Dear friends,

We have published a new article on REDWeb -

*Local elections in Turkey: moving with and towards radical democracy
<https://radicalecologicaldemocracy.org/local-elections-in-turkey-moving-with-and-towards-radical-democracy/>*

Turkey held its local government elections this year in March. In a major
blow to President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan’s hold on Turkish politics, his
ruling Justice and Development Party (AKP) faced its biggest electoral
defeat in two decades. The main opposition party, the Republican People’s
Party (CHP), won seats in 36 out of 81 provinces and claimed mayoral
victories in the five biggest cities of Turkey.

In our latest article
<https://radicalecologicaldemocracy.org/local-elections-in-turkey-moving-with-and-towards-radical-democracy/>,
Ayfer Ekin analyses the implications of the election results, reflecting on
the ongoing Kurdish resistance against authoritarianism and the
possibility for alternatives to the nation-state structure in the region.

Please do have a read and share it with your networks.
