The Rise of the Israeli Right: From Odessa to Hebron
ISBN: 9780521193788 / Angielski / Twarda / 2015 / 318 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The Israeli Right first came to power nearly four decades ago. Its election was described then as 'an earthquake, ' and its reverberations are still with us. How then did the Right rise to power? What are its origins? Colin Shindler traces this development from the birth of Zionism in cosmopolitan Odessa in the nineteenth century to today's Hebron, a centre of radical Jewish nationalism.

Israel and the European Left: Between Solidarity and Delegitimization
ISBN: 9781441188984 / Angielski / Twarda / 2011 / 336 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why has the European Left become so antagonistic towards Israel? To answer this question, Colin Shindler looks at the struggle between Marxism-Leninism and Zionism from the October Revolution to today. Is such antagonism in opposition to the policies of successive Israeli governments? Or, is it due to a resurgence of anti-Semitism? The answer is far more complex. Shindler argues that the new generation of the European Left was more influenced by the decolonization movement than by wartime experiences, which led it to favor the Palestinian cause in the post 1967 period. Thus the... Why has the European Left become so antagonistic towards Israel? To answer this question, Colin Shindler looks at the struggle between Marxism-Leni... |

In the aftermath of the Second World War, over two million men were conscripted to serve in Britain's armed services. Some were sent abroad and watched their friends die in combat. Others remained in barracks and painted coal white. But despite delivering such varied experiences, National Service helped to shape the outlook of an entire generation of young British males. Historian Dr Colin Shindler has interviewed a wide range of ex-conscripts, from all backgrounds, across all ranks, and spanning the entire fourteen years that peacetime conscription lasted,...

ISBN: 9781442265967 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 392 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The saga of Israel is fascinating, unique, and controversial.

Israel and the World Powers: Diplomatic Alliances and International Relations Beyond the Middle East
ISBN: 9781848857803 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 360 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Israel's relations - or lack of them - with Muslim countries throughout the Middle East and the Islamic world are subject to repeated analysis and scrutiny in both the media and academia. But what have previously been less examined are Israel's relationships with the rest of world: from the former colonial states of Britain and France to the superpowers of the US and Russia and to emerging and regional powers such as China, India and Brazil. Conventionally seen as a state isolated from its Arab neighbors and irrevocably allied with the US, Israel is examined here in the light of its efforts...

A History of Modern Israel
ISBN: 9781107028623 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 496 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Colin Shindler's remarkable history begins in 1948, as waves of immigrants arrived in Israel from war-torn Europe to establish new cities, new institutions, and a new culture founded on the Hebrew language. Optimistic beginnings were soon replaced with the sobering reality of wars with Arab neighbours, internal ideological differences, and ongoing confrontation with the Palestinians. The author paints a broad canvas that affords unusual insights into Israel's multicultural society, forged from more than one hundred different Jewish communities and united by a common history. In this updated...

ISBN: 9781845110307 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Why did Israel shift from a state based on pioneering egalitarianism and ""making the desert bloom"" to one which is chiefly known for its military prowess? Colin Shindler examines Israel's shift to the right at the hands of Menachem Begin, the supposed ""disciple"" of Vladimir Jabotinsky.

Why did Israel shift from a state based on pioneering egalitarianism and ""making the desert bloom"" to one which is chiefly known for its military might - as dramatically demonstrated most recently in Gaza? The Triumph of Military Zionism examines Israel's shift to the right at the hands of Menachem Begin, the supposed ""disciple"" of Vladimir Jabotinsky.
