	FACTORS FOR COOPERATION AND CONFLICT IN SOUTHERN KURDISTAN
		Religious cleavages that exist within Kurdish society among the Sunni, Shiite, Ahli- Haqq, Yezidi, Shabak and other religious convictions might become an explosive source of future conflict at certain times despite the long history of religious pluralism and tolerance in Kurdistan.

		The shift from the former to the latter identity in Kurdistan is accelerating, and seems destined to totally submerge the residual Pahlawani-Yazdani identity of the older Kurdistan.

		The poets, essayists and novelists gathered around the Kurdish PEN Centre dream of the world in which the Kurds and their neighbours can live in peace and be engaged in cultural exchange.
		We strongly believe that the people speaking and writing in main Kurdish dialects of North- and South Kurmandji, Zazaki, Hewrami and Luri as well as Christians, Jews and indigenous religious communities of the Yezidis, Kakais and Zoroastrians together constituting the Kurdish nation deserve the right of self-determination.
		Only thus we are able to develop our ancient culture.
