Beyond Borders: The History of the Arab-Israeli Conflict Pre-State through 1967 |
---|
This course provides students with a strong, text-based historical overview from the late nineteenth century through today. Course material is designed to encourage discussion and debate, and to challenge students to appreciate the basis of the conflicting historical claims made by all sides in the conflict. The complexity of the conflict forces students to grapple with issues of religion, culture, history, politics, economics, identity and survival—all reflected through primary sources, including newspaper articles, poetry, songs, government documents, speeches, photographs and memoirs. The 10-lesson course will provide students with new tools for understanding and critiquing texts and events as the conflict continues to unfold. Day: Thursdays, February 4 - May 13, 2021 Time: 7:00 - 8:30 pm Central via Zoom Faculty: Bill Greenberg |
