  • Miracles Or Randomness? the Traditional Jewish Perspective
    DADON Kotel The Casting of Lots in the Bible and the Modern Age: Miracles or Randomness? The Traditional Jewish Perspective Introduction1 What is the significance of the castingof lots? From Greek philosophy to modern rationalism, there has been an ongoing secularization of the concepts of the casting of lots and randomness,which are allegedly only governed by blind chance and meaningless. Mathematicalscience has even developed an entire branch of probability designed to analyze random events while ignoring their possible interpretation. However, in another world, the world of the Sages, casting lots and randomness have serious roles with multiple meanings. Asurprising number of Jewish sources consider the casting or drawing of lots as a good way to decide on ethical matters, noting its religious value.Throughobservation of lotteries and randomness, it can be demonstratedthat ostensibly chance events are full of meaning and, thereby, exciting cultural and religious options. Science: From Hubris to Randomness Duringthe nineteenth century, thehubris of the natural sciences reached its zenith. Scientific thinking was dominated by positivism, i.e., the view that nature behaves deterministically, with absolute predictability.It followed that if all the data of the present were known to us, we could foresee all future events accurately, since everything occurs as a result of something else. Scientific positivism was convinced that it wasonly a matter of timebefore humanitywould have the scientific knowledge needed to explain and anticipate all natural phenomena. Such assumptions were challenged in the twentieth century. The natural sciences are becoming less deterministic. Randomness has been increasingly recognized as one of the most fundamental natural phenomena.

  • "The Holocaust: Private Memories, Public Memory," by Anita Shapira
    [40] Jewish Social The Holocaust: Private Studies Memories, Public Memory Anita Shapira ver the past 15 years it has been the penchant among histori- ans—myself among them—to present the first couple of de- Ocades following World War II as a period during which the Holocaust was suppressed in Israeli national consciousness. It has been claimed that, throughout this period, the Holocaust played no more than a marginal role in shaping the Israeli national identity, that it was never at the center of the public discourse, that it was not internalized by the education system. People did not want to hear about the Holocaust. People did not wish to discuss the Holocaust. The struggle preceding the founding of the state and, later, the War of Independence suppressed the shock of the Holocaust and the impact it had. There was no room in the newly formed heroic state for exhibitions of weakness and humilia- tion. Some historians have been able to understand this attitude, even excusing and explaining it away. Others were enraged by it and regarded it as a crude expression of heartlessness on the part of the veteran Israeli population toward the new immigrants, survivors of the devastation. But as for actually pushing aside the Holocaust issue to the edges of the Israeli agenda, there was no dispute: this assumption has been accepted as fact by historians and writers alike, and it has received wide coverage in the popular press and television. It served as a central factor in a scathing accusation against David Ben-Gurion—who is identified as the state’s founding father—and against the first native generation, the Sabras, for ignoring or erasing deliberately the memory of the Holo- caust.

  • 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. His books include The Making of the Arab–Israeli Conflict, – (/) and The Modern Middle East ().

  • War Criminal in a Glass Box: Eichmann Trial 40 Years Later
    Film Review: War Criminal in a Glass Box: Eichmann Trial 4... http://www.nytimes.com/library/film/041200specialist-fil... April 12, 2000 FILM REVIEW War Criminal in a Glass Box: Eichmann Trial 40 Years Later Forum Join a Discussion on Current Film By ELVIS MITCHELL new documentary, "The Specialist," comes at an interesting time in the culture. The producer and director, Eyal Sivan, has compiled and assembled black-and-white footage of the trial of the SS officer and war criminal Adolf Eichmann, and his film is the grimmest possible precursor to the occasionally frivolous "Court TV," which plays on the current fascination with watching the judicial process grind exceedingly slow, and exceedingly fine. This year brings the 40th anniversary of Eichmann's capture; the trial opened in Jerusalem a year later, in 1961. "The Specialist" is an amazing document, if only for the spectacle of watching Eichmann, seated in a glass box with two armed guards, take in the trial. The box exaggerates Eichmann's own natural remove, and as he primly cleans his Kino International eyeglasses, it is hard to Adolf Eichmann, chief architect of separate his demeanor Hitler's "final solution," on trial in from his appearance: the Jerusalem in 1961. sharp features, the thin, almost lipless mouth that suggests the horrifying stereotype of dispassionate cruelty. Mr. Sivan and his co-writer, Rony Brauman, have sifted through 350 hours of tape shot by the American documentary filmmaker Leo T. Hurwitz, who was commissioned to film the trial, and found the most dramatic footage. A scene in which the courtroom is darkened and film evidence of atrocities is projected is both low-key and unsettling.

INTRODUCTION The modern State of Israel was born of two powerful impulses. First was the dream of the Zionist pioneers, starting in the late nineteenth century, to return to the ancient Jewish homeland, cultivate the land, and create a new kind of Jew—strong and proud—in an independent state of their own.1 Second was the growing need for a place of refuge in the land of Zion for persecuted

    American Jewish Year Book 1960 A Record of Events and Trends in American and World Jewish Life AMERICAN JFAVISH COMMITTEE JEWISH PUBLICATION SOCIETY OF AMERICA $6.00 N ITS 61 YEARS OF PUBLICATION, the AMERICAN JEWISH YEAR BOOK has provided a unique chronicle of Jewish life in the United States and throughout the world. Appearing at a time when anti-Semitism and neo-Nazism have shocked the world, when tensions and antagonisms in the Middle East are flaring anew and the Jewish commu- nities of North Africa are faced with a rising tide of Arab nationalism, this lat- est volume once again colors in the in- dispensable background for an intelhV gent reading of today's headlines. The present volume also offers inten- sive examination of key issues in the United States and summaries of major programs in American Jewish life. An article based on the first National Study of Jewish Education describes the achievements and failures of Jewish edu- cation in America, gives statistical data, and analyzes its many problems. Another article reports the first find- ings of the National Jewish Cultural Study — which includes surveys of ar- chives, scholarships, research, publica- tions and Jewish studies in secular insti- tutions of higher learning. In addition, there are incisive analyses of civil rights and civil liberties in the United States; recent developments in church-state relationships; anti-Jewish agitation; Jewish education, fund rais- ing, the Jewish center movement, Jew- ish social welfare, and other communal programs.

