This will be an ongoing page/note where I put sources and some notes for a critical – but fair, not disingenuous or condescending – discussion and appraisal of the Rojava/AANES (Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria) movement/system/revolution. Like most (probably all) the authors I mention here, I definitely have some genuine sympathy for and optimism about the positive aspects, projects and achievements of this movement, not least because this includes Kurdish self-determination. But there are some valid criticisms, which I’ve tried to collect here. And they must be taken SERIOUSLY, because I can already see the typical “you’re just an Islamist/Erdogan propagandist” attacks coming, just for bringing up some important considerations or relevant points.
