PSC 402 - Intern Relations Middle East

Institution:

University of New England

Subject:

Political Science

Description:

This course focuses on a number of interrelated themes: Great Power involvement in the Middle East (imperialism, the Cold War and its end, etc.); Arab-Israeli conflict and "the peace process"; inter-Arab conflict and cooperation; the external relations on Turkey and Iran; and the policies of oil and of "Islamic fundamentalism." How are these themes related to one another and do they add up to a definable Middle East subsystem of the international system? What are the linkages between the domestic politics and external relations of states in the region? Emphasis is the past decade, but this period will be related to the century that preceded it.
