Urban Arcadias: Émigré Experts, Spatial Knowledge, and the Rise Of Urban Arcadias: Émigré Experts, Spatial Knowledge, and the Rise of Zionist-Israeli Planning, 1933-1953 By Shira Wilkof A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair Professor Andrew Shanken Professor Kerwin Klein Summer 2017 Urban Arcadias: Émigré Experts, Spatial Knowledge, and the Rise of Zionist-Israeli Planning, 1933-1953 Copyright 2017 By Shira Wilkof ABSTRACT Urban Arcadias: Émigré Experts, Spatial Knowledge, and the Rise of Zionist-Israeli Planning, 1933-1953 by Shira Wilkof Doctor of Philosophy in Architecture University of California, Berkeley Professor Nezar AlSayyad, Chair This study provides a first history of the emergence of urban and national planning in Jewish Palestine/Israel (1933-1953), placing it in the wider context of the international planning movement and the flow of knowledge, ideas and expertise within it. I do so by critically excavating the individual work of three German-émigré planners during the British Mandate period, all of whom later became senior state planners in early statehood: Eliezer Leonid Brutzkus (1907-1987), Ariel Anselm Kahane (1907-1986), and Artur Glikson (1911-1966). Their planning work, which has mostly escaped the scholars’ radar, embodies a unique encounter between German cultural sensibilities and professional traditions, British colonial practices and the Zionist ideology. Operating at a time of global turmoil, each produced a distinct imagination for national “Urban Arcadias”, grounded in the local settler enterprise, yet enthusiastically participating in the universal quest for a new social order. Essentially a work of planning history, this project also combines the perspectives of social history, history of the built-environment disciplines and Middle East studies. It takes as its point of departure underexplored aspects of planning, a distinct policy expertise that originated in fin- de-siècle industrial Europe and which evolved in the first half of the twentieth-century from a voluntarist, urban field to an influential public policy expertise concerned with large-scale planning. It highlights crucial, yet largely neglected, questions regarding spatial policy, including national and regional land use, town-country relations, settlement structure, demography and economy, and their encounter with emergent ideas on state interventionism and technocracy. Following an introductory chapter, which considers historiographical and theoretical aspects, a separate chapter is devoted to the work of each of the three planners during the British Mandate period. It progresses chronologically from Brutzkus’ introduction of functional-economic planning in the late 1930’s, to Kahane’s formalistic-aesthetic techno-utopian proposals for postwar reconstruction, and then moving on to Glikson’s environmentalist approach, which 1 matured in his postwar exchange with the urban critic Lewis Mumford. The final chapter discusses how their cumulative insight was brought to bear, and compete on, post-1948 national planning, as co-founders of the first Israeli national planning team. Particular emphasis is placed on the planners’ varying conceptions of the local Palestinian population as they were either incorporated into, or removed from, their various plans. The Afterword suggests signposts for future research in connection with the postwar New Towns movement worldwide. This research provides new insights regarding the rise of planning at a formative period of institutionalization. It illuminates both the diverse disciplinary knowledge that informed its rise and the cutting-edge work by transnational planners operating in the cultural and geographical margins of the West. As well, it pushes the boundaries of the field of planning history, demonstrating the historiographical potential in addressing this distinct set of questions to the built environment fields and beyond, as revealed through this specific case study. Thus, the findings call for a revision of one of the founding myths of Israeli nation-building by countering the conventional “architectural modernist” narrative of early statehood planning, associated with the Bauhaus-graduate Arieh Sharon—the head of the first national planning team—and the aesthetic traditions and social utopianism that he espoused. Instead, I reveal how a cross-range of planning ideas, obscured by the overarching architectural narrative, were in fact the crucial locus of influence. Further, this unknown groundwork of planners and planning knowledge during the Mandate period, and especially the agency of Brutzkus, both explored here for the first time, call for a rereading of the transition from the pre-Independence Zionist rural pioneering ethos to the post-Independence ‘urban turn.’ 2 Table of Contents Archive Abbreviations

Abstract: Revision cochlear implant (RCI) is a growing burden on cochlear implant programs. While reports on RCI rate are frequent, outcome measures are limited. The objectives of the current study were to: (1) evaluate RCI rate, (2) classify indications, (3) delineate the pre-RCI clinical course, and (4) measure surgical and speech perception outcomes, in a large cohort of patients implanted in a tertiary referral center between 1989–2018. Retrospective data review was performed and included patient demographics, medical records, and audiologic outcomes. Results indicated that RCI rate Citation: Sagiv, D.; Yaar-Soffer, Y.; was 11.7% (172/1465), with a trend of increased RCI load over the years.

