II Preface I wasborn in the firstof decade the 20th cennuyand have almost mana"oedto reach the miUenium. I have lived through the most exciting cennuy in human history, a period that haswitnessed more wide-reaching changes than any other period in human history. It has been a cenrury of political change; of scientific, technological and medical discoveries; of new forms of industrial production and commerce, and of a revolution in communications. In the beginning of the cennuy most of the world was still ruled by empires: the British empire alone controUed one quarter of the globe. The century has seen autocracy replaced in advancedcountries by delTlClCnlC)': constitutional parliamenllll)' rule. the rule of law, respect for the individual, and the right to self-determination. The20th cennuyhas wialso tnessedtragic anddevastating periods: rwo World Wars. a multitudeof lesser wars, Nazism and Holocaus� Fascism and Stalinism, intemationaitelTOrism. Corruption and tyranny are rampant in many developing countries. stifle progress and cause a life of misery for untold millions. There is a resurgence of religious militant extremism. The division berween developed and developing regions, belWeen haves and have-nots is still rampant I have attempted to recreatein my memorythe home and theenvironment I lived in as a youth in orderto gauge the enormous change that hasdeveloped in living conditions in the course of my lifetime. I liYed in a middle class residential horne in a good neighborhood in the modem town of Anrwerp. Running water and indoor toiler facilitieshad only recendyreplaced a hand;)jleratedpump and an outhouse. Like in mosthomes, showersand bathsnon-existent were Gasfor cookingand lighting had beenquite recently installed,replacing a coal burning stove and kerosene lamps with glass chimneys.There was no telephone , and until the mid­ rwenties no electricity. Even afterelectricity wasinstalJed. refrigernror.;, dishwashe� vacuum cleaners, irons, washing and drying machines were still in a distant future. Tramways in Brussels, the capital, were stiU horse­ drawn and travel was restricted to the rich. IfI was allowed to chose the cenrury I wished to live in. I would unhesitatingly chose the 20th. from beginningto end I wouldnot have likedto be bornearlier, because life. except for thevery rich, wasfor most people a shoo life of drudgery, malnutrition anddeadly dullness. I would not ha>e liked to be born at a later date, becausethen I would have missed the thri1I and awe of wimessing all the wonderful developments of our times. It is this sense of reverence for the complexity of living things and for the workings of the human brain that has never left me and that I feel to be a most precious asset. I have never become blase when taking a plane and sit daily, always in astonishmen� before my computer. My grear-granddaughters play their games on the computer; they take for granted thatwhen they dial a number, they caninstandy contact a cousin in distantAmerica and watching television is pan of a daily routine. They take for granted what to me. at their age. would have seemed unimaginable luxwy. There is no longer a sense of wonder and awe, and I fuelthat this is a grear loss. I was born not only in the right cennuy, but inalso theright places to growup in. I was bornBelgium, in a democraticand freedom-loving counny,where I never experienoedmanifestations of antisemitism.I passed the most formativeyears of my life as a war refugee in England. mosdy in a rura1environmen� where I learnt to love narure and where I made agriculture my career choice. In this choice I have never wavered. I also Ieamedfrom the English a sense of tolerance, fuir play and honesty that have always guided me DJring my adolescence I was active in a Zionist-Socialist youth movement which funher molded my characterand imbued me with a sense of mission: to reestablish a national home for the Jewish people. I had the privilege of being involved in the realization of this dream. If one defines as a miracle "an event that defies logic,= againststatistical all probabilities and whose outcome is contrary to what the avera"oe person wouldexpect", I have witnessed many miracles in thecourse of my adult life in Palestine -Israel The first and foremost miracle was the establishment of the State of Israel against all odds. As a research agronomist I participated in the transition from biblical fanning based on back-breaking drudgery to modem sophisticated agricultural production, that has occurred inthis counny and in which Jewish and ArabfunnelS involvedalike are I have alsotraveled widely as aCORSUltant on agricultura1research and development in