Expertise and Activity Statement |
Dr. Perry received his Ph.D. in Foreign (International) Affairs at the
University of Virginia and did postdoctoral work in Oriental (Middle Eastern)
Studies at Princeton University. He has made several trips to various parts of
the Middle East and taught two years at the American University in Cairo. The
author of many books and articles on Middle Eastern topics ranging from
religiopolitical institutions and movements to the question of Palestine, he
emphasizes the interdisciplinary character of his work, and indeed his best
known book is a widely used text in Middle Eastern history that is now in its
second edition. Much of his current work focuses on the Middle Eastern
experience with democracy, and this has induced him to deal more broadly with
conditions favorable to democracy worldwide as well as with other theoretical
aspects of comparative politics.
Dr. Perry teaches several courses specifically on the Middle East and others dealing more generally with international relations and comparative politics. |
