Title: Nationalism and Ethnic Conflict: Middle East
Description: This course provides an overview of theories of nationalism and ethnic conflict, focusing on their concrete manifestations in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). The first part examines nationalism and nation-building policies in the Middle Eastern context. In the second part, theories of identity formation and conflict will be analyzed through discussion of concrete cases from the MENA region. We'll study the basic minorities of the MENA region, and their relationship with the respective states as well as examples of communal conflict. The course concludes with proposals for conflict prevention and reconciliation.
