Cinematography can be used as a weapon in the battle for identity. Kurdish people are in a constant need to reinvent their national identity. Some of them use cinema as a tool to tell their stories in order not to be forgotten. One of them – a critically acclaimed director from Iran, Bahman Ghobadi is known especially for his cinematic contribution to the Kurdish issue. The article briefly depicts the history of Kurdish cinema and describes in detail the image of Kurds in Bahman Ghobadi's first four feature films - A Time for Drunken Horses (2000), Marooned in Iraq (2002), Turtles Can Fly (2004) and Halfmoon (2006). All these films are not only great pieces of art, full of symbolic images, but they also contain a complex image of the Kurdish nation. Ghobadi uses his camera to tell stories of small, local communities displaced between Iran, Iraq and Turkey, who struggle to maintain their own culture and dignity.

RESEARCH OBJECTIVE: The main goal of this explorative study is to investigate the public perception of private healthcare providers in Kurdistan region in Iraq. Moreover, the research aims to test the questionnaire and research technique (face-to-face) interviews in terms of their usefulness and adequacy for a further representative survey, which is planned in the upcoming years. THE RESEARCH PROBLEM AND METHODS: The research problem is to analyze patients’ perception and satisfaction from healthcare services offered by private hospitals in Kurdistan region of Iraq. THE PROCESS OF ARGUMENTATION: Developing countries have an increasing difficulty in providing cheap and effective healthcare sector for the entire society. In this regard, the autonomous regions like Kurdistan are in a doublydisadvantaged position, as they have to overcome the problems of poor infrastructure, while designing a new health system, at the same time struggling with military conflict with ISIL. RESEARCH RESULT: The research result show surprising gaps in public knowledge about the private hospitals and their healthcare service quality. The study finds, among other, that the easiest way to improve patients’ satisfaction is to improve hygiene and cleaning standards in private hospitals. Although these findings are purely explorative, they should be taken into the account when designing a research project which should produce representative, reliable findings for the entire region. CONCLUSIONS, INNOVATION AND RECOMMENDATIONS: As there is no alternative to increase of the role of private providers in Kurdistan region, the regional authorities should monitor the quality of healthcare services offered by both public and private providers to ensure a reasonable standard of healthcare system. Thus, the further studies on healthcare market in Kurdistan should include comparisons between private and public providers.

Recently, with regard to the Middle East, Slovak and foreign media have focused on the situation in Syria. However, equally important is political development in Iraqi Kurdistan in which plebiscite in September 2017 showed that almost 90 percent of Kurds request independent Iraqi Kurdistan. According to many indicators and claims by geopolitical analysts, the conflict between Baghdad central government and Iraqi Kurds is growing and will escalate, what will lead to an increase of Iraqi Kurdish struggles to establish a state independent of Iraq. Our study, however, wants to point out to the fact that there are also opposing trends indicating of continual centralization of Iraq and the Kurdistan integration into the Iraqi state. Based on this analysis we criticize the thesis of American geopolitical theorists such as R. Peters the emergence of an independent Kurdistan.

This article presents an overview of the history the largest nation in the world without its own independent state. Nationalist aspirations of an approximately 30 million Kurds living within the borders of Turkey, Iran, Iraq, and Syria remain a factor of instability in the geostrategically important Middle East, especially due to the fact that Kurds inhabit areas with strategically important resources. The desire of many Kurds for statehood, or at least cultural autonomy, has led to an almost continuous series of Kurdish revolts since the creation of the modern Middle East state system following World War I. The Kurdish problem refers to the fear of the states in which the Kurds live that Kurdish demands will threaten and even destroy their territorial integrity, even though, as the author points out, the Kurds themselves are notoriously divided geographically, politically, linguistically, and tribally. The article is divided into parts, which are devoted to the origin of the Kurdish nation, as well as the history and the current situation of Kurds in Turkey, Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Europe (the European diaspora).Full text: http://bazhum.muzhp.pl/czasopismo/589/?idno=14760

The objectives of the “Settlement history of Iraqi Kurdistan” project include the identification and recording of archaeological sites and other heritage monuments across an area of more than 3000 km2 located on both banks of the Greater Zab river, north of Erbil. A full survey of the western bank was carried out over three field seasons, in 2013, 2014 and 2015 (leaving the Erbil/Haūler province to be studied in the next two seasons). To date, at least 147 archaeological sites dating from the early Neolithic Hassuna culture to late Ottoman times have been registered. Moreover, the project documented 39 architectural monuments, as well as the oldest rock reliefs in Mesopotamia dating from the mid 3rd millennium BC, located in the village of Gūnduk. Altogether 91 caves and rock shelters were visited in search of Paleolithic and Pre-Pottery Neolithic remains. The paper is an interim assessment of the results halfway into the project, showing the trends and illuminating gaps in the current knowledge.

This paper attempts to analyse independence aspirations of Iraqi Kurds. It considers issues of legal solutions used by Kurds in regard to institution of referendum. The paper analyses problems which hindered cooperation between Kurdistan Regional Government and Federal Government of Iraq. Moreover it highlights uniqueness of the region in lights of Iraqi constitutional solutions from 2005. The author puts forward a thesis that convening a referendum in 2017 was too hasty and refers to international opinion being a reaction to independence aspirations of Iraqi Kurds. Przedmiotem niniejszej analizy są dążenia niepodległościowe Kurdów irackich. Rozważaniom zostały poddane kwestie dotyczące rozwiązań prawnych związanych z wykorzystaniem przez Kurdów instytucji referendum. W artykule przeanalizowano problemy utrudniające współpracę między rządem Regionu Irackiego Kurdystanu a rządem federalnym Republiki Iraku. Uwypuklono także wyjątkowość tego regionu z perspektywy rozwiązań konstytucyjnych przyjętych w Iraku w 2005 r. W artykule postawiono tezę, że zorganizowanie głosowania ludowego w 2017 r. przez Kurdów było działaniem zbyt pochopnym. Odwołano się w nim także do międzynarodowej opinii, w tym europejskiej, będącej reakcją na dążenia niepodległościowe irackich Kurdów.

W artykule przedstawiono problem walki o niepodległość tureckich Kurdów na tle wspólnej historii obu narodów. Autorzy zaprezentowali genezę powstania i działalność Partii Pracujących Kurdystanu (PKK) uznanej za jedno z głównych ugrupowań terrorystycznych działających na obszarze Kurdystanu. Szczególną uwagę zwrócili na zagadnienie uzyskania przez nich niepodległości lub autonomii, w obliczu dążenia Republiki Tureckiej do związku z Unią Europejską. Mimo pewnych znaków wskazujących na dobrą wolę obu stron w dążeniu do rozwiązania kryzysu, autorzy wymieniają niechęć tureckich kół wojskowych do negocjacji z PKK oraz groźbę ewentualnego przewrotu wojskowego jako jedno z głównych zagrożeń dla kompromisowego rozwiązania „problemu kurdyjskiego”.

The article deals with the issues of the Turkish Kurds' struggle for independence with respect to the common history of both of the nations. The authors present the origins and activities of the Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK), one of the major terrorist organizations operating in southeast Turkey. Special focus is given to the issues concerning Kurds’ attempts to gain independence or widespread autonomy, especially in confrontation with Turkey’s aspirations to join the European Union. Despite some gestures of goodwill from both sides to solve the crisis, the authors mention the reluctance of Turkish military circles to negotiate with the PKK and a risk of a potential military coup as one of the main dangers which could threaten the compromised solution of the socalled Kurdish problem.
