On Tuesday, 26th October, the W.F. Albright
Institute of Archaeological Research (AIAR) will host the "SSRC
Collaborative Faculty Research Group," composed of a group
of Israeli, Palestinian, European and American researchers.
The group will discuss socio-religious movements in Israeli
and Palestinian societies focusing on the project, "Socio-Religious
Movements and Transformation of Political Community: Israel,
Palestine and Beyond." This is a multi-year project that will result
in at least one edited volume. The meeting at AIAR is the third
in a series that began at the European University Institute
in October 2001, and continued at UC Irvine, California in
November 2002.
The organizer of the project is Mark Levine,
a Professor of Middle Eastern History at UC Irvine and a former
Albright SSRC Fellow in 1996-97. |
