Abstract	:	This ethnographic research examines the role of Islam in modern Kurdish society in Iraq and Turkey. The major findings are that despite their commonalities, Kurdish national narratives are undermined by the factionalism and sectarianism woven throughout the histories of Islam and Kurdish relations in the region. The result of this is a conflict-ridden codependency between secular and Islamist parties and identities which includes a contest for authority over national narratives. The research also demonstrates how specific Western masculine archetypes have been subsumed into local masculine ideation, influencing the content and format of propaganda used in these contests.
