Non-State Actors in the Middle East and North Africa: By examining the role of non-governmental organizations in the Islamic world, this course captures the complexity of conflicts in the region since the nineteenth century. Topics include the influence of European missionary schools during the era of Ottoman and Persian capitulations, indigenous business interests in the nation building period, international humanitarian organizations during twentieth century conflicts (i.e., Israel/ Palestine and Lebanon), as well as political parties and terrorist networks opposing regional states. Thus, through this course, students learn about the role non-state actors play in shaping politics and culture in the modern Islamic world.
