Abstract(s)
Este trabalho aborda a questão dos Curdos no Estado turco desde uma perspectiva sócio e
histórico-jurídica centrada na problemática do Estado como sujeito jurídico.
O trabalho contextualiza, antes de mais, a situação dos Curdos enquanto povo, autónomo
nas suas características mas enquandrado em conjuntos estaduais. A seguir, esclarece a
questão central — a da relação entre o Estado turco e os Curdos. Por fim, são abordadas
perspetivas de solução, baseadas na teoria do Estado.
O trabalho levanta questões que, vindo do passado, como um aparente acumular de
problemas, necessitam de ser analisadas à luz mais fria das normas internacionais
aplicáveis: a autodeterminação, o direito das minorias, e a capacidade para viver de forma
autónoma na matriz estadual.
O trabalho quer ser um contributo modesta, que visa explanar os problemas e transmitir
reflexões de cariz social e jurídico, mais do que dar uma resposta definitiva para um
problema cuja resolução depende em grande parte do modo como é abordado.
This work addresses the issue of the Kurds in the Turkish State from a socio-historical and legal perspective centred on the issue of the State as legal subject. The work puts into its context, first of all, the situation of the Kurds as a people, autonomous in its features but located into the matrix of several States. It also explains the specificity of the Turkish state in its relationship with the Kurds. Finally, the work looks at possible solutions, derived from the theory of the State. Several issues are looked at in the work, that came from the past, as an apparent accumulation of problems, and that need to be analysed in the light of applicable international standards today: self-determination, minority rights, and the ability to live independently in the State framework. The work intends to be a modest contribution, which aims at explaining the problems and convey social and legal reflections, more than giving a definitive answer to a problem whose resolution depends largely on how it is approached.
