It's really hot outside in more ways than one. One wonders if the current heatwave is due to the Global Warming that we've been hearing so much about or if it's just one of those terrible "furnaces" that we suffer every now and then. Whatever the reason I certainly hope that it's causing many of you to plan your next "escape." Maybe a nice cruise to Alaska!! I! Doesn't that sound nice and refreshing and believe me not that expensive. I've long given up the practice of quoting attractive prices to various destinations as I am sure you will all agree that the one commodity that really hasn't increased in price is travel. So all that it really takes is the decision to where the budget will allow you to go. Actually the prices to South Africa have really come down this July/ August with a great two for one deal $1298 for a couple. Pity to miss such an opportunity. As mentioned in my last letter, our office arranges the very popular Brenda Miller music tours to Europe. The last few months we've had great tours returning from Russia and Paris with people raving that they enjoyed the experience of a lifetime. We are planning a new tour to Russia in September, so please call Tammy or Ilanit in our office for f u l l d e t a i l s . I wish you all a pleasant summer.

  • 2006 Abstracts
    Works in Progress Group in Modern Jewish Studies Session Many of us in the field of modern Jewish studies have felt the need for an active working group interested in discussing our various projects, papers, and books, particularly as we develop into more mature scholars. Even more, we want to engage other committed scholars and respond to their new projects, concerns, and methodological approaches to the study of modern Jews and Judaism, broadly construed in terms of period and place. To this end, since 2001, we have convened a “Works in Progress Group in Modern Jewish Studies” that meets yearly in connection with the Association for Jewish Studies Annual Conference on the Saturday night preceding the conference. The purpose of this group is to gather interested scholars together and review works in progress authored by members of the group and distributed and read prior to the AJS meeting. 2006 will be the sixth year of a formal meeting within which we have exchanged ideas and shared our work with peers in a casual, constructive environment. This Works in Progress Group is open to all scholars working in any discipline within the field of modern Jewish studies. We are a diverse group of scholars committed to engaging others and their works in order to further our own projects, those of our colleagues, and the critical growth of modern Jewish studies. Papers will be distributed in November. To participate in the Works in Progress Group, please contact: Todd Hasak-Lowy, email: [email protected] or Adam Shear, email: [email protected] Co-Chairs: Todd S.

  • Women in Israel
    Israel Studies: An Anthology - Women in Israel Women in Israel By Anat Maor (March 2010) Introduction The status of women in Israel began to take shape in context of the ideology of the Zionist movement and the First Aliyah to Israel in 1882. These gave rise to two fascinating and contradictory trends: on one hand, research indicates that Zionism, as the national liberation movement of the Jewish people, was essentially a masculine liberation movement. On the other hand, the harsh conditions of the pioneers and the need to settle the land led to prima facie equality with regard to labor and security, and to the establishment of women’s organizations during the earliest stages of the Yishuv. One of the main streams in Zionism championed the return to national independence, to Jewish defense forces, to conquest through labor, conquest of the soil, physical agricultural work, and the native Israeli (Sabra) role model. These all required attributes of physical strength, physical labor, the military, heroism in war, independence, and control. Yet, the image of the state of the Jews in exile was of feminine attributes, interpreted as weakness: spiritual power, the capacity to give, non-physical labor, culture and literature, dependence (on the gentile nations), and domestication (as well as the obligation to be confined in ghettoes). A fascinating illustration of these attributes can be seen in Michael Glozman’s recent study.[1] He analyzes Herzl’s Altneuland as a gender and sexual utopia that sees the objective of Zionism as transforming the “emaciated Jewish youth” into a “steel-cast man”; he discusses the works of Bialik, who emphasizes that the Kishinev pogrom represents “powerlessness – the most shameful illness of all,” and he brings Yosef Haim Brenner’s impressions of “this nation’s feminine virtues.” The greatest authors and poets of early Zionism – Herzl, Bialik, and Brenner – contributed to the shaping of the Jewish and Zionist national image as explicitly masculine images, muscle-bound and strong.

    CA 506/88 Shefer v. State of Israel 1 CA 506/88 Yael Shefer (a minor) by her mother and natural guardian, Talila Shefer v. State of Israel The Supreme Court sitting as the Court of Civil Appeal [24 November 1993] Before Vice-President M. Elon and Justices Y. Malz, H. Ariel Appeal on the judgment of the Tel-Aviv-Jaffa District Court (Justice E. Mazza) on 8 August 1988 in OM 779/88. Facts: The appellant, Yael, a minor, was born with the incurable Tay-Sachs disease. When she was two, her mother applied to the District Court for a declaratory judgment that when Yael’s condition worsened, she would be entitled not to receive treatment against her will. The District Court denied the application. An appeal was filed to the Supreme Court, and in September 1988, the Supreme Court denied the appeal, without giving its reasons. When Yael was three years old, she died. The following judgment sets forth the reasons for the aforesaid decision of the Supreme Court, and discusses the right of a patient to refuse medical treatment, and the right of a parent to refuse medical treatment for a child. Held: Under the principles of law accepted in the State of Israel as a Jewish and democratic state, the supreme principle of the sanctity of life and the fact that Yael was not suffering as a result of her terminal illness did not allow any intervention to shorten Yael’s life. Appeal denied. Legislation cited: Basic Law: Human Dignity and Liberty, 5752-1992, ss. 1, 2, 4, 5, 7, 8.

  • Water Conflict Between Syria and Israel Sami ULLAH Abstract The
    Water Conflict Between Syria and Israel Sami ULLAH Abstract The water conflict is one of the important criteria in determining the relation between Syria and Israel. Due to geographical nature of Middle East, shortage of water resources can be a huge problem. In this article water conflict between Syria and Israel has been discussed. Long standing disputed area which is known as Golan Heights, is one of the main reasons of many Arab-Israel conflicts. In this paper we have tried to connect the relation of Arab-Israel wars with the Golan height conflict. Importance of Golan height has also been touched, especially geostrategic and geopolitics importance of Golan Heights has been discussed. Short historical background is also been explained, started from 15th century to till now. Golan conflict has an international background we will explore how International actors reacted in resolving the issue, especially UN resolutions have great importance in Golan Height conflicts. Keywords: Golan height, Syria, Israel, War, UN, Disputed Kocaeli Üniversitesi, Uluslararası İlişkiler ULLAH Vol 5 (1) 2019 Water Conflict Between Syria and Israel Introduction Despite some brief interludes of optimism in the early 1990s, the history of conflict and mistrust between Israel and Syria, the ongoing occupation of the Golan Heights, and periodic hostilities mean that a durable peace between them remains a distant prospect. Throughout the last two decades of official and unofficial peace talks between Israel and Syria, the position and concerns of each party to reach peace have become evident. The Syrians insist on a full Israeli withdrawal from the Golan, captured in 1967, down to the 4 June 1967 line, which would allow Syrian access to the Sea of Galilee/Lake Tiberias.
