How to Have a Constructive Conversation about the History of Israelis and Palestinians

November 18 @ 12:00 pm - 1:30 pm EST

In this session, Peter Krause, Associate Professor of Political Science at Boston College and Research Affiliate with the MIT Security Studies Program, will talk about how to have a constructive conversation on Israeli and Palestinian history and politics, and will help attendees understand the ongoing conflict in and around Israel and Gaza.

Topics will include the history of the Zionist and Palestinian national movements, as well as the causes and consequences of previous wars and peace processes between Israelis, Palestinians, and their Arab state neighbors. This session will provide attendees with strategies (such as sharing, but not comparing, pain; aiming to learn and not to win; calling in and not calling out; recognizing power dynamics) that they can use in their own conversations about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

Please RSVP online. Community members can also attend via Zoom (Meeting ID: 960 8420 1380 Passcode: 246437). Add this event directly to your calendar.

Krause has published books on navigating field researchcoercion in international politics, and the strategy and success of nationalist rebels in civil war. Forthcoming books examine how to have a constructive conversation about Israel and Palestine, and t which rebel groups take power after regime change.
