  • Journey to Turkey: a Survey of Culture, Economics and Politics of Turkey
    IAS 3950.026 Journey to Turkey: A Survey of Culture, Economics and Politics of Turkey IAS 3950 Journey to Turkey: A Survey of Culture, Economics and Politics of Turkey Course duration: May 19 – June 6, 2015 Instructor: Firat Demir; Office: CCD1, Room: 436; Office hours: By appointment; Tel. 325-5844; E-mail: [email protected] 1. Course Objective The Anatolian Peninsula that connects Asia and Europe has been at the epicenter of many empires and civilizations for thousands of years. Any attempt to understand the culture, institutions and many of the current challenges present in modern Turkey should begin with the study of these civilizations, which have contributed immensely to the development of the Western and Asian civilizations. After all, this is the place where the words Asia and Europe were coined and where the very first monumental structures in history were built (Gobeklitepe, dating back to 10000 BC). Also, I should mention that the father of modern history, Herodotus was a native of Turkey (a title first conferred by Cicero). This course is comparative and interdisciplinary in nature and crosses multiple disciplines including arts, sociology, cultural studies, history, urban planning, economics, and politics. We will constantly compare and contrast the past and the present, East and the West, Turkey and Europe, modern and archaic, secular and religious, democratic and authoritarian, etc. A special attention will be paid to challenge students’ pre-conceived notions, opinions, perspectives and attitudes towards Western vs. Non-Western civilizations, particularly so for those involving the Middle East and Europe. During our journey, we will visit thousand + years old churches, synagogues, mosques, ancient temples, palaces, cities, monuments as well as the most exquisite examples of modern art, and perhaps not so exquisite examples of modern architecture.

  • Imagining Cascadia
    Imagining Cascadia: Bioregionalism as Environmental Culture in the Pacific Northwest Ingeborg Husbyn Aarsand A thesis presented to The Department of Literature, Area Studies, and European Languages North American Area Studies Faculty of Humanities Advisor: Mark Luccarelli In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the MA degree UNIVERSITY OF OSLO Fall 2013 Author: Ingeborg Husbyn Aarsand Title: Imagining Cascadia: Bioregionalism as Environmental Culture in the Pacific Northwest 2013 http://www.duo.uio.no/ Print: Reprosentralen, University of Oslo II Abstract This thesis discusses the usefulness of the concept of bioregionalism as a social and cultural environmental practice, and as a response to the environmental crisis of our time. The thesis addresses an important issue in environmental discourse by considering whether bioregionalism’s place-based approach with its ethic of “reinhabitation” could challenge mainstream environmentalism. The thesis raises a critique of today’s professionalized and technocratic environmental movement. This thesis will argue that bioregional thinking evokes agrarianism and is indeed useful, because it can offer a “practical utopian” answer to the current environmental catastrophe. It is pragmatic, regionally specific, and reinforces the concept of place as central to the environmental discourse and debate. Ecological utopias have a role to play in environmental thinking because of their transformational power and pragmatic aspects. This thesis will show how the imagined bioregion of “Cascadia” is being constituted in different cultural representations of place, such as narratives about imagined places in music, film, and literature, and how this in turn is “placemaking.” This thesis argues that cultural representations of “place,” such as narratives about imagined recovery of places, can bring about both desperately needed inspiration for us humans to find local solutions to a global environmental crisis.

  • Responding to Terrorist Attacks Trends in European Response Scenarios INFORMATION CUTOFF DATE: October 6, 2008
    FOR OFFICIAL USE ONLY Special Analysis Responding to Terrorist Attacks Trends in European Response Scenarios INFORMATION CUTOFF DATE: October 6, 2008 NYPD Counterterrorism Bureau Terrorism Threat Analysis Group EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This paper analyzes three high-profile European case studies of post-9/11 terrorist attacks (Istanbul [2003], Madrid [2004], and London [2005]). It also examines targeting and tactical information gleaned from several failed/foiled plots in Europe. Although the general findings of this paper can be applied to any type of large scale terrorist attack, this study focuses on those attacks perpetrated by Muslim extremists since this subset currently constitutes the most prominent terrorist threat to the U.S. The objectives of this paper are to: • Concisely present the major challenges that European emergency responders faced following significant acts of terrorism in the post-9/11 era; • Assess how those challenges hindered response and rescue operations; • Identify ways in which emergency responders reacted to these challenges, both expected and unforeseen; • Utilize case studies of several foiled/failed plots in Europe to assess burgeoning operational risks to emergency responders; • Highlight implications of these trends for domestic security, particularly New York City This paper seeks to analyze trends in the responses to major terrorist attacks in the post- 9/11 era in cities similar to New York City. The cities analyzed in this report are comparable in numerous ways, but the most important similarity is that
