1 Islam and Politics (Winter 2017) ISLA 210 1:30pm-2:25pm Arts W-120 Associate Professor Khalid Mustafa Medani Political Science and Islamic Studies Office Hours: Wednesdays 3-5pm Location: 319 Leacock Building Course Description This course is designed as an introductory overview of the study of Muslim Societies with an emphasis on the relationship between Islam and Politics. The course begins by critically examining current debates used to study the relationship between Islam and politics in both policy and academic circles including recent developments associated with the uprisings in the Arab world and their aftermath. We will then undertake a broad overview of the different analytical approaches used to study Islamic politics across different countries in both its moderate as well as militant variety. Specifically, we will consider the merits and deficiencies of the cultural, political economy and social movement perspectives utilized to understand political Islam. The second section of the course examines the trajectory of Islamist movements in the Middle East, Africa as well as the phenomenon of transnational Islamic radicalism. The final part of the course focuses on some of the causes (e.g. the cold war, geo-political rivalries) of transnational Islamist activism, including the emergence of ISIS, and the consequences of the war on international terrorism for the West as well as Muslim societies. COURSE REQUIRMENTS Assessment Research Paper 35% Due Date: April 5 th Midterm: 20% Due Date: February 22 nd Final Take Home Exam 25% Due Date: April 13 th Conference Participation 20% Note: The research paper must be between pages and is due April 5 th. Late papers will lose 5 points per day, including weekends. Extensions will be granted only in exceptional circumstances, with a medical note. Instructions for the final exam will be provided on MyCourses. The exam must be handed in by 4pm on Thursday, April 13th at the Institute of Islamic Studies on the 3 rd floor of Morris Hall. Attendance and participation in conferences are required and worth 20% of the final grade. Term Paper: A major objective of this course is to have students improve their research, analytical and writing skills through the development of an original research paper related to the topic of this course. The research question must be narrow but based on comparing and contrasting approaches to the study of political Islam (i.e. cultural, political-economy, social
2 movement theory, etc.). Students can either choose to study a particular country or compare two or more Islamist movements across cases. Note: Each student must individually schedule a meeting with the TA or the instructor to discuss a research question before writing the paper. The paper should be between 10 to 15 double spaced pages and no longer. Class Policies Paper Policy: Late papers will be penalized at the rate of 1/3 grade per day (e.g. an A- will be downgraded to a B+). All papers should be titled. Papers must be typed, double spaced with oneinch margins, twelve point font. Extensions will not be granted. Exam Policy: The midterm must be taken at the announced date and time. Office Hours: Students are strongly encouraged to come to office hours with or without specific questions. I am available at regular office hours as well as by appointment. Kindly schedule an appointment with your TA to discuss research paper proposals as soon as possible. Final Grades: Students are required to complete all assigned course work in order to receive a passing grade. No incompletes will be given except in cases of genuine emergency.
