  • In the Name of Socialism: Zionism and European Social Democracy in the Inter-War Years
    In the Name of Socialism: Zionism and European Social Democracy in the Inter-War Years PAUL KELEMEN* Summary: Since 1917, the European social democratic movement has given fulsome support to Zionism. The article examines the ideological basis on which Zionism and, in particular, Labour Zionism gained, from 1917, the backing of social democratic parties and prominent socialists. It argues that Labour Zionism's appeal to socialists derived from the notion of "positive colonialism". In the 1930s, as the number of Jewish refugees from Nazi persecution increased considerably, social democratic pro-Zionism also came to be sustained by the fear that the resettlement of Jews in Europe would strengthen anti-Semitism and the extreme right. The social democratic movement was an important source of political support for the setting up of a Jewish state in Palestine. Yet its attitude to Zionism has been noted mostly en passant in works tracing the socialist, and in particular the Marxist, interpretations of the Jewish question.1 The lack of attention accorded to this issue stems partly from the pre-1914 socialist theoreticians themselves, most of whom considered Zionism, simultaneously, as a diversion from the class struggle and a peripheral issue. In the inter-war years, however, prominent socialists, individual social democratic parties and their collective organizations established a tradition of pro-Zionism. The aim, here, is to trace the ideas and political factors which shaped this tradition. Before World War I, sympathy for Zionism in the socialist movement was confined to its fringe: articles favourable to Jewish nationalism appeared, from 1908, in Sozialistische Monatshefte, a journal edited by Joseph Bloch and influential on the revisionist right wing of the German Social Democratic Party.2 Bloch's belief that the sense of national com- munity transcended class interest as a historical force, accorded with interpreting the Jewish question in national rather than class terms.

In the spring and summer of 1970, Arie Bober (died 2003), then member of Matzpen, made a speaking tour of the US, sponsored by the Committee on New Alternatives in the Middle East (CONAME). Among the sponsors of CONAME were Arthur Miller, Noam Chomsky and Pete Seeger; its main activists included Berta Green Langston, Robert Langston and Emmanuel Dror Farjoun (a member of Matzpen doing post-graduate work at the MIT). In connection with this tour, the Langstons arranged with the publisher Doubleday & Co for the publication of a book, entitled The Other Israel: The Radical Case Against Zionism, to be edited by Bober. The book - consisting entirely of Matzpen material - came out in 1972. Bober signed the contract with Doubleday and his name appears as the nominal editor. The actual editing work was done by Emmanuel Dror Farjoun with the help of Robert Langstone. 1 Introduction This book is the result of five years' collective effort by a small group of Arab and Jewish citizens of Israel to penetrate the dense net of illusion and myth that today dominates the thinking and feeling of most Israelis and, at the same time, largely determines the prevailing image of Israel in the Western world.

  • Exporting Zionism
    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,

  • A History of Modern Palestine
    A HISTORY OF MODERN PALESTINE Ilan Pappe’s history of modern Palestine has been updated to include the dramatic events of the s and the early twenty-first century. These years, which began with a sense of optimism, as the Oslo peace accord was being negotiated, culminated in the second intifada and the increase of militancy on both sides. Pappe explains the reasons for the failure of Oslo and the two-state solution, and reflects upon life thereafter as the Palestinians and Israelis battle it out under the shadow of the wall of separation. I P is Senior Lecturer in Political Science at the University of Haifa in Israel. He has written extensively on the politics of the Middle East, and is well known for his revisionist interpretation of Israel’s history.

  • The Israeli Histadrut: an Apartheid Institution Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign Briefing Paper for Trade Unionists
    Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign Boycott Israel Briefing The Israeli Histadrut: an apartheid institution Scottish Palestine Solidarity Campaign briefing paper for trade unionists The Israeli pseudo-trade union, the Histadrut, is an active supporter of illegal occupation and dispossession of Palestinians. The Histadrut actively worked to defeat the Palestinian intifada (uprising) for freedom from illegal military occupation. The Histadrut’s construction company has been involved in massive construction programmes in the Occupied Territories. The Histadrut recruits illegal settlers while keeping out Palestinians; and endorses the denial of any basic human rights to Palestinian workers in sweatshops in zones under direct Israeli military control. CONTENTS: • Labour Zionism and the Histadrut are the real criminals • Driving Arabs out of jobs – a precursor to ethnic cleansing A Zionist poster from the 1930s • Opposition to trade union unity encourages settlers to buy only • watermelons that are produced in The Histadrut and the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian Jewish settlements.

  • Partnership2gether Central Galilee-Michigan L'shana Tova
    Partnership2Gether Central Galilee-Michigan L’Shana Tova To our dear Partnership friends and our partners in Michigan – Shana Tova! The conclusion of one year and the beginning of a new one is a fitting time to take a look back and examine the work we've done and make plans for the upcoming year. This year the Partnership communities on both sides of the Atlantic tightened their close relations—most significantly during this past summer—in a series of joint activities culminating in the Tamarack 'bar mitzva' party and a visit by the Steering Committee to Detroit. But beyond that we've accomplished so much in our region. Our Partnership region is a leader, by all criteria, in the scope and quality of endeavors by local volunteers. This year we significantly expanded our volunteer circle which includes eleven (!!) action teams: human capital, communications, Ann Arbor – Nahalal relations, Taglit-Birthright, young adults, Partnership Path, English, private learning, youth leadership, Tamarack, and Choosing Tomorrow. Our volunteers are truly the engine that propels Partnership-2-Gether activity forward; they have the power to define trends for the Partnership's future as well as that of the entire region. Thanks to their efforts, all of the region's residents benefit. In keeping with Partnership policy, this year, too, we've greatly expanded activity of young people. A young and vibrant team composed of young Israelis and Detroiters oversees joint activities and is building a young leadership in the region. We are convinced that all of us will reap the fruits of their labors over the coming years.
