For 14 years, while Syria was divided by civil war, Kurds in the north-east of the country tried to build a new democratic society, with equality for men and women – an inspiration for feminists around the world. But now, the Kurdish autonomous area, Rojava, is coming back under the control of a central government that's now run by former Islamists. Reporter Tim Whewell asks whether Rojava's rare social experiment - including all-women fighting units – will survive? He interviews Kurdish women, including the young co-mayor of one of the area's main cities, who's determined to continue her work, and learns about the origins of Rojava's unusual system. He also talks to a woman who says she and her family witnessed the killing in January this year of unarmed Kurdish men, by fighters supporting the central government. As such allegations multiply, many Kurds are nervous about their future in a united Syria.This episode of The Documentary comes to you from Assignment, investigations and journeys into the heart of global events.

Im Jänner kam es in Syrien zu Kämpfen zwischen der syrischen Übergangsregierung des einstigen Islamisten Ahmed al-Scharaa und den militärischen Arm der kurdischen Selbstverwaltung Rojava. Nach ein paar Wochen wurden die Kämpfe mit einem Waffenstillstand und später mit einem Abkommen beendet, das viele als "Diktatfrieden" für die Kurden bezeichnen. So sollen die kurdischen Bataillone in die syrische Armee eingegliedert werden und Rojava aus Damaskus verwaltet werden. Ein herber Schlag für die Kurdinnen, die mitten im syrischen Bürgerkrieg 2012 ein neues basisdemokratisches Regierungsmodell mit verpflichtender Frauenquote aus dem Boden gestampft haben. Wie geht es weiter mit dem kurdischen Traum? Wie fühlen sich die kurdischen Kämpferinnen, die 2019 den IS besiegt haben und nun mitansehen müssen, wie die IS Flagge wieder in Rakka gehisst wird? Und was hat es auf sich mit einem Video, in dem ein syrischer Kämpfer der Regierungstruppen zu sehen ist, der einen abgeschnittenen Frauenzopf stolz in die Kamera hält und damit Traumata reaktiviert? Darüber spricht Solmaz Khorsand mit der Juristin und Politologin Raze Baziani aus Berlin, die unter anderem in Genf für den Human Rights Council die Kurden im Minderheitenforum weltweit vertreten hat.

'Governance of Resistance in North and East Syria' examines the momentous development of the Kurdish-led autonomous administration since 2012. The creation of this unprecedented, ideologically radical entity is of immense significance in Kurdish, Syrian and Middle Eastern history and for discourses of nationalism and identity. This book presents new research from the expanding scholarship to interrogate Rojava as a political and social idea and explain the resistance narrative that underpins the ideology and governance structures. The contributions examine key aspects of the condition of the autonomous government, its successes, failures and impact, including the theory and nature of the political structures, their application in Arab areas, identity, education, gender and foreign relations. The findings demonstrate that North and East Syria has been revolutionary, that resistance there is resilient, and that there are constant and dynamic tensions between ideology and pragmatism in the evolution of this remarkable political and social project. The speakers at this event will also discuss fast-moving developments in north and east Syria. Meet our speakers Stephen Knight is a doctoral student at the Centre for Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Oxford. His ethnographic research explores the application of international humanitarian law by the Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria. Outside of the field of law Stephen's research also looks at the interaction between mythology and political movements. Stephen also practises as a barrister, specialising in the interactions between criminal law, protest law, immigration law, and public law. He has forthcoming works in the fields of trafficking law and Kurdish mythology. Thomas McGee is an interdisciplinary researcher working at the intersection of legal and social studies of the Middle East, with particular emphasis on Kurdish dynamics in the Syrian context. He is a Max Weber fellow at the European University Institute in Florence, and completed his PhD on “Syria's Changing Statelessness Landscape: 2011 as Critical Juncture” at Melbourne Law School's Peter McMullin Centre on Statelessness. Thomas has been a Visiting Fellow at the University of Oxford's Refugee Studies Centre and Universitat Pompeu Fabra in Barcelona. He has previously published on a wide variety of topics in the Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies, International Migration Review, Middle East Journal of Culture and Communication, Genocide Studies International and the Kurdish Studies journal. Currently, Thomas is developing his PhD for publication as a monograph. Dastan Jasim is a Research Engineer at the Dauphine University in Paris and an Associate Fellow at the German Institute for Global and Area Studies. Her research focuses on political culture, democratization and security studies. William Smith is an analyst and researcher whose work has focused on Syria since 2013. He was worked as an independent adviser on a number of U.K.-government and EU funded peacebuilding and stabilisation projects, including as the lead for a ‘Track 2' initiative in northeastern Syria in 2021-22 that brought representatives of the SDF and Autonomous Administration together in dialogue with local civil society. He currently provides conflict analysis for a Syria humanitarian project.

