so excited about it. Joining us is Yasin Sunca, a post-doctoral research fellow at the research group world politics of Bielefled university in Germany.
