1 Dr. Randall S. Geller The Making of the Modern Middle East NEJS 185B M, T, Th 11a.m. 1:30 p.m. (Please note this is a preliminary syllabus. We may alter it based on student input and interests; for example, we may rely more on two textbooks rather than a wide variety of articles. We ll discuss options the first day of class. Everything we read will be accessible online, and only books will be necessary for purchase. Finally, we will probably be able to get Ebrary versions of books assigned to the Brandeis Library so you may not have to buy anything). One hundred years ago, the borders of modern Middle Eastern states did not exist. With the conclusion of World War I in 1918, however, the European powers divided up the territories of the former Ottoman Empire and created new borders, new states and new conflicts. Beginning c. 1918, we will explore the development of each Middle Eastern country s unique identity and history and how Middle Eastern countries interact with one another, and with the outside world, today. In this context we will explore the differences between Sunnis and Shiis, Middle Eastern minorities such as Druze, Christians, Alawis, and Ismailis, and the differences between Arabs, Turks, Persians and Kurds. The role of oil, the emergence of the Arab- Israeli conflict, the growth and development of political Islam, and the causes and effects of the turmoil in the Arab world, Iran, and Turkey in the last several years will all be considered as part of this class. The class will include extensive readings, lectures, and class discussions, and relevant video footage will be used to illuminate the region s unique history and political style. Special attention will be given to ethnic and/or religious minorities in each Middle Eastern country under investigation in this class. We will use a textbook, William L. Cleveland and Martin P. Bunton s A History of the Modern Middle East (Westview Press, th edition) as well as a variety of articles from academic journals and chapters from books. Newspaper and/or magazine articles of contemporary significance and relevance will be suggested as well as we approach a particular week s assignment. As the semester progresses inevitably more time is spent on certain topics, and less so on others. This means that some times we will not stick precisely to the syllabus as currently constituted; we may spend more time on a particular country than intended based on student interest as well as based on the course of contemporary events. Thus the syllabus may be slightly adjusted to reflect such minor changes as the semester unfolds. This is to be expected and you will always be informed of any changes several weeks before they happen. Class requirements will include 2 papers of about 5-7 pages each, a final exam, and class participation. Attendance in class is important and you are strongly
2 encouraged to be attend every class, if possible. Since it s the summer office hours are pretty informal and we can meet right after class, for as long as you like or need, or by appointment. Your grade will be computed on the following basis: two papers of about 5-7 pages each, a short answer final exam, and class participation. Each paper will be worth 25% of the grade, the final exam is worth 30% of the final grade, and class participation is worth 20% of your final grade. Papers should be double- spaced and in 12 point format. Essays should include citations from the assigned sources the Cleveland and Bunton book, the assigned articles, and class lectures. When citing class lectures, please provide the date of the lecture as well as the lecturer s name (myself). As a general rule, 2 to 3 citations per page should suffice. Our main text will be William L. Cleveland and Martin P. Bunton s A History of the Modern Middle East (Boulder: Westview Press, 2012). It is highly recommended to keep up with news about the contemporary Middle East. Articles will be discussed in class on a regular basis. Some newspapers/websites to keep track of might include The New York Times and the Washington Post from the U.S., The Daily Star (Lebanon), Al- Ahram (Egypt), and Ha aretz and the Jerusalem Post (Israel). There are, of course, many others as well. The Middle East news site Al- Monitor is highly recommended.
