Demographics

Total population

In 1995, the Kurdish Human Rights Watch estimated that the Kurds in Istanbul numbered ca. 2 million.[1] In 1996, Servet Mutlu estimated that the Kurds were 8.16% (594,000) of Istanbul instead of the often stated 1.5 million.[2] In 1998, the German Foreign Ministry stated that there were 3 million Kurds in Istanbul.[2] American diplomat John Tirman estimated the Kurds in Istanbul to number 4 million people (1997).[3] According to another estimation, the Kurds in Istanbul, Ankara, Izmir and other big cities (not including those inside the "Kurdish provinces") constitute 35% of the total Turkish Kurd population.[4]

History

The first Kurdish cultural and political associations were established in Istanbul.[6] During the reign of Abdulhamid II (r. 1876–1909) the Kurds began producing literature on the condition of the Kurds in Istanbul.[7] In 1918, Kurdish intellectuals established the Association for the Rise of the Kurds in Istanbul.[8] In March 1995 Kurdish riots broke out in Istanbul.[9]

Clashes between pro-Kurdish demonstrators and Turkish police have repeatedly taken place in Istanbul; such events occurred in 2011,[10] 2016,[11] and 2018.[12]

Political views