Im Januar hat die syrische Regierung unter Ahmad al-Scharaa die kurdische Selbstverwaltung Rojava in Nordostsyrien angegriffen. Der syrische Präsident will die Kontrolle über das gesamte Land erlangen, während die kurdische Führung zwar zu einer Integration bereit ist, aber ihre Autonomie teilweise bewahren will. Da man in monatelangen Verhandlungen zu keiner Einigung kam, wollte al-Scharaa offenbar seine Verhandlungsposition militärisch verbessern und die kurdische Seite in die Ecke drängen. Und genau das scheint gelungen zu sein. In nur wenigen Tagen nahmen die syrischen Regierungstruppen große Teile der kurdisch kontrollierten Gebiete ein. Circa 150.000 Menschen mussten in einer ohnehin prekären humanitären Situation fliehen. Die kurdische Führung lenkte ein, es kam zu einem Waffenstillstand und schließlich zu einem Abkommen zwischen der Selbstverwaltung und der syrischen Regierung. In dieser Folge spricht Pauline Jäckels mit der Soziologin und Kurdistan-Expertin Rosa Burç. Darüber, warum viele Kurd*innen in Syrien zwar den Sturz des Assad-Regimes bejubelten, aber von Beginn an skeptisch gegenüber Ahmad al-Scharaas neuer Übergangsregierung waren. Über al-Scharaas Militäroffensive und was der Wandel der geopolitischen Interessenlagen in Syrien damit zu tun hat. Und darüber, was das neue Abkommen für die Zukunft der Selbstverwaltung bedeutet. Rosa Burç arbeitet als wissenschaftliche Mitarbeiterin des Deutschen Zentrum für Integrations- und Migrationsforschung (DeZIM). Sie hat am Center on Social Movement Studies an der Scuola Normale Superiore in Florenz promoviert. In ihrer Arbeit untersucht sie, wie Narrative und Repertoires des Widerstands über Zeit und Raum hinweg überliefert werden, insbesondere unter Kurd*innen und anderen staatenlosen und marginalisierten Gesellschaften.

This episode of The Mohua Show is a powerful and unflinching conversation about racism, patriarchy, migration, and what it truly means to survive as a woman inside systems designed to control her.Writer, feminist, and co-author of The Politics of Patriarchy, Rahila Gupta speaks with rare honesty about arriving in Britain as a middle-class Indian woman — and watching racism strip her of class, security, and opportunity. From being pushed into “ethnic” writing boxes to fighting for abused migrant women trapped by immigration laws, Rahila reflects on how power, gender, and race intersect to shape women's lives.Drawing from decades of activism and scholarship, she speaks about why patriarchy survives every political system — from democracies to dictatorships — and why violence against women remains its most enduring weapon. She also introduces us to Rojava, a feminist-led Kurdish society inside war-torn Syria, offering a radical vision of what women's liberation can look like even in the most unlikely places.From landmark domestic violence cases that changed British law to the cultural impact of the film Provoked, Rahila reveals how stories, law, and feminist resistance combine to rewrite what justice can mean.A conversation about power over silence, survival over shame, and why dismantling patriarchy requires both courage and imagination.What this episode is REALLY aboutNot polite feminism.Not surface-level diversity.Not saving women without changing systems.It's about:• Racism and class — how migration erases social status• Writing as survival — finding identity through language• Patriarchy across the globe — why no system is free of it• Rojava — a women-led revolution inside Syria• Feminist resistance — how women build power even in war• Immigration laws — how the state traps abused migrant women• Killing to survive — when abused women are pushed to extremes• Bollywood and abuse — Aishwarya Rai and breaking the silence• Grief and poetry — writing as a way to hold onto loveIf you've ever wondered why women stay, why systems fail survivors, or how patriarchy hides inside law, culture, and even democracy — this episode will change how you see power.Support the PodcastIf this conversation made you rethink power, patriarchy, or justice — share it with someone who believes women deserve more than survival.Subscribe for conversations that challenge injustice, amplify resistance, and tell the stories that systems try to bury.Music Credits : https://pixabay.com/music/ambient-butterfly-113600/✅ Subscribe To Our Channel: /themohuashow Stay updated!

