A decade ago, AJC published Post-Zionism by Rochelle Furstenberg, a monograph that provided a detailed overview of post-Zionism as an intellectual current. Professor Gelbers work assesses historical writings published within the past decade and engages their arguments concerning Israels alleged misdeeds. His work should prove an important resource in understanding both how reading of the past affects contemporary politics, and how the case for Israel remains very much part of contemporary debates concerning the role of ideas in society and politics.All the best, David David Elazar Messages and opinions expressed on Hasafran are those of the individual author and are not necessarily endorsed by the Association of Jewish Libraries (AJL) =========================================================== Submissions for Ha-Safran, send to: Hasafran @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu SUBscribing, SIGNOFF commands send to: Listproc @ lists.acs.ohio-state.edu Questions, problems, complaints, compliments;-) send to: galron.1 @ osu.edu Ha-Safran Archives: Current: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/maillist.html History: http://www.mail-archive.com/hasafran%40lists.acs.ohio-state.edu/history.html AJL HomePage http://www.JewishLibraries.org
