Professors Edy Kaufman and Manuel Hassassian
celebrate 20th Team-Teaching Anniversary at UMD this Second Summer 2014
Session. Sponsored by GVPT, CIDCM and ISRL, the duo will be continuing their
partnership in GVPT309X: Conflict Resolution – The Israeli/Palestinian
Experiment. This course serves as a groundbreaking interactive immersion that
provides exploration of a range of perspectives, including contending
historical and political views. These views inform analysis of a variety of
topics including Jerusalem, refugees, settlements, water rights, border
disputes and security concerns.
Since their academic partnership in 1992, Professors
Kaufman and Hassassian have sought to explore and expound on the dynamics of
the conflict while providing open and honest dialogue about the issues at hand.
The team-teaching format provides both Jewish and Arab perspectives and a
unique educational forum for students that has been perfected over the course
of the partnership. The course will meet from August 4th to August 22nd [3
credits] on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 6-9:20 pm in TYD 1101.
