Download or read book Palestine in Israeli School Books written by Nurit Peled-Elhanan and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year, Israel's young men and women are drafted into compulsory military service and are required to engage directly in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This conflict is by its nature intensely complex and is played out under the full glare of international security. So, how does Israel's education system prepare its young people for this? How is Palestine, and the Palestinians against whom these young Israelis will potentially be required to use force, portrayed in the school system? Nurit Peled-Elhanan argues that the textbooks used in the school system are laced with a pro-Israel ideology, and that they play a part in priming Israeli children for military service. She analyzes the presentation of images, maps, layouts and use of language in History, Geography and Civic Studies textbooks, and reveals how the books might be seen to marginalize Palestinians, legitimize Israeli military action and reinforce Jewish-Israeli territorial identity. This book provides a fresh scholarly contribution to the Israeli-Palestinian debate, and will be relevant to the fields of Middle East Studies and Politics more widely.

Download or read book Western Jewry and the Zionist Project 1914 1933 written by Michael Berkowitz and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2003-04-10 with total page 328 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This 1996 study of the Zionist movement in Germany, Britain, and the United States recognizes 'Western Zionism' as a distinctive force. From the First World War until the rise of Hitler, the Zionist movement encouraged Jews to celebrate aspects of a reborn Jewish nationality and sovereignty in Palestine, while at the same time acknowledging that their members would mostly 'stay put' and strive toward acculturation in their current homelands. The growth of a Zionist consciousness among Western Jews is juxtaposed with the problematic nurturing of the movement's institutions, as Zionism was consumed increasingly by fundraising. In the 1930s, Zionist images assumed a progressively greater share of secular Jewish identity, and Zionism became normalized in the social landscape of Western Jewry, but the organization faltered in translating its popularity into a means of 'saving the Jews' and 'building up' the national home in Palestine.
Download or read book To Resist the Academic Intifada written by Gil Troy and published by Wicked Son. This book was released on 2024-09-25 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since October 7, many students—and their parents—have been reeling. Hamas’s rampage through Israel unleashed waves of anti-Semitism, anti-Zionism, and anti-Americanism—which had been building for decades, especially on campus. In these letters to his students, Professor Gil Troy, American presidential historian and Zionist activist, pushes back against the growing despair regarding America and the assault on Zionism, Israel, and the Jews. Recounting the journey he and his family took as Eastern European Boat People, Troy tells the story of Generation Hope—when millions of Americans trusted that their lives would be better than their parents’ and grandparents’. His compelling trajectory from lower-middle-class Queens to Harvard, then to McGill, reinforced his faith in Americanism, liberalism, and Zionism. Alas, he confronted the hyper-politicization of academia two decades before the Academic Intifada’s eruption on October 7, 2023, when too many intellectuals, self-styled Progressives, and feminists cheered for terrorism, torture, kidnapping, and mass rape. Troy has long led this resistance to these snowflake revolutionaries, articulating an affirmative vision of proud Americanism and fearless Zionism. He now urges his students and peers to tell their Mayflower Tales—from Old World oppression and poverty to New World opportunities. In telling this true, textured, all-American yet deeply Jewish story of an ever-improving nation pursuing happiness, where progressives believe in progress, and conservatives conserve institutions, he also explains his vision of Identity Zionism, a liberal-democratic nationalism that is proud, affirming, and inspiring, confident enough to be self-critical when necessary but ready to mobilize, build, rebuild, and dream always.
Download or read book Nationality and Ethnicity in an Israeli School written by Dalya Yafa Markovich and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-07-31 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nationality and Ethnicity in an Israeli School: A Case Study of Jewish-Arab Students explores the intersection of ethnicity, nationality, and social structure which is experienced through schooling and its effects on the performance of disadvantaged students. The book sheds light on the ramifications of the multilayered ethnic-class identities and explores the role of nationality in the reproduction of a depoliticized ethnic hierarchy in school and society. It offers an ethnographic case study of one Israeli high school that adopted critical pedagogy in order to empower underprivileged students that belonged to second and third generation of immigrant Jews from Arab countries. It also analyses the ways in which educational gaps are reproduced through the dominant national culture and identity and discusses the educational consequences of multiethnic school settings. The book will appeal to students, researchers and academics in the fields of sociology of education, education policy, peace education, Israeli studies, and critical pedagogy studies.
Download or read book Propaganda and Zionist Education written by Yoram Bar-Gal and published by University Rochester Press. This book was released on 2003 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A history of the Jewish National Fund and the ways it encouraged Jews around the world to buy land in Palestine in the years 1924-1947. The Jewish National Fund [JNF] is the executive body established by the Zionist movement in 1902 to buy land in Palestine for the Jewish people. Very quickly, however, it became an international organization and soon had branchesin many countries throughout the world. One of the tasks of these branches was to mediate between the central office in Jerusalem and the millions of Jews who donated money to buy land. The organization, which is still active throughout the Jewish world, concerned itself with "the marketing of ideology" the dissemination of symbols, knowledge and ideas to the masses of the Jewish people, and converted them into money and real estate property. In thememories of much of World Jewry the JNF is linked with memories of their childhoods and the forming of their identities. The memory was, in fact, fashioned by the Propaganda Department of the JNF which worked through the mass communications media in the Jewish world and made its presence massively felt in the Jewish education networks in many countries. Among the most remembered items are "the Blue Box", the flagship of the organization, and the stamps distributed to schools, which were miniature posters making political declarations. Up until today there has been virtually no research carried out on these aspects of Zionist propaganda which helped to fashion this collective memoryand left its mark upon Jewish culture in Israel and the Jewish Diaspora. Yoram Bar-Gal is Professor of Geography at Haifa University in Israel.
