Conference on Libya's Histories
CENTER FOR MIDDLE EASTERN STUDIES
FALL 2009 CONFERENCE
WRITING AND SPEAKING LIBYA'S HISTORIES:
Historiography of Modern and Contemporary Libya
November 13-14, 2009
Sultan Conference Room
340 Stephens Hall
Center for Middle Eastern Studies
Of all the formerly colonized nations in the region, Libya became independent with a notable paucity of written history.
This situation has changed in the intervening decades, but Libya’s severe political isolation has translated into a near-absence
of scholarly contact with U.S. scholars. This conference is meant to participate in correcting this situation, by facilitating exchange
and forging longer-term working relationships between American and Libyan scholars.
A keynote address will be given by Dr. Muhammad Jerary, National Center for Archives and Historical Studies, Tripoli
“Historical Studies in Libya (from the 16th Century till the Present Time): Present Difficulties and Future Prospects”
Other speakers include:
- Professor Zahi Mogherbi, Political Science, Garyounis University, Benghazi
“Social Change, Regime Performance and the Radicalization of
Politics: the Case of Libya”
- Professor Amal Obeidi, Political Science, Garyounis University, Benghazi
“Women and the Academic Research in the Libyan Universities:
Analysis Study of the MA Thesis at the Faculty of Economics
1990-2009”
- Lecture presented by Professor Zahi Mogherbi
- Professor Ali Abdullatif Ahmida, Political Science, University of New England
“Engaging Modernity: Pedagogy and Urbanization as viewed by two
Libyan intellectuals during the 20th Century”
- Professor Nayla Kabazi Muntasser, Art History, Trinity University, San Antonio
“Modern Historiography and Ancient Libya: Lepcis Magna as a Case
Study”
