10:15-11:45 Session I – The Destabilization of the Middle East: a non-Eurocentric

Perspective

According to data provided by the US State Department, “incidents of terrorism” increased of 6500% since the “war on terror” began in 2001: half of them have been registered in Afghanistan and Iraq, whose collapse has had a sort of earthquake effect on the all region. Session I aims to assess the issue of cultural heritage and illicit trafficking within the frame of a destabilized region and provide a historical and geopolitical understanding of what the Middle East is currently experiencing. Speakers will explore the link between local hotbeds of conflict/violence/terrorism in countries such as Syria and Iraq, war economics, transnational criminal networks and the politics of deliberate destruction and theft of cultural heritage. They will also analyze the impact of violent and non-violent non-state actors, failed and fragile states, forced migrations, environmental degradation and demographic changes on the safeguarding of cultural heritage sites and/or risks related to conflict, smuggling or destruction.
