Special Subject: Israel–US Special Relations and the New Diplomatic History Part B (V1472B)

15 credits, Level 6

Spring teaching

In this module, we will:

  • focus on the ideas and theories that helped create the special relationship between the two nations.
  • study how these ideas became policies and how the special relationship developed over time.
  • explore the forces that shaped the special relationship, looking beyond just government officials and national interests
  • examine how religion, shared values, and history built and sustained this connection
  • explore how interactions in areas like security, military, economics, trade, culture, and tourism strengthened the bond.

 

We regularly review our modules to incorporate student feedback, staff expertise, as well as the latest research and teaching methodology. We’re planning to run these modules in the academic year 2021/22. However, there may be changes to these modules in response to feedback, staff availability, student demand or updates to our curriculum.

We’ll make sure to let you know of any material changes to modules at the earliest opportunity.
