"""Dr. Devres's study does not only make available new materials on the destruction of the Dersim region in the 1930s, but also sheds a new light on the Kemalist Republic's policies determined by radical nationalism, Social-Darwinism, and a colonial vision defining the Turkish nation as a civilizing nation struggling with the 'uncivilized', 'feudal' and 'backward' Kurdishness."" --Hamit Bozarslan, �cole des Hautes �tudes en Sciences Sociales"
