SUMMARY;LANGUAGE=en-us:"CAS\/MillerComm Lecture: \"What Varies and What Does Not Across Civil Wars: Comparing the Greek Civil War to the Wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Syria\" by Stathis Kalyvas"
DESCRIPTION:"\rOn their surface the Greek Civil War and the recent Middle-Eastern conflicts could not be more different: the first was a contest between communists and anticommunists whereas the latter are motivated by conflicting visions of modernity built around religion and the meaning of Islam. Yet, a slightly deeper probe into these cases points to some striking parallels, ranging from the impact of foreign occupation, the importance of external actors, and the role of revolutionary organizations. The aim here is to use the Greek Civil War to provide a counterintuitive interpretation of contemporary Islamist insurgencies.\r\rThe CAS/MillerComm public events series brings to campus people who offer unique cross-disciplinary contributions to the intellectual and cultural life of the university.\r\rThis Center for Advanced Study event is hosted by Modern Greek Studies in conjunction with the Center for Arms Control, Disarmament and International Security, Center for Global Studies, Center for Southeast and Middle Eastern Studies, Cline Center for Democracy, Department of History, Department of Linguistics, Department of Political Sciences, European Union Center, International Programs and Studies, Russian, East European and Eurasian Center, School of Literatures, Cultures and Linguistics, and the Spurlock Museum.\r\r"
