Kurdish Rojava, Autonomous Administration of North East Syria: propaganda or successful institutional experiment?

15th SeSaMO Conference – University of Naples L’Orientale (22–24 June 2022)
Panel proposed by Davide Grasso and Andrea Novellis.

The panel discusses the nature and evolution of the Autonomous Administration of North East Syria (AANES), moving beyond polarised views that frame it as mere propaganda or as a fully successful institutional experiment. It encourages socio‑political, legal, and institutional analyses of AANES policies, internal dynamics, and regional relations.
