Ces changements se sont depuis lors concrétisés. 2 D’abord en ce qui concerne le projet scientifique du CRFJ. Élaboré au cours du premier semestre de 2005, il a été approuvé par le Conseil scientifique du Centre le 29 juin 2005. Il comprend trois axes majeurs, qui correspondent grosso modo à ceux qui existaient antérieurement, mais ceux-ci ont été modifiés dans leur intitulé et redéfinis dans leur contenu. Ces trois axes sont : Archéologies et sciences de l’antiquité ; Les traditions : histoire, religion, savoirs ; Israël et l’espace israélo-palestinien contemporains. Chacun de ces axes comprend plusieurs thèmes qui se déclinent eux-mêmes en un ou plusieurs programmes de recherche. Ces programmes sont tous animés par un tandem de chercheurs français et israéliens dont la collaboration matérialise à la fois la coopération scientifique entre les deux pays et les partenariats mis en place entre leurs institutions scientifiques. Au total, près de 200 chercheurs français et israéliens sont mobilisés par ces programmes. 3 La mise en œuvre de ce nouveau projet scientifique est assurée par l’équipe permanente du CRFJ, par des chercheurs associés français et israéliens et par des boursiers doctorants. La nomination de chercheurs affectés (chercheurs du CNRS ou enseignants-chercheurs en délégation) est toujours attendue et devrait intervenir prochainement. Un nombre croissant de chercheurs associés effectuent désormais au Centre des missions de durées variables. Quant aux doctorants boursiers, ils sont une demi-douzaine, certains pour une année ou deux. 4 La mise en place de ce projet scientifique s’est accompagnée de nouvelles activités. On en trouvera ci-après la liste : le CRFJ a organisé ou a participé en tant que partenaire à quatre colloques ou ateliers internationaux en 2005 ; dix rencontres scientifiques sont prévues en 2006. Il s’ajoute des séminaires propres du CRFJ (mensuels en 2005, bimensuels à partir de 2006), des séminaires de recherche qui rassemblent plus d’une vingtaine de participants ainsi que des conférences mensuelles qui drainent chacune un public nombreux. Parallèlement, plusieurs ouvrages sont en préparation éditoriale Bulletin du Centre de recherche français à Jérusalem, 16 | 2005 4 dans les collections du CRFJ, « Hommes et Sociétés » et « Mélanges », publiées l’une et l’autre par CNRS Éditions, tandis qu’une nouvelle collection sera consacrée à la publication des travaux relevant des sciences de l’antiquité. 5 Les autres changements concernent le Bulletin. Ils revêtent trois aspects. En premier lieu, sa présentation : avec ce numéro 16, le Bulletin est désormais mis en ligne grâce à l’aide du Centre d’édition numérique du CNRS. Techniquement complexe, cette transformation a été longuement préparée, et c’est pourquoi le présent numéro paraît avec un retard de plusieurs mois. Le numéro précédent, 15, est accessible en ligne depuis février 2006 ; les numéros antérieurs le seront progressivement, à partir du numéro 1, en sorte que l’ensemble des articles parus depuis 1998 pourront être consultés facilement. Ce changement traduit la volonté de donner au Bulletin une plus grande visibilité et d’ouvrir au plus grand nombre. 6 En second lieu, le Bulletin sera désormais annuel. Ce rythme de parution correspond mieux à celui des activités du Centre, en particulier celui des rencontres scientifiques. 7 Enfin, le contenu du Bulletin est changé. On y trouvera toujours, bien sûr, les articles rédigés par les chercheurs affectés et associés du Centre, par les boursiers et par les chercheurs accueillis dans le cadre des aides dites « mois-chercheurs » ; mais on y trouvera aussi une rubrique sur la « Vie du Centre de recherche français de Jérusalem », qui permettra de faire état des événements nouveaux qui concernent la vie du Centre et de présenter rapidement l’ensemble de ses activités – colloques et ateliers, séminaires, conférences – pour l’année écoulée et un calendrier de l’année à venir. Jérusalem, le 1er janvier 2006.