Was wie ein lauter Protestmarsch klingt, ist in Wahrheit eine Beerdigung. In der syrischen Stadt Kamishli nehmen Hunderte Menschen Abschied von Ahmed Omar, einem irakischen Kurden, der im Kampf für die kurdische Sache gefallen ist, für die Verteidigung des kurdischen Autonomiegebiets in Syrien. Doch noch am gleichen Tag wird klar: Der Traum von diesem Gebiet im Nordosten Syriens ist ausgeträumt. Nach Jahren der Selbstverwaltung endet mit der neuen syrischen Regierung das Projekt Rojava, das für viele Kurden Hoffnung auf politische Selbstbestimmung bedeutete. Korrespondent Daniel Böhm war vor Ort unterwegs und erzählt, wie die Kurden große Teile Nordostsyriens über ein Jahrzehnt lang selbst kontrollierten - mit eigener Verwaltung, eigenen Sicherheitskräften und einer multiethnischen Militärstruktur.

First up, we'll hear some updates and assessments from Garzan, a member of Tekoşîna Anarşîst, an internationalist anarchist structure based in Rojava and aligned with the Syrian Defense Forces. Garzan's voice has been re-recorded for anonymity and a transcript of their audio is available in the show notes. Transcript Then, we hear from Jînda a western activist engaged in solidarity with the Rojava Revolution to speak about what the spread of Syrian transitional government and the Turkish-backed so-called Syrian National Army militia into areas formerly under control of the Syrian Defense Forces means for women and different ethnic and religious minorities.

A last-minute "permanent ceasefire" may mean that northeast Syria is back from the brink of Arab-Kurdish ethnic war. But ceasefires have repeatedly broken down since fighting resumed earlier this year, with Damascus demanding disbandment of the Rojava autonomous zone, and the integration of its institutions—including its military wing, the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF)—into the central government. While the new pact sets a more "gradual" pace for this integration, the Kurdish aspiration to regional autonomy and the central government's insistence on centralization may prove a long-term obstacle to peace. In Episode 315 of the CounterVortex podcast, Bill Weinberg weighs the odds for avoiding a conflict that holds the potential for escalation to genocide, with the connivance of the Great Powers that so recently backed the SDF to fight ISIS.

Syria is entering a new and terrifying phase. In this episode Breht is joined by a panel of scholars and activists (Angie Bittar, Adam, Joma, Nur and Jalyssa) to take a clear-eyed look at what's unfolded over the last year and how it fits into the longer arc of the Syrian civil war, including the rapid collapse of the Assad-era order and the emergence of a new regime centered around HTS and Ahmad al-Sharaa (Jolani). Together, they break down the latest waves of mass violence and displacement across the coast, Suwayda, Aleppo, and Rojava, and ask what these events reveal about the new Syria. From there, they turn to the Kurdish question. They discuss the SDF, the long history of US imperial instrumentalization of Kurdish forces, the recurring pattern of abandonment, and the growing pressure now facing Rojava amid shifting regional and international priorities. They also examine ongoing kidnappings and sect-based killings, the breakdown of accountability, and what the allegations surrounding Syrian security institutions tell us about the direction of the new order. Finally, they zoom out to the information war. They map the propaganda narratives being pushed in Western and Zionist media, and offer practical "tells" for separating genuine reporting from information operations. Then, they close by asking what Syria teaches us about the current political moment: imperial strategy, proxy warfare, sectarian fragmentation, and what real solidarity demands.