Many of the sources posed problems concerning numerical data on immi­ gration, especially for the months leading up to the end of the British Mandate, January-April 1948, and the first few months of the state, May­ August 1948. The researchers point out that 7,574 immigrant data cards are missing from the records and believe this to be due to the 'circumstances of the times'. Records are complete from September 1948 onward, and an important population census was held in November 1948. A parallel record­ ing system conducted by the Jewish Agency, which continued to operate after that of the Mandatory Government, provided us with statistical data for immigration during 1948-9 and made it possible to analyse the part taken by the Holocaust survivors.

  • —PALESTINE and the MIDDLE EAST-N
    PALESTINE AND MIDDLE EAST 409 —PALESTINE AND THE MIDDLE EAST-n By H. Lowenberg— PALESTINE THE YEAR BEGINNINO June, 1947, and ending May, 1948 was among the most crucial and critical periods in Palestine's modern history. The United Nations' historic partition decision of November 29, 1947, divided the year into two halves, each of different importance for the Yishuv and indeed for all Jewry: the uneasy peace before, and the commu- nal war after the UN decision; the struggle to find a solution to the Palestine problem before, and to prepare for and defend the Jewish state after that fateful day. Outside Palestine, in the Middle East as a whole, the UN partition decision and the Arab rebellion against it, left a mark scarcely less profound than in Palestine itself. UNSCOP On May 13, 1947, the special session of the General As- sembly of the United Nations created the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP) with instructions to "prepare and report to the General Assembly and submit such proposals as it may consider appropriate for the solution of the problem of Palestine . not later than September ,1, 1947." In Palestine, the Arabs followed news of UNSCOP with apparent indifference. They adopted an attitude of hostil- ity towards the Committee, and greeted it with a two-day protest strike starting on June 15, 1947. Thereafter, they 410 AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK took no further notice of the Committee, the Arab press even obeying the Mufti's orders not to print any mention of UNSCOP. This worried the Committee, as boycott by one side to the dispute might mean a serious gap in its fact finding.

  • The Reproduction of Settler Colonialism in Palestine
    JPR The Reproduction of Settler Colonialism in Palestine Marcelo Svirsky Abstract: Critical scholarship on Palestine/Israel tends to focus on conceptualising the settler colonial practices that characterise this conflict but have failed to account for how these practices are reproduced and sustained over time. To address this gap, rather than focusing on Israel’s quantifiable strengths such as military might, the use of law, the economy, and diplomacy, this article investigates the reciprocal relations between the formation of Israeli modes of being or subjectivities, on the one hand, and the generation and distribution of settler colonial surplus, on the other. The examination of the processes of subjectivity formation in their settler colonial register on the side of the coloniser allows understating how the circuits of settler colonial power endure. Keywords: Israel, Palestine, settler colonialism, subjectivity Introduction mages of Israeli aggression abound in the media: reports, photographs and video clips of Israeli soldiers and police officers beating and shooting unarmed Palestinians; airplanes indiscriminately bombing cities and towns in the Gaza Strip; Israelis uprooting Palestinian Iolive groves in the West Bank; army tractors using their blades to flatten Palestinian villages; Israeli politicians announcing new discriminatory laws against the Palestinian citizens of Israel, or threatening a new attack on Gaza or the West Bank; everyday harassment occurring at checkpoints; interviews with Israeli passers-by shouting out their

    Exporting Zionism: Architectural Modernism in Israeli-African Technical Cooperation, 1958-1973 Ayala Levin Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under the Executive Committee of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Ayala Levin All rights reserved ABSTRACT Exporting Zionism: Architectural Modernism in Israeli-African Technical Cooperation, 1958-1973 Ayala Levin This dissertation explores Israeli architectural and construction aid in the 1960s – “the African decade” – when the majority of sub-Saharan African states gained independence from colonial rule. In the Cold War competition over development, Israel distinguished its aid by alleging a postcolonial status, similar geography, and a shared history of racial oppression to alleviate fears of neocolonial infiltration. I critically examine how Israel presented itself as a model for rapid development more applicable to African states than the West, and how the architects negotiated their professional practice in relation to the Israeli Foreign Ministry agendas, the African commissioners' expectations, and the international disciplinary discourse on modern architecture. I argue that while architectural modernism was promoted in the West as the International Style, Israeli architects translated it to the African context by imbuing it with nation-building qualities such as national cohesion, labor mobilization, skill acquisition and population dispersal. Based on their labor-Zionism settler-colonial experience,
