Israel

Omer Bartov

£20.00

Professor Omer Bartov explores the transformation of Zionism from a movement of Jewish emancipation and liberation into a state ideology of ethno-nationalism, exclusion and violent domination of Palestinians. He traces the process whereby Israel - whose establishment received international support in the aftermath of the Holocaust - stands accused of war crimes and genocide. Less than eight decades after its founding in 1948 - the year in which the UN Genocide Convention was adopted in response to Nazi crimes - Bartov argues that the Jewish state is engaged in a genocidal undertaking in Gaza. What are the implications of Israel's near total impunity for the post-1945 regime of international law? And how do we understand the widespread support for these policies by Israel's Jewish citizens?
