Understanding Hamas, Ep.3: Dr. Jeroen Gunning

Just World Podcasts

This was the third of a series of Public Conversations that Just World Ed is presenting in May 2024, on the theme of "Understanding Hamas and Why That Matters." The series is presented by JWE President Helena Cobban and board member Rami G. Khouri. Our guest was Dr. Jeroen Gunning, a Professor of Middle Eastern Politics and Conflict Studies at King’s College, London. Dr. Gunning is also a Visiting Professor at the Department of Political Science, Aarhus University, and at the Middle East Centre at the London School of Economics. He is one of the founders of the field of critical terrorism studies and has taught and advised both policy-makers and civil society organizations.

In 2010, he published a book titled, Hamas in Politics: Democracy, Religion, Violence. You can learn about the broad array of articles and books he has published on different aspects of the work of radical non-state actors in various parts of West Asia, at his page on the KCL website.

You can see much more information about this project and access the multimedia records of this session and all the others as they occur, at this Online Learning Hub on our website.