Rencontres scientifiquesApproches interdisciplinaires à l’étude des cultures et des religions L’atelier « Approches interdisciplinaires à l’étude des cultures et des religions », organisé, les 20 et 21 mars 2005, par le Centre de recherche français de Jérusalem conjointement avec l’EHESS et l’Université hébraïque de Jérusalem, s’est proposé de développer la mise en place de collaborations bilatérales entre les chercheurs de l’EHESS et ceux de l’Université hébraïque de Jérusalem. Les exposés des chercheurs français, dont on trouve ci-dessous la liste, étaient discutés par leurs homologues israéliens : • Jean-Loup Amselle, Le renversement du monde ou les enjeux d’une déconstruction de l’Occident ; répondant : Steve Kaplan. • Vincent Fourniaux, La russification parmi d’autres facteurs globaux : l’héritage national dans les pays de l’Asie centrale ; répondant : Michal Biran. • Jean-Pierre Albert, Le virtuose religieux ; répondant : Guy Stroumsa • Michaël Werner, Philologie, culture littéraire et sciences sociales.

Nouveaux développements quant à l’histoire de la recherche et la notion de modernité ; répondant : Yemima Ben-Menahem. • Florence Heymann, présentation de l’intervention de Danielle Hervieu-Léger (absente), La figure du converti comme une figure de la modernité religieuse ; et réponse. L’histoire et la philosophie des sciences françaises à la lumière de l’œuvre d’Émile Meyerson (1859-1933) En 2002, s’est tenue la réunion constitutive de l’équipe de recherche internationale qui s’attache à rendre justice à l’œuvre de l’épistémologue Émile Meyerson, injustement disparu de l’enseignement de la philosophie en France. Trois ans après, le Centre de recherche français a organisé les 6 et 7 juin, conjointement avec l’Université hébraïque de Jérusalem et l’université de Paris I, un colloque international « L’histoire et la philosophie des sciences françaises à la lumière de l’œuvre d’Émile Meyerson (1859-1933) ». Venus de France et d’Israël, les intervenants ont étudié la place d’Émile Meyerson dans l’épistémologie française et sa réception dans le monde, essentiellement dans le cercle de Vienne et aux États-Unis. Bulletin du Centre de recherche français à Jérusalem, 16 | 2005 7 À l’occasion de cette rencontre ont été définies les modalités de publication de la correspondance et des manuscrits inédits de cette grande figure de l’histoire

  • Americans and the Holocaust Teacher Guide Interpreting News of World Events 1933–1938
    AMERICANS AND THE HOLOCAUST TEACHER GUIDE INTERPRETING NEWS OF WORLD EVENTS 1933–1938 ushmm.org/americans AMERICANS AND THE HOLOCAUST INTERPRETING NEWS OF WORLD EVENTS 1933–1938 OVERVIEW By examining news coverage around three key events related to the early warning signs of the Holocaust, students will learn that information about the Nazi persecution of European Jews was available to the public. They will also consider the question of what other issues or events were competing for Americans’ attention and concern at the same time. Despite the many issues that were on their minds during the period 1933–1938, some Americans took actions to help persecuted Jews abroad, with varying degrees of effectiveness. This lesson explores the following questions: n How did Americans learn about the Nazi persecution of Jews in Europe in the context of other international, national, and local news stories? How did they make sense of these events? HISTORY KEY QUESTIONS EXPLORED 1. What information about the Nazi persecution of Jews was being reported in the news media throughout the United States? 2. What else was being covered in the news and competing for the public’s attention during this period? 3. How did Americans respond to this knowledge? What impact did these actions have? 4. How might competing issues have influenced the willingness of the American public to respond to the early persecution of Jews in Europe? HISTORY LEARNING OBJECTIVES 1. Students will learn that information about the persecution of European Jews was available in newspapers throughout the United States. 2. Students will understand that competing concerns influenced the willingness of the American people to respond to this persecution.

The proposed legislation calls for amending Basic Law: The Knesset (hereinafter: “the Basic Law”) on two levels: A. The proposal allows a majority of 90 members of Knesset to suspend an incumbent member of Knesset on one of the three grounds listed in Section 7A of Basic Law: The Knesset; B. the proposal expands the grounds for disqualifying a candidate or list under Section 7A of the Basic Law, stipulating that it is sufficient that they express support for an armed struggle that is not necessarily identified with a terrorist organization or enemy state. In addition, it asserts that when deliberating on disqualification, the candidates will also be judged by their statements and not only by their objectives or actions. 2. It is impossible to ignore the context that led to this proposed legislation. The legislation was proposed in response to a meeting held by members of Knesset Jamal Zahalka, Haneen Zoabi and Basel Ghattas of the Joint List with P.O.

