Author: Ahmet Kerim Gültekin
Place of publication: Germany
Publisher: Leipzig University
Release date: 2019
This paper examines the transformation dynamics within Kurdish Alevi communities, with a focus on the increasing socio-political and religious roles of talips. It explores the historical context of these communities, particularly noting the impact of large-scale destruction during the 20th century that disrupted traditional socio-religious structures. The analysis highlights how talips have risen to prominence in organizing religious practices and identity politics, fostering a reformation of Alevi religious identity influenced by contemporary issues such as gender equality and secularism. Special attention is given to the significance of the Tunceli (Dersim) region in the revival of Kurdish Alevism and the evolving role of sacred places in maintaining cultural identity.[1]
