Israel Denial : Anti-Zionism, Anti-Semitism, & The Faculty Campaign Against the Jewish State PDF
by Cary Nelson
Description
A work of "rigorous intellectual inquiry" critiquing the BDS movement in academia (Jewish Journal).
Israel Denial is the first book to offer detailed analyses of the work faculty members have published-individually and collectively-in support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement; it contrasts their claims with options for promoting peace.
The faculty discussed here have devoted a significant part of their professional lives to delegitimizing the Jewish state. While there are beliefs they hold in common-including the conviction that there is nothing good to say about Israel-they also develop distinctive arguments designed to recruit converts to their cause in novel ways. They do so both as writers and as teachers; Israel Denial is the first to give substantial attention to anti-Zionist pedagogy. No effort to understand the BDS movement's impact on the academy and public policy can be complete without the kind of understanding this book offers.
