Professor Derek J. Penslar Inaugural Lecture: What is Israel Studies?

3 June 2014, 5:30 pm

Speaker(s): Professor Derek J. Penslar, Stanley Lewis Professor of Israel Studies

Convenor(s):

Over the past decade, faculty positions in Israel Studies have been created at universities throughout the English-speaking world. This burst of growth has been fed in part by serious academic interest in a small yet highly visible country and in part by political controversies surrounding the country and the way it is represented on university campuses. The proliferation of Israel Studies positions has, ironically, only intensified those controversies. This lecture will discuss what it means for Israel Studies to be an academic discipline and how it can best be integrated into the university environment. The lecture will demonstrate the contributions Israel Studies can make to public discussion about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and its possible resolution. At the same time, it argues that scholarship on Israel must have a life of its own and must not be boxed in by political dictates or mobilized in the service of a moral cause.

International Conference: Global Conflict and Conflict Management: Israel/Palestine and Beyond

18 May 2014, 8:45 am

Speaker(s):

Convenor(s): Professor Derek J. Penslar, Stanley Lewis Professor of Israel Studies, & Fellow of St. Anne's College, University of Oxford, et al.

Since the signing of the Oslo accords, it has generally been assumed within the international community that the Israel-Palestine conflict would be resolved through the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside of Israel. That scenario has not, however, come to pass, and it is not clear if partition might occur, and if not, what scenario might take its place. This conference will explore the history and legacy of partition on a global scale as well as other attempts to resolve or manage nationality conflict over the past century. Focusing on the mechanisms and aftermath of nationality conflict, this two-day international conference will bring together scholars from different disciplines and from around the world to discuss the Israel-Palestinian question via a comparative perspective.
