Workshop Summary
The Arab Uprisings in Comparative Perspective is a full day research workshop which will take place from 9:30am to 5:00pm on Friday, November 7th, 2014 in Founders Hall 111.
The workshop will bring a group of preeminent scholars together to present short papers on the dynamics of social mobilizations in the societies of the Arab Spring and beyond. The morning and afternoon sessions will be divided by a Lebanese style lunch, during which Dr. Marina Ottaway will deliver a keynote speech on the state of research on globalization and contentious politics.
This event builds upon ongoing work undertaken by a group of faculty and graduate students organized in the Project on Contentious Politics (PCP), based in the School of Conflict Analysis and Resolution (SCAR). Drs. Thomas Flores, Terrence Lyons, and Agnieszka Paczynska lead the group, which includes a year-long graduate seminar and a speakers’ series..
The Arab Uprisings in Comparative Perspective workshop is supported by Mason’s Center for Global Studies (CGS).
