Amazing course. Grasping current development in the region requires a solid understanding of its historical context and this course has achieved the standards.

I was really shoked that i was unable to access the second part of this course: The Emergence of The Modern Middle East - Part II. one of the best courses.

The course offers great ideas to me instead of facts that can be easily checked. All history are contemporary history. Ideas shape and change the socitey.

Professor Susser organized a very well done course on a topic with very complex regional dynamics. In addition, the notes for each module were excellent!

It was an incredible syllabus and i learned a lot. The teacher was great, contextualizing everything and explaining all the concepts of the middle east.

This course provided me exactly the level of detail and information I was hoping for regarding an understanding of the history of the middle east.

It explains everything so well and even uf I find the history of the Middle East, kind of complicated, with this course I got a great approach.
