HIST 268 - Incarceration in the Modern MENAFC SSCI CD 4 credits This lecture course examines the social history of incarceration in the Middle East and North Africa from the late 19th century to today. We will consider how carceral institutions have been central to governance and everyday life under colonial rule, independent governments, and military occupation. Adopting a broad definition of incarceration, we will explore institutions like prisons, refugee camps, orphanages, police forces, and conscription armies, and how those institutions have criminalized communities and shaped social movements.
