Informations

Descriptif

This undergraduate course is designed as an introduction to one of the most debated issues in contemporary history. It does not pretend to cover all the complex and multi-faceted developments of the Israeli-Arab conflict, but it is dedicated to the understanding, description and interpretation of the various phases of the so-called “Palestinian question”. Each two-hour session will address one critical period of such a dense historical cycle, with compulsory readings in order, for the students, to be best prepared before each class. Specific times for Q and A will be allocated during each session.

Mode de validation

Course validation:

  • 1 midterm book review (30% of course mark)
  • 1 final exam (70% of course mark), to be held on campus in December
