TAU online course on the history of modern Israel
Prof. Eyal Naveh's course "The History of Modern Israel - From an Idea to a State" is now available on Coursera.com.
How did the State of Israel come to be? How is it that an idea, introduced in 19th century Europe, became a reality? And how does that reality prevail in the harsh complexities of the Middle East?
Presented by Professor Eyal Naveh, from the Zvi Yavetz School of Historical Studies, Lester and Sally Entin Faculty of Humanities, with additional units from Professor Asher Sussers' "The Emergence of the Modern Middle East", the course will take you on a journey through the history of Modern Israel. The first part of the course will explore: how did the 19th century idea of a Jewish state become a reality? The second part of the course will focus on the challenges of Israel as a sovereign state.
This course is self-paced, allowing students to participate at any time, as often as they wish. The online course will have subtitles in English and offer a proposed corriculum of 3 weeks of study, 1 hour per week.
