General
Democratic transformations in the Arab world have reignited debate around the need for more inclusive political systems where the rights of different ethnic and religious groups are a priority in the transition period. This research will examine the dynamics of political representation for Kurdish and Amazigh communities, and help promote policies that govern diversity and enhance pluralism more effectively in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). Giving voice to ethnic groups Since the Arab spring and ensuing efforts to negotiate new social contracts, diverse groups have become more vocal in expressing their demands, which cover political, economic, social, cultural and linguistic needs. The mechanisms they use to voice their claims for political representation are both formal and informal and differ depending on the national context. Ethnic groups make claims at different levels: constitutional, institutional (from national to local, such as Parliament, civil service, and the security sector), political (leadership of political parties, societal (through groups such as NGOs, professional organizations, and student groups), and traditional (groups such as tribes, religions, and sects). National governments generally struggle to devise policies to integrate these groups. They often resort to discriminatory practices by treating these groups as a security threat. Representation for Kurds and Amazighs This research will investigate modes of political representation for Kurdish and Amazigh peoples. Kurds number more than 20 million and are the second largest ethnic group in Iraq, Syria, and Turkey. In Iran, they represent approximately 10% of the population. The Amazigh, who number around 30 million, live mostly in North Africa, Morocco, and Algeria. They make up more than one-third of the total population, with smaller communities in Tunisia, Libya, and Egypt. These two groups are diverse from an ethnic, geographic, political, economic, cultural, linguistic, and religious perspective. Negotiating rights in a new Arab world This research will explore how -these groups are consolidating and negotiating their rights within their national systems -some groups seek better representation within their own communities -the nature of their demands has evolved in light of the Arab spring Researchers will also study regional dimensions of the issues faced by the Kurdish and Amazigh populations. At a time when identity politics in MENA are prevalent, the aim is to promote the emergence of participatory, legitimate political systems that are inclusive of all ethno-cultural groups.
Les transformations démocratiques dans le monde Arabe ont relancé le débat concernant la nécessité d'avoir des systèmes politiques plus inclusifs permettant aux droits des différents groupes ethniques et religieux une priorité pendant la période de transition. Cette recherche examinera la dynamique de la représentation politique pour les communautés kurdes et amazighes, et elle aidera à favoriser des politiques régissant la diversité et rehaussant le pluralisme de façon plus efficace dans la région du Moyen-Orient et de l 'Afrique du Nord (MOAN). Donner la parole aux groupes ethniques Depuis le printemps arabe et les efforts qui ont suivi pour négocier de nouveaux contrats sociaux, les d'autres groupes expriment davantage leurs exigences, qui englobent des besoins politiques, économiques, sociaux, culturels et linguistiques. Les mécanismes qu 'ils utilisent pour formuler leurs demandes de représentation politique sont à la fois officiels et informels, et ils diffèrent selon le contexte national. Les groupes ethniques font entendre leurs revendications à différents niveaux : constitutionnel, institutionnel (du niveau national au niveau local, notamment le Parlement, la fonction publique et le secteur de la sécurité), politique (leadership des partis politiques), sociétal (par l 'entremise de groupes tels que des ONG, des organismes professionnels et des groupes d 'étudiants) et traditionnel (des groupes tels que des tribus, des religions et des sectes). En général, les gouvernements nationaux ont du mal à concevoir des politiques visant l 'intégration de ces groupes. Ils ont souvent recours à des pratiques discriminatoires en traitant ces groupes comme une menace pour la sécurité. Représentation des Kurdes et des Amazighes Cette recherche étudiera les modes de représentation politique pour les peuples kurdes et amazighes. Les Kurdes sont au nombre de plus de 20 millions, soit au deuxième rang en importance parmi les groupes ethniques de l'Irak, de la Syrie et de la Turquie. En Iran, ils représentent environ 10 % de la population. Les Amazighes, qui sont environ 30 millions, vivent principalement en Afrique du Nord, au Maroc et en Algérie. Ils constituent plus d 'un tiers de la population locale, avec de plus petites communautés en Tunisie, en Libye et en Égypte. Ces deux groupes sont différents d 'un point de vue ethnique, géographique, politique, économique, culturel, linguistique et religieux. Négociation des droits dans un nouveau monde arabe Cette recherche explorera la façon dont - ces groupes renforcent et négocient leurs droits au sein de leurs systèmes nationaux; - certains groupes cherchent à obtenir une meilleure représentation au sein de leurs propres communautés; - la nature de leurs revendications a évolué à la lumière du printemps arabe. Les chercheurs étudieront aussi les dimensions régionales des problèmes auxquels sont confrontées les populations kurdes et amazighes. À un moment où la politique axée sur l'identité est en vogue dans la région MOAN, le but est d'encourager l'émergence de systèmes politiques participatifs et légitimes qui englobent tous les groupes ethnoculturels.