  • 1 the Real Reason the Gaza War Broke
    The real reason the Gaza war broke out Adam Raz | Haaretz There’s no shortage of pieces in Haaretz based on the political theory that the great ones – to borrow from Bertolt Brecht – often slip on banana peels as they go about the work of government. Consider Haaretz’s Hebrew edition this past Wednesday: Columnist and business editor Sami Peretz explained to his readers that the current round of violence “began with a series of mistakes by the Israel Police” in Jerusalem. Senior Middle Eastern affairs analyst Zvi Bar’el wrote that “thanks to Israel’s mismanagement, Hamas identified an opportunity” to marginalize the Palestinian Authority. And top Military correspondent and defense analyst Amos Harel added that in recent days Israel “underestimated Hamas’ intentions and operational capabilities. But it’s possible that now the Hamas leadership in Gaza is making the same critical mistake.” Another Haaretz military correspondent, Yaniv Kubovich, reported on that same day that defense officials incorrectly believed that Hamas would be deterred from fighting, while chief intelligence and strategic affairs columnist Yossi Melman adopted Barbara Tuchman’s “March of Folly’’ thesis to explain how sometimes leaders act just plain foolishly. As Melman put it, the measures being taken now “violate the self-interest” of Benjamin Netanyahu. In other words, according to Wednesday’s Haaretz, the prime minister and Israel’s other decision-makers are, to put it crudely, thickheaded – as if they were making mistakes day in and day out. Mr. Melman, like other writers, insured himself against the risk that facts would emerge to destroy his thesis, so he added that we can’t rule out that “folly doesn’t apply to what’s happening to us right now.” Mr.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION RECOVERING A REPRESSED PAS T On February 12, 2013, Ruth Calderon was invited to the dais of the Israeli Knesset to deliver her firs t speech as a newly-elected member of parliament.1 The speech was unlike any given in the his tory of deliberations in Israel’s legislature in that it consis ted primarily of her reading and interpreting a Talmudic s tory. The Talmudic s tory that Calderon read before the Knesset, firs t in the original Aramaic and then in Hebrew translation, was, as is typical of these s tories, very brief: Rabbi Rahumi s tudied under Rava in Mehoza. He would regularly come home to his wife on the eve of Yom Kippur. One day [on the eve of Yom Kippur] the topic [he was s tudying] drew him in. His wife anticipated him, “He is coming. He is coming.” He did not come. She began to grieve. She shed a tear from her eye. He was sitting on a roof. The roof collapsed under him, and he died. (B. Ketubot 62b)2 The s tory reflects what appears to have been a common practice among rabbinic scholars in Babylonia: to absent themselves from home for long periods of time to s tudy Torah. The author of the s tory expresses his disapproval of this cus tom by portraying empathically the emotional s tress experienced by Rabbi Rahumi’s wife when he was so engaged in Torah s tudy that he forgot to return home for the sacred holiday. The excitement captured in her cry of anticipation, “He is coming.

  • "The War of the Torah": the Israeli Religious Peace Movements' Struggle for Legitimation
    "THE WAR OF THE TORAH": THE ISRAELI RELIGIOUS PEACE MOVEMENTS' STRUGGLE FOR LEGITIMATION Gerald Cromer Since the Six-Day War, religious Zionism has been increasing ly identified with the ideology of the Complete Land of Israel (Er etz Yisrael Hashlema). The maximalist stance on the territorial issue has become depoliticized and achieved a taken-for-granted status. The religious peace movements have interpreted privileged texts and politicized the annual cycle offestivals in an attempt to break this ideological hegemony and to show that their more dov ish stance is also grounded in an authentic reading of Jewish tra dition. However, they have failed to create the cultural resonance that is an essential prerequisite for success. The Long Journey to the Right With the signing of the armistice agreements in 1948, the question of Israel's boundaries disappeared from the public agen da. The right-wing Herut movement continued to dream and sing about "the two banks of the Jordan," but for all intents and pur poses the subject was no longer relevant. Only after the Six Day War, nearly twenty years later, did it become a live issue again. The debate as to whether the territories that came under Israeli jurisdiction had been liberated or occupied was not just a Jewish Political Studies Review 13:3-4 (Fall 2001) 159 This content downloaded by the authorized user from 192.168.72.226 on Tue, 13 Nov 2012 06:42:46 AM All use subject to JSTOR Terms and Conditions 160 Gerald Cromer semantic one; it reflected the conflicting opinions about their fu ture and that of Israeli society as a whole.
