HIST178 CM - Nations, Nationalisms, and the Global Modern Middle EastThis course explores something we take for granted: the existence of nation-states and the role that nationalism plays in shaping global events. Our focus is on how state systems in the Middle East and North Africa emerged from a world of empires and imperialism, and we will use historical analysis to explore diverse ideological movements, the role of gender in defining national agendas, debates concerning constitutionalism and legal definitions of state and citizenship, the relationship between natural resources and forms of government, models of counterinsurgency and the "global war on terror" as a framework for foreign intervention and internal state policy, and the possibility for resistance and social activism in the face of new technologies for state surveillance.Offered: Occasionally Credit: 1 Course Number: HIST178 CM
