How Middle East Studies Went from Excusing Terror to Embracing It
Ivory Towers in the Sand, 25 years on.
In Ivory Towers in the Sand—written before September 11, 2001, but published shortly thereafter—Martin Kramer exposed the deep corruption of the academic field of Middle Eastern studies, the blind eye it turned to Islamism, and its politicization. Reflecting on the book’s 25th anniversary in conversation with Asaf Romirowsky, Kramer looks at what has changed since. His conclusion: things have only gotten worse, and academics have moved from minimizing or ignoring Islamist violence to endorsing it. (Video, 1 hour.)
