昨年12月27日にイスラエル軍が開始したガザ地区への攻撃が激しさを増しています。1月3日からは地上侵攻も始まり、6日現在でパレスチナ側には600人を超える死者と3000人近い負傷者が出ています。パレスチナにおけるこの事態を受けて、東京外国語大学中東イスラーム研究教育プロジェクトでは緊急ワークショップを開催します。中東地域・パレスチナに長年関わってきた学内外の研究者を中心に、今の状態を招いた背景と今後の展望、訴えていくべき内容や取るべき行動について考えます。(案内文より) 2009年1月11日(日)午前11:00-午後2:00(11:00開場、11:15開始) 会場:如水会館1階 如水コンファレンスルーム(東京都千代田区一ツ橋2-1-1/Tel:03-3261-1101(代)/地下鉄東西線 竹橋駅徒歩4分、地下鉄半蔵門線・三田線・都営新宿線 神保町駅徒歩3分) 講演者: 酒井啓子(東京外国語
ここ数年、日本人の間で知名度が急上昇した中東の近代都市ドバイ(アラブ首長国連邦=UAE)。金融危機でさすがにスローダウンしたものの、その急成長ぶりには目を見張るものがある。世界的に評価の高いエミレーツ航空を利用して、観光やビジネスで訪れた読者も少なくないだろう。 つい数十年前までは砂漠の小さな街が、今や世界有数の観光都市に成長し、超高級一流ホテルがひしめき合う。「カネさえあれば」の条件付きだが、もはや手に入らないモノやサービスはない。この街を歩くと、そんな気になってしまう。 しかしながら、この国に滞在してインターネットを利用すると、たちまち「異変」に気づくはず。日本国内であれば何ら問題なく利用していたサイトでも、見慣れない画面表示とともにアクセスがブロックされることがあるのだ。

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is unusually "political", the argument runs, so doing aid work in Gaza is difficult and contentious, unlike helping the victims of a tsunami, a famine or a war in a despotic African country.