developing countries on behalfof various international organizations. After retiremen� I made a change of profession when appointed Directorof Research at the Serdement Study Center in Rehovot. After a decade, I retired a second time , and I spent two wonderful years at the University as a smdent of an:heology, consolidating my knowledge on what had been a love affair whilst III married to agriculrure. I ampresendy in thepenultimate (tooch wocxf) of decade my life. Asan octogenarianmy mainoccu pation has beenwriting. I have writtenthree bookson based the experience gained during the three main activities of my professional life: as an agronomist and research worl<er - Agriculrure: in Dry Lands - as a Director of Agriculrural Research - Agriculrural Research andTechnology Transfer - and as a consultant on agriculrural research and development in developing countries in four continents - The Modemization of Agriculrure in DevelopingCountries. I have alsobeen Chief Editorof theIsraeli Encyclopedia of Agriculrureand duringthis period I completed six volumes ofa new edition. Having scrnrect the bottom of the professional barrel, I wooId have remainedout of workif my daughter­ in-law Naomi had not continuously pressed me

  • Immigrant Musicians on the New York Jazz Scene by Ofer Gazit A
    Sounds Like Home: Immigrant Musicians on the New York Jazz Scene By Ofer Gazit A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Music in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Benjamin Brinner, Chair Professor Jocelyne Guilbault Professor George Lewis Professor Scott Saul Summer 2016 Abstract Sounds Like Home: Immigrant Musicians On the New York Jazz Scene By Ofer Gazit Doctor of Philosophy in Music University of California, Berkeley Professor Benjamin Brinner, Chair At a time of mass migration and growing xenophobia, what can we learn about the reception, incorporation, and alienation of immigrants in American society from listening to the ways they perform jazz, the ‘national music’ of their new host country? Ethnographies of contemporary migrations emphasize the palpable presence of national borders and social boundaries in the everyday life of immigrants. Ethnomusicological literature on migrant and border musics has focused primarily on the role of music in evoking a sense of home and expressing group identity and solidarity in the face of assimilation. In jazz scholarship, the articulation and crossing of genre boundaries has been tied to jazz as a symbol of national cultural identity, both in the U.S and in jazz scenes around the world. While these works cover important aspects of the relationship between nationalism, immigration and music, the role of jazz in facilitating the crossing of national borders and blurring social boundaries between immigrant and native-born musicians in the U.S. has received relatively little attention to date.

  • Post-Traumatic Urbanism: Repressing Manshiya and Wadi Salib T ⁎ Gabriel Schwake
    Cities 75 (2018) 50–58 Contents lists available at ScienceDirect Cities journal homepage: www.elsevier.com/locate/cities Post-traumatic urbanism: Repressing Manshiya and Wadi Salib T ⁎ Gabriel Schwake David Azrieli School of Architecture, Tel Aviv University, Israel TU Delft, Faculty of Architecture & The Built Environment, The Netherlands ABSTRACT Trauma is defined as a wound or an injury caused by an act of violence on one's body, or as a severe anxiety caused by an unpleasant experience. The victims of traumatic events may develop psychological stress disorder, which is manifested in several symptoms: post-traumatic stress disorder. The 1948 Arab-Israeli had caused both physical and psychological trauma. The symptoms of this trauma are still visible today in various Israeli cities. As a result of the war, Israeli cities had annexed formerly owned Palestinian villages and neighborhoods. Along the years, these vacated Palestinian houses were settled by Jewish immigrants, turned to slums and became the target of several urban renewal projects. These renewal projects mainly asked to erase all traces of the neigh- borhood's Arab past, and to introduce a new urban order. This research focuses on Al Manshiya in Tel Aviv-Jaffa and Wadi Salib in Haifa, two former Palestinian neighborhoods, which were vacated from their original in- habitants. This research surveys the re-planning process of both neighborhoods, its implementation and its current status. Asking whether one can depict symptoms of post-trauma in the urban scheme and in the buildings' architecture. Al Manshiya was torn down completely in the 1970's, in order to make place for Tel Aviv's new central business district.
