Western Hegemony and the Challenge of Wars and Terrorism

Abstract

Geopolitical Studies remains one of the primary fields of study at the Center for Islam and Global Affairs (CIGA), particularly as it relates to the changes and transformations within the Muslim World. The following two papers were originally presened at the first CIGA international conference by two prominent scholars. The first dealt with the impacts of Western, particularly American, hegemony on the Arab World by Prof. Richard Falk, while the second dealt with the Challenges of Wars and Terrorism by Prof. Flynt Leverett. It gives us great pleasure at CIGA to have such prominent scholars join our conversation on such important topics.Department for Geopolitical and Strategic Studies (GPSS)Center for Islam and Global Affairs (CIGA)
