The Middle East in Global History – Global History in the Middle East

In this lecture series, we intend to explore how approaches from global history can be applied fruitfully to research on the Middle East. Moreover, we hope to add a Middle Eastern perspective to the history of the globalizing world, a perspective that is all too often left out. The three lecturers explore different facets of global entanglements in the Middle East and offer glimpses into their cutting-edge research.