  • Four Constructions of the Holocaust in Israeli Political Culture
    Cont Jewry (2017) 37:125–170 DOI 10.1007/s12397-017-9208-7 The Holocaust in Israeli Political Culture: Four Constructions and Their Consequences Editor’s Note: This Article is Followed by Four Comments and a Response by Ian Lustick Ian S. Lustick1 Received: 14 March 2016 / Accepted: 23 March 2017 / Published online: 24 April 2017 Ó Springer Science+Business Media Dordrecht 2017 Abstract The collective memory of the Holocaust among Israeli Jews has featured competition among four related but distinct constructions: Zionist Proof-text; Wasting Asset; Object Lesson for safeguarding human rights; and Template for Jewish life. This paper will analyze this competition and the implications of the apparent victory of the Template. While there is a sequence to the changing prominence of these different versions of the Holocaust, each version has enjoyed periods of relative success since World War II. In recent decades, however, the Holocaust as a Template for Jewish Life has emerged as ascendant. Throughout, competition among the four constructions was driven by parochial and temporary political interests and by the unintended consequences of dissatisfactions associated with any one of them. My analysis will trace this competition and those conse- quences, using them to explain the extreme and highly particular features of current Israeli Jewish collective memory of the Holocaust. The paper concludes with an assessment of the implications of the hegemonic status of this version of the Holocaust for appreciating Israel’s contemporary political predicament.

  • Hannah Arendt
    Ausgabe 1/2, Band 6 – November 2011 Journey in Thought – Hannah Arendt By Jonathan Rée Editorial note: The text published below is the transcript of a BBC radio feature in the series “Journeys in Thought” created by Jonathan Rée. Rée concentrates on turning points in the intellectual lives of great thinkers, exploring their ideas and positioning them in time and place. His journey to Israel “in the footsteps of the philosopher and political theorist Hannah Arendt” took him to Jerusalem, from where he returned with a unique and lively documentary radio programme, thus adding a valuable contribution to the debate on Arendt and her book Eichmann in Jerusalem. The programme was first broadcast on 23 November 2003, with a repeat on 28 August 2004; it can be listened to at http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio3/journeysinthought/pip/ashxz/. Having taught philosophy in London for nearly thirty years, Jonathan Rée became a househusband and freelance writer at the turn of the millenium. His books include Proletarian Philosophers, Philosophical Tales, Heidegger, and I See a Voice. For the last ten years he has been working on a history of philosophy. We are grateful to Jonathan Rée for permission to reproduce his programme. This is King George V Street in West Jerusalem. It was here on the 9th of April 1961 that the New York writer Hannah Arendt checked into the Hotel Maria ready to tackle what would be the biggest journalistic assignment of her life. She was one of the greatest political thinkers of her time, and she had come to Jerusalem as a reporter for the New Yorker magazine to cover the trial of the former Gestapo officer Adolf Eichmann.

  • Considerazioni Sul Cd Processo Politico*. 1
    ANDREA PANZAROLA Considerazioni sul c.d. processo politico*. SOMMARIO: 1. – Giustizia e politica. L’ambivalenza del “politico” e la questione tassonomica. 2. – Il processo politico “puro”: un concetto impossibile e una fenomenologia illimitata. 3. – I processi spettacolo nei regimi comunisti: mostruosità giuridica, tormenti esistenziali e angosciosi riverberi letterari. 4. – Frammenti di una fenomenologia del processo politico “puro”: i processi moscoviti e il Tribunale rivoluzionario francese. 5. – “Giustizia politica” e ordo iudiciarius isonomico nell’epoca di mezzo. La insufficienza del solo paradigma inquisitoriale. 6. – Il processo politico, il “notorio ribelle” e il “bando” nella “Guerra dei Trent’anni”. 7. – Sulla omologazione del processo alla politica in un ordinamento liberal-democratico. 8. – Gli antidoti al processo politico “puro”. 9. – Spunti per una rimeditazione circa i rapporti tra procedimento e processo: è ancora attuale la lezione (già) garantista di Elio Fazzalari? Il processo come iudicium e la eclissi del procedimento. 10. – La neutralità come sublimazione del processo. 1. – In senso lato la politica moderna, quale creazione e insieme concreta gestione di ordine della coesistenza umana per il perseguimento del bene comune1, è legata ad altre dimensioni della organizzazione collettiva, tra le quali la giurisdizione. Posto che la giurisdizione si attua attraverso il processo, anche quest’ultimo – la sua istituzione, il suo ordinamento, il suo funzionamento – concorre alla realizzazione di quell’ordine nella convivenza umana al quale mira la politica. Non da ora, e non per caso, anche il processo civile appartiene al dominio del diritto pubblico e negli scopi anche differenti che nel tempo gli sono stati assegnati – dalla attuazione di concrete volontà di legge alla composizione della lite o all’applicazione di sanzioni, ecc.2 – si indovinano agevolmente obiettivi ordinativi di rilievo generale interni al disciplinamento politico di un certo ambito di vita nell’interesse comune.