Rapporter om övergrepp haglar medan världen tittar bort. I andra halvan diskuterar vi några av scenerna som utspelade sig på årets upplaga av World Economic Forum i Davos.

In Kobane leiden die Menschen. Erste Hilfslieferungen kommen an, die kurdische Stadt in Syrien wird aber weiterhin belagert. Die Waffenruhe zwischen den syrischen Regierungstruppen und den kurdischen Milizen soll Zeit geben, eine Lösung für die Zukunft der Kurden in Syrien zu finden. Die Kurden wollen ihre politische Identität und auch ihre Autonomie behalten. In Syrien ist eine föderale Struktur aber stark umstritten, gerade die arabischstämmige Bevölkerung in den kurdischen Gebieten ist dagegen. Und auch von außen erhöht sich der Druck: die Türkei und Israel bevorzugen einen zentralen Staat. Die USA unterstützen die kurdischen Milizen nicht mehr. In der Türkei hat sich die kurdische Arbeiterpartei PKK vor etwa einem Jahr aufgelöst. Die Kämpfer und Kämpferinnen haben sich in den Nordirak zurückgezogen, hoffen aber auf einen erfolgreichen Friedensprozess. In der Autonomieregion Kurdistan im Irak verwalten sich die Kurden selbst, sind aber auch von politischen Spannungen und wirtschaftlicher Unsicherheit betroffen. Und auch bei uns in Deutschland fühlt sich die Mehrheit der Kurden und Kurdinnen diskriminiert. Gibt es keine Hoffnung für sie auf Anerkennung, politische Teilhabe und kulturelle Freiheit? Darüber sprechen wir unter anderen mit Anita Starosta von Medico International, der Ethnologin Lale Yalçin-Heckmann und mit Kamal Sido von der Gesellschaft für bedrohte Völker. Podcast-Tipp: Deutschlandfunk Kultur - Weltzeit Kurden in der Türkei - Arbeiterpartei PKK fordert Frieden und Freiheit Seit 2024 läuft der neue Friedensprozess zwischen der Türkei und der verbotenen Arbeiterpartei Kurdistan.

Es gibt Gefechte zwischen Regierungstruppen (HTS) und kurdischen Streitkräften (SDF). Was ist in Syrien, in Kurdistan los? Die beiden ordnen ein. Was erklärt die massive Gewalt, die gerade ausbricht? Die Türkei bombadiert mit. Was ist das Ziel – Rojava, die Region Kurdistans, ein für alle mal auszulöschen? Und was haben Anhängerinnen und Anhänger des islamischen Staats damit zu tun, die in dieser Region in Gefängnissen sitzen? Sind die Chancen für ein stabiles Syrien vertan?

This week, we're pre-releasing an interview with James Stout on his upcoming AK Press book: Against The State: Anarchists and Comrades at War in Spain, Myanmar, and Rojava, due out early January. You may recognize James as a contributor to the Cool Zone podcast It Could Happen Here (including the recent four parter, "Darién Gap: One Year Later" December 1-4th episodes, 2025), distributed by IheartMedia. For this episode, we talk about the idea of anarchist armies, discuss those three conflicts, left libertarian approaches to formalized armed resistance beyond a guerrilla unit, some of the novel technologies and international solidarities that have developed and a lot more. Other podcasts James has worked on Migrating To America: A Dream Worth Dying For Myanmar: Printing The Revolution Reports Related To Child Soldiers and Conscription among the SDF https://www.hrw.org/news/2024/10/02/northeast-syria-military-recruitment-children-persists https://snhr.org/blog/2025/10/08/condemning-the-widespread-detention-for-forced-conscription-by-the-syrian-democratic-forces-in-raqqa-and-deir-ez-zor-since-29-september-2025/
