April 1: Professor M. Qasim Zaman (Princeton University), TBD.
Venue: Barker 110
The Middle East Beyond Borders (MEBB) workshop aims to foster an interdisciplinary community of scholars working on the past and present of the Middle East. It takes as its founding premise the idea that the “Middle East” as an object of inquiry must fundamentally engage notions of boundaries, mobility, and transformation. Our goal is to offer a platform for collaboration and discussion to all Middle East scholars at Harvard across a wide range of academic fields and disciplines. To date, our community has welcomed scholars from NELC, History, Middle Eastern Studies, Anthropology, the Study of Religion, Law, Art and Architecture, and more. During meetings, we typically workshop a polished dissertation chapter or prospectuses from graduate student.
