  • The Reform Movement in Israel: Past, Present, and Future
    [Year] The Reform Movement in Israel: Past, Present, and Future Laurence Wolff July 6, 2015 Research Paper 13 July 2015 The Gildenhorn Institute for Israel Studies (GIIS) is proud to publish Laurence Wolff’s updated analysis* of the Reform movement in Israel. We will be making it available to all those concerned with religious pluralism in Israel today, and we hope that both its analysis and its recommendations will contribute to the broader conversation about this issue. The GIIS is one of the largest and most active centers for the study of Israel in the United States today. Headed by Professor Yoram Peri, the Abraham S. and Jack Kay Chair in Israel Studies, the GIIS offers 15 courses each year to 500 students, which focuses on five different aspects of Israel: Israeli History, Society, Politics, Culture, and the Middle East Conflict. The GIIS also sponsors conferences, lectures, cultural events, and community forums. It hosts a number of multidisciplinary graduate students each year, and serves as the academic home of the Israel Studies Review, the journal of the Association for Israel Studies. One of the important aspects of the GIIS is sponsoring, conducting, and publishing research on various aspects of Israel Studies. Our signature research project is Israel 2023, a series of three monographs that construct different possible scenarios for Israel as it approaches its 75th anniversary in three broad areas of major concern: Relations between Arab and Jewish Israelis, Israel’s Geo-strategic position, and Religion and State in Israel. The Institute also regularly publishes on its website both original research and translations of important articles that have already appeared in Hebrew.

  • THESIS- THIRD Format Corrections Completed
    ABSTRACT Policing Palestine: British Security Strategy in Palestine, 1917-1947 Robert B. DeBoard, M.A. Mentor: George W. Gawrych, Ph.D. Throughout the British Mandate for Palestine, the British Government attempted to establish a policy that reconciled the dueling aspirations of Palestine’s Arab and Jewish communities. This thesis examines British security operations to suppress the Arab Revolt of 1936, Jewish terrorism during World War II, and the post-war United Resistance Movement. This study contends that the British adopted a colonial policing model that stressed the security forces’ reliance on native support in order to suppress active threats to peace. Second, it demonstrates that shifting British policy led to the alienation of the Jewish community, which had provided important support in suppressing the Arab Revolt. As Jewish intelligence sources dried up, the British were increasingly unable to counter violence coming from the Jewish Underground. This thesis adds to the historiography of the Mandate by demonstrating the complex relationship between British colonial policy, security strategy, and Arab and Jewish national interests.

  • The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem Revisited [2Nd Edition]
    THE BIRTH OF THE PALESTINIAN REFUGEE PROBLEM REVISITED Benny Morris’ The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem, 1947–1949, was first published in 1988. Its startling reve- lations about how and why 700,000 Palestinians left their homes and became refugees during the Arab–Israeli war in 1948 undermined the conflicting Zionist and Arab interpreta- tions; the former suggesting that the Palestinians had left voluntarily, and the latter that this was a planned expulsion. The book subsequently became a classic in the field of Middle East history. The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem Revisited represents a thoroughly revised edition of the earlier work, compiled on the basis of newly opened Israeli military archives and intelligence documentation. While the focus of the book remains the 1948 war and the analysis of the Palestinian exodus, the new material con- tains more information about what actually happened in Jerusalem, Jaffa and Haifa, and how events there eventually led to the collapse of Palestinian urban society. It also sheds light on the battles, expulsions and atrocities that resulted in the disintegration of the rural communities. The story is a harrowing one. The refugees now number some four million and their existence remains one of the major obstacles to peace in the Middle East. Benny Morris is Professor of History in the Middle East Studies Department, Ben-Gurion University.He is an outspo- ken commentator on the Arab–Israeli conflict, and is one of Israel’s premier revisionist historians. His publications include Righteous Victims: A History of the Zionist–Arab Conflict, 1881–2001 (2001), and Israel’s Border Wars, 1949–56 (1997).

  • The London School of Economics and Political Science
    The London School of Economics and Political Science ‘Muddling Through’ Hasbara: Israeli Government Communications Policy, 1966 – 1975 Jonathan Cummings A thesis submitted to the Department of International History of the London School of Economics and Political Science for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, December 2012 ‘In this and like communities, public sentiment is everything. With public sentiment, nothing can fail; without it nothing can succeed. Consequently, he who moulds public sentiment goes deeper than he who enacts statutes or pronounces decisions. He makes statutes and decisions possible or impossible to be executed. Abraham Lincoln ‘By persuading others, we convince ourselves’ Junius ii Declaration I certify that the thesis I have presented for examination for the PhD degree of the London School of Economics and Political Science is solely my own work other than where I have clearly indicated that it is the work of others (in which case the extent of any work carried out jointly by me and any other person is clearly identified in it). The copyright of this thesis rests with the author. Quotation from it is permitted, provided that full acknowledgement is made. This thesis may not be reproduced without my prior written consent. I warrant that this authorisation does not, to the best of my belief, infringe the rights of any third party. iii Abstract This thesis is the history of an intense period of Israeli attempts to address the issue of how the state should communicate its national image, particularly on the international stage. Between 1966 and 1975, the Eshkol, Meir and Rabin governments invested far more time and energy in the management of Israel’s international image than the governments before or after.
