Are We One?: Jewish Identity in the United States and Israel
ISBN: 9780813529172 / Angielski / Twarda / 2001 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. What binds together Jews of Israel and the United States? Amid the hope and frustration generated by the Middle East peace process, the meaning of Jewish statehood is more vigorously contested than ever before. A secular democratic Israel, responsive to Western liberal values, is prepared to make peace with the Palestinians by sacrificing its own historic homeland. But a covenantal Israel, which draws its Jewish identity from divine promise and the biblical narrative, refuses to surrender to modern imperatives. As the very nature of Jewish statehood has become ever more polarized, American...

Jewish State, Pariah Nation: Israel and the Dilemmas of Legitimacy
ISBN: 9781610272148 / Angielski / Miękka / 2014 / 190 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Jewish statehood was restored in 1948 amid a struggle over legitimacy that has persisted in Israel ever since: Who rules? Who decides? Antagonism between the political left and right erupted into bloody violence over the Altalena. Secular-religious discord even made defining who is a Jew in a Jewish state contentious. After the Six-Day War, the return of religious Zionist settlers to biblical Judea and Samaria reframed the struggle over legitimacy. Who decides where in the Land of Israel Jews may live: settlers and rabbis or the government? Israel's invasion of Lebanon in 1982 provoked...
