From its long-standing geopolitical significance to global trade routes, to its importance in the rise and consolidation of European power in the 19th and 20th centuries, to its more contemporary significance as a critical arena in which some of our most pressing political and security challenges play out, the Middle East is a region shaped by global webs of power and influence. Taking an interdisciplinary approach, explore the multi-scalar historical and contemporary forces and dynamics that have produced and continue to shape the Middle East, including colonialism and decolonization, oil and energy politics, wars, and revolutions and counterrevolutions, among other topics. Through engagement with a range of theoretical frameworks and literatures, engage in critical study of the forces, processes, and dynamics that have shaped the Middle East and its intimate entanglements with the global. ### requirements text Sophomore standing ### credits min 3 ### credits max 3 ### credit offering ids * 1272:416:027415 * 1272:504:027415 ### llm job id
