Course Syllabus
Abstract
The main aim of the course “Emergence of the modern Middle East – Part 1” is to provide students with a full and systematic review for the emergence of the modern states and borders in the Middle East from the fall of the Ottoman Empire, at the end of the First World War to the present. The course is taught at the 4th year in the 3rd module.
Learning Objectives
- Analyzing the Ottoman legacy in the region and the Western imperial impact on the creation of the Arab state system. Learning the processes of rise and retreat of Arab nationalism, the problems of internal cohesion of the Arab states, issues of religion and state, and the evolution of Islamist politics.
Expected Learning Outcomes
- Carrying out analysis of the Ottoman Empire and Egypt in the context of Islamic responses to the crisis of modernity as a result of the inherent tension between faith and secularism.
- Describing the rise of nationalism in the Middle East, as it became a much more acceptable idea in the late 19th and early 20th century among an intellectual, elitist, urban minority.
- Following the processes of creating the Middle East state system in accordance with British and French designs after the First World War.
- Learning the basic data about the 19th-century Middle East, the structure of its society and economy as well as the dynamics of its politics.
- Review on the fate of the Ottoman Empire and the balance of power in Europe.
- Understanding the forces and the processes of modernity and tradition in the Middle East, asthe filtering of European ideas into the Middle East engendered a process of reform in the region throughout much of the 19th century.
