Relations\u201d is being offered by the School of Humanities, Social Sciences and Economics of the University Centre of International Programmes of Studies of the International Hellenic University.<\/p>\n<p>The programme is based on an interdisciplinary approach to the study of the history and cultures of the Black Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean regions, offering two specialization streams: The \u201cArchaeology and Cultures\u201d Stream and the \u201cInternational Relations and History\u201d Stream.<\/p>\n<p>The Black Sea region and the Eastern Mediterranean basin with their special geophysical and cultural characteristics, are gaining significance as a geopolitical link between Europe and Asia. The important natural resources and the crucial position of these regions at the hub of international routes have aroused the interest of many nations over the ages, leading to numerous events of great cultural and historical significance. The Black Sea and the Eastern Mediterranean constitute two great international gateways of considerable importance for Europe as well as for Asia and the East. Over the last few decades, research institutions and university departments all over the world have promoted research programmes concentrating on these regions with such rich scientific material.<\/p>\n<p>The courses are taught exclusively in English. The academics teaching on the programme come from universities both abroad and in Greece.<\/p>\n<p>With its two streams on \u201cArchaeology and Cultures\u201d and \u201cInternational Relations and History\u201d, the MA in \u201cBlack Sea and Eastern Mediterranean Studies: Culture and International Relations\u201d provides specialized education in diverse areas of interest such as Archaeology, Ethnography, Historical Geography, Art, Religion, Mythology, History, International Relations, Politics and Diplomacy.

The main goal of this course is the examination of archaeological data at the 3rd and 2nd millennium BC at the Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean regions (NE Aegean, Cyclades, Crete and mainland Greece) along with the interactions of cultures in the wider East Mediterranean basin. The course is particularly concerned with issues relating to the habitation and the environment, land use and survival strategies, data settlements and material culture, the economy and trade, ideology and burial practices, management and social organization. These issues are approached mainly through archaeological data and recent archaeological finds in relation to the historical and social background of the Neolithic period, Bronze Age and Iron Age in each geographical unit presenting the central debates in the Black Sea and the Mediterranean prehistory research. In addition, the ancient civilizations of the Near East\u2013Egypt, Assyria, Babylonia, the Hittites, and Canaanites will be examined.

The comparative mythology, that is, the systematic comparison of myths from different cultures, seeks to discover underlying themes that are common to the myths of multiple cultures. Myths of the Black Sea region, both from the Greek and the local cultures shall be thoroughly examined in order to define their origin and their possible connection with actual historical events (Colonisation), distorted over many retellings. There will also be an approach to the religious life of the Black Sea population in Hellenistic and Roman times, through the study of Greek and local cults (Dionysus and Orpheus in Thrace, Apollo and Artemis in the Tauris Peninsula, Cybele\/Mother of God, Attis and other Eastern deities, Egyptian cults). According to the myth-ritual theory, a myth is closely tied to rituals and it also provides a religious experience. This approach will be based on the study of written sources (inscriptions, literary sources) and archaeological evidence (sanctuaries, shrines, temples, votive offerings, religious articles).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learning outcomes<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Upon completing the course, the students will have gained:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>knowledge on the legends of Greek mythology referred to or linked to the Black Sea region<\/li>\n<li>ability to interpret these myths based on historical events, such as the Greek colonisation, the foundation of cities etc.<\/li>\n<li>knowledge of which Greek and Eastern deities were worshiped in different parts of the Black Sea area during antiquity<\/li>\n<li>knowledge on the known ancient sacral monuments of the Black Sea area, the most important published worship objects, such as votive offerings found there, and the texts of the ancient sources referring to the worship of deities and worship practices in the Black Sea region<\/li>\n<li>ability to interpret these myths in conjunction to historical events, e.g. the Greek Colonisation, the foundation of cities, etc.<\/li>\n<li>knowledge on religions and deity\/ hero cults related to the Black Sea area<\/li>\n<li>ability to identify the major sacral monuments from the Black Sea settlements, important religious artefacts (e.g. votive offerings), discovered during excavations and published.

