  • Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism Cosmopolitan Reflections

    Anti-Zionism and Antisemitism Cosmopolitan Reflections David Hirsh Department of Sociology, Goldsmiths, University of London, New Cross, London SE14 6NW, UK The Working Papers Series is intended to initiate discussion, debate and discourse on a wide variety of issues as it pertains to the analysis of antisemitism, and to further the study of this subject matter. Please feel free to submit papers to the ISGAP working paper series. Contact the ISGAP Coordinator or the Editor of the Working Paper Series, Charles Asher Small. Working Paper Hirsh 2007 ISSN: 1940-610X © Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy ISGAP 165 East 56th Street, Second floor New York, NY 10022 United States Office Telephone: 212-230-1840 www.isgap.org ABSTRACT This paper aims to disentangle the difficult relationship between anti-Zionism and antisemitism. On one side, antisemitism appears as a pressing contemporary problem, intimately connected to an intensification of hostility to Israel. Opposing accounts downplay the fact of antisemitism and tend to treat the charge as an instrumental attempt to de-legitimize criticism of Israel. I address the central relationship both conceptually and through a number of empirical case studies which lie in the disputed territory between criticism and demonization. The paper focuses on current debates in the British public sphere and in particular on the campaign to boycott Israeli academia. Sociologically the paper seeks to develop a cosmopolitan framework to confront the methodological nationalism of both Zionism and anti-Zionism. It does not assume that exaggerated hostility to Israel is caused by underlying antisemitism but it explores the possibility that antisemitism may be an effect even of some antiracist forms of anti- Zionism.

The war highlighted as never before the dependence of Israeli society on foundations, businesses, and other funding organizations to meet the basic needs of the average Israeli citizen. Ten years ago this Third Sector would have focused on providing its resources in a way that supplemented the safety net and basic services provided by the national government. Increasing privatization, the outsourcing of more and more services, and continual budget cuts have created a void in the provision of basic services, and the Third Sector is now being forced to fill this void. This was never more evident that during the recent war, where it was the foundations together with the NGO's that responded immediately and effectively to the emergency needs of the population in the North, including both those who were evacuated from the area and those forced to live in bomb shelters for extended periods of time.
