Download or read book Land Center and Diaspora written by Isaiah Gafni and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 1997-02-01 with total page 137 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the outstanding features of Second Temple and post-Temple Jewish life was the existence of a major Jewish center in the land of Israel alongside a large and prosperous diaspora. This duality of Jewish existence and the ongoing Jewish dispersion raised questions that went to the heart of Jewish self-identity. Declarations of allegiance to the ancestral homeland were frequently accompanied by seemingly contrary expressions of 'local-patriotism' on the part of Jewish diaspora communities. With the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple in 70 CE and the subsequent failure under Bar Kokhba to revive political independence, diaspora Jews as well as those in Judaea were forced to re-evaluate the nature of the bonds that linked Jews throughout the world to 'The Land'. In this book, developed from the third Jacobs Lectures in Rabbinic Thought, delivered in Oxford in January 1994, Isaiah Gafni explores a historical theme that has a strong contemporary relevance.

Download or read book Eretz Israel and Palestine The question about escalation in the Middle East written by Christian Kutzscher and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2018-06-08 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Seminar paper from the year 2018 in the subject Politics - Region: Near East, Near Orient, grade: 1,0, Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (Institut für Politikwissenschaft), course: International Relations, language: English, abstract: This paper deals with the question if escalation of the Arab-Israeli conflict is inevitable, stating arguments on the theoretical basis of neorealism and trying to predict future steps taken by both parties. To simplify and because the conflict is not just between Palestine and Israel, the ongoing dispute will be called Arab-Israeli conflict. For over 60 years, a conflict has been on the verge of escalation. Strong political and cultural actors with differing positions fight day to day to claim what in their opinion is theirs. The conflict is still relevant today as terrorism, hatred and nationalism combine into a seemingly endless spiral of provocation and escalation. An approximate of 51,000 people’s lives were claimed over the course of the conflict. Because Europe encounters terrorism itself, the fear of radical Islamism groups grows constantly, giving the Israelis point of view reason. New political actors and the general shift of the political landscape, like the rise of populism in the United States and Europe, changes the way conflicts are handled. Rather than engaging in diplomatic relations and trying to search for common ground, provocation and mistrust are being expressed. Historically, the Middle East engaged in armed conflicts because of its religious disparities. Now, the tone has changed and with it, the possibility of escalation in the Arab-Israeli conflict, which is now, once again, on the verge of escalation.

Download or read book The New Israelis written by Yossi Melman and published by Carol Publishing Corporation. This book was released on 1992 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The results of the June 1992 Israeli elections indicate that Israel is on the verge of a dramatic political reversal. After fifteen years of right-wing Likud government, the Labor party is back in power. In The New Israelis, Yossi Melman, an award-winning Israeli journalist and author explores the character of his fellow countrymen and women to reveal the agents of change in Israeli society. The new Israelis are undergoing a period of confusion and vulnerability, and the Persian Gulf War struck them a devastating psychological blow. By forcing Israel to stand defenseless before its enemies, the war unleashed hidden and unprecedented conflicts within the Israeli people about their relationship to their own nation. Never before has the very identity of Israel been so challenged as it is today. The Israeli people are torn between a modern secularism and a historical religious tendency that is manifested in both a new and powerful fundamentalism and a widespread obsession with mystical cults. The kibbutz movement and many of the cornerstones of Israel's western socialist democracy are eroding; the emerging free market economy, compulsive consumerism, and the indiscriminate imitation of popular western culture have shaken the Zionist heritage. The traditional patterns of social justice and faith in the righteousness of Israel's defensive wars have been eroded by a combination of corruption and a recognition that the facts of Israel's history do not correspond to its mythology. The persistence of the Palestinian dilemma and the state's continuing role as occupier have haunted Israeli life. After a half-century of fighting wars, Israelis are finally weary. Knowing his country and the dilemmasit faces, Yossi Melman looks at Israeli history and contemporary life in a new way: He is both critical of and sympathetic toward the paradoxes of Israeli life. In The New Israelis he offers a dramatic and intimate view of how the Israeli people are facing their changing nation and what that portends for the future of Israel, the Jewish diaspora and the rest of the world.

Download or read book Reconsidering Israel Diaspora Relations written by Eliezer Ben-Rafael and published by Brill Academic Publishers. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 485 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this era of globalization, Jewish diversity is marked more than ever by transnational expansion of competing movements and local influences on specific conditions. One factor that still makes Jewish communities one is the common reference to Israel. Today, however, differentiations and discrepancies in identification and behavior generate plurality and ambiguities about Israel-Diaspora relationships. Moreover the Judeophobia now rife in Europe and beyond as well as the spread of the Palestinian cause as a civil religion make Israel the world’s "Jew among nations”. This weighs heavily on community relations - despite Israel’s active presence in the diaspora. In this context, the contributions to this volume focus on Jewish peoplehood, religiosity and ethnicity, gender and generation, Israelophobia and world Jewry, and debate the perspectives that are most pertinent to confront the question: how far is the Jewish Commonwealth (Klal Yisrael) still an important code of Jewry today?