The course initially focuses on the Soviet Union and the \u201cNationalities question\u201d, the national delineation policies followed by Moscow and the formations of the Ukrainian SSR and the Transcaucasian SFSR, until the latter\u2019s subsequent dissolution in 1936 with the Soviet Constitution. The formations of the nation-states of Georgian SSR, Armenian SSR and Azerbaijan SSR is closely examined, together with their inherent problematic issues that would provoke local nationalisms in the future. Next, the course passes into concurrent times by examining the 2008 Russo-Georgian War, linking it with the deeper historical causes for its outbreak. The military operations are presented briefly together with an analysis of the consequences on Georgia itself and on the wider international and geopolitical level. Following the Russo-Georgian war, the course looks at the other major conflict that afflicts the region of South Caucasus: The Azero-Armenian conflict over Nagorno-Karabakh (1st war in 1988-1994 and 2nd war in 2020) is still an open wound for the region and one that needs to be studied as a case where local narratives collide with Great Power policies in the region. The course also examines the other great war that broke out within the post-Soviet space, between Ukraine and Russia, since 2014, and particularly after its flare-up, in 2022. As in the case of the Russo-Georgian War, the deepest causes are analyzed and discussed with the students together with the wider consequences in international relations. The course also looks at another great clash of nationalisms, this time not in post-soviet space but in the area of the Eastern Mediterranean. A background of the Graeco-Turkish wars is provided to the students since the independence of the Greek state in 1830 and the invasion of Cyprus is discussed. The students become familiar with the interests of the Great Powers over the island of Cyprus and become aware of how the discovery of natural resources in the area turned the Eastern Mediterranean into a Sea of Contention between Greece, Turkey and Cyprus.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-7dedb52fe9a40bccb fusion-toggle-no-divider fusion-toggle-boxed-mode\" style=\"--awb-title-color:#007193;--awb-content-color:#1c3f65;\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_7dedb52fe9a40bccb\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"7dedb52fe9a40bccb\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-1418-3\" data-target=\"#7dedb52fe9a40bccb\" href=\"#7dedb52fe9a40bccb\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">War and Revolution in the Middle East: From the Arab-Israeli Conflict to the Arab Spring<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"7dedb52fe9a40bccb\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" aria-labelledby=\"toggle_7dedb52fe9a40bccb\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p>The course begins with an examination of the awakening of Arab nationalism, on the one hand, and Zionism, on the other, in the last quarter of the 19th c., both in Europe and in the Ottoman Empire and of the position the lands of Israel\/Palestine had it in their respective narratives. It then looks at the period of the British mandate and rule in Jerusalem and the adjacent areas, from the Balfour declaration to its end, after WWII. It is during this period that nationalist militant groups on both sides are formed and the first international decision (UN Resolution 181) is made, to nationally delineate the lands of Palestine. With the British withdrawal in 1948 the armed conflict begins, with the first war setting the foundations of the state of Israel. The success of the latter questions the philosophical premises of the secular Arab nationalist movements together with their stance towards the West. The period of decolonization of the region signaled the ever increasing influence of the US and the rising tensions between Arab and Zionist movements in the area. The latter peaked on multiple occasions (1967, 1973 wars), while the Soviet Union tried to take advantage of the rift between Arab nationalism and western policies in the region. The failed attempts made by secular autocratic regimes in the Arab world to address social conditions and to roll-back Israeli gains in the region gradually brought to the surface Islamic political movements, which grappled with social issues of the Arab world and with the issue of Israel\u2019s policies in Palestine. This Islamic reaction peaked in the late 2000s and throughout the 2010s and was precipitated by a revolution, initiated by progressive secular Arab movements, which toppled the previous autocratic but secular regimes in the Arab world and paved the way for the temporary prevalence of the better organized Islamic movements, across the region.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-bec0bcef357a100cb fusion-toggle-no-divider fusion-toggle-boxed-mode\" style=\"--awb-title-color:#007193;--awb-content-color:#1c3f65;\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_bec0bcef357a100cb\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"bec0bcef357a100cb\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-1418-3\" data-target=\"#bec0bcef357a100cb\" href=\"#bec0bcef357a100cb\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">The Hellenism in the Black Sea countries<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"bec0bcef357a100cb\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" aria-labelledby=\"toggle_bec0bcef357a100cb\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p>The course examines the historically rich Hellenic heritage of the Greek people in the Black Sea area, mostly focusing on the thriving political, social and economic activities of the Greeks in the cities of southern Russia since the 18th century, and the respective topics in the Pontus area.

What is the role of external forces in the violent past of this region and what are the responsibilities of local elites in preserving such rivalries?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Learning outcomes:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Upon completing the course, the students will have gained:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>knowledge of the basic theoretical and analytical concepts of the study of violence and conflict<\/li>\n<li>familiarity with the geographic, demographic, and historical consequences of the genocidal conflicts and ethnic cleansing of the Black Sea and Eastern Mediterranean. area during the modern period and<\/li>\n<li>ability to use this knowledge to explain the status of these regions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default panel-08d8cd7d52d5ac292 fusion-toggle-no-divider fusion-toggle-boxed-mode\" style=\"--awb-title-color:#007193;--awb-content-color:#1c3f65;\"><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\" id=\"toggle_08d8cd7d52d5ac292\"><a aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"08d8cd7d52d5ac292\" role=\"button\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-parent=\"#accordion-1418-3\" data-target=\"#08d8cd7d52d5ac292\" href=\"#08d8cd7d52d5ac292\"><span class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box active-icon awb-icon-minus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><i class=\"fa-fusion-box inactive-icon awb-icon-plus\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/span><span class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">Archival Research and Internship in Historical Archives<\/span><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"08d8cd7d52d5ac292\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse \" aria-labelledby=\"toggle_08d8cd7d52d5ac292\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content fusion-clearfix\">\n<p>Students will undertake a three-month practical internship in relevant historical archives conducting original historical research or assessing and classifying already existing archival sources.
