Memories......... Wish I could audit....... Starved for some intellectual stimulation..... Dr Seuss is not cutting it. ;) "There is space still available in SIS 419.003/SIS 619.003, Kurds and their Neighbors: Identity and Politics in the Middle East. This class will focus on ethno-political tensions and conflicts in the Middle East, with particular focus on the Kurds as an identity group. The goal is to introduce students to Kurdish issues in the region, and the impact of factors such as the creation of the nation state, foreign influences, regional politics, nationalist movements, tribal loyalties, etc. The course will focus on Kurdish history and nationalist movements, as well as their political parties and groups. Special attention will be paid to the Kurdish question and Kurdish politics in Iraq, Iran, Turkey and Syria. These topics will be addressed with an eye on the role of foreign powers and regional interactions. The course will meet Wednesdays from 8:10 pm - 10:40 pm."
