    Ausblick: Der Weg Des Zionismus Von Der Utopie Zur Wirklichkeit

    Ausblick: Der Weg des Zionismus von der Utopie zur WIrklichkeit Die so ausstrahlungskräftigen politischen Führungspersönlichkeiten Israels, derer es nicht wenige gab und die alles andere als unumstritten blieben, faszinierten in den vergangenen Jahrzehnten und nicht zuletzt von lCJ77 bis 1983, bis zum Rücktritt Menahem Begins, die Beobachter der israelischen Politik. Nicht allen gefiel alles an den israelischen Politikern. Aber selten blieb man ihnen gegenüber gleichgültig. Israel, Israelis und beson­ ders israelische Politiker polarisierten, nach außen ebenso wie nach innen. Durch eine Personalisierung der Politik könnte man leicht vergessen, daß die gegenwärtigen und zukünftigen Probleme Israels weniger mit "großen" Männern und Frauen als vielmehr mit der Identität des jüdi• schen Staates zusammenhängen. Der Staat steckt in einer ,Identitäts• krise', die eine bislang nie gekannte Polarisierung und, daraus abgelei­ tet, auch im Weltjudentum bewirkt hat (vgl. Wolffsohn, 1983 b). Diese Identitätskrise hat einen arabisch-jüdischen sowie einen innerjüdischen Aspekt. Zunächst zum arabisch-jüdischen Bereich: Der Krieg gegen die PLO im Libanon, besonders die Massaker in den heiden Beiruter Flüchtlingslagern (1982), hat den Israelis deutlicher als frühere Ereig­ nisse die Kosten des eigenen Erfolges drastisch vor Augen geführt. Dies bezieht sich auf den Kampf gegen die PLO, ja sogar auf das zionistische Autbauwerk schlechthin: Sollte das Leid der Palästinenser der Preis für einen jüdischen Staat sein? fragen erstmals seit dem Herbst 1982 nicht nur Randgruppen sondern weite Kreise der Bevölkerung Israels. Zugleich wurden Zweifel an der Strategie der militärischen Hegemo­ nie, d.h. der militärischen Übermacht laut. Bislang hieß es immer, Is­ rael müsse militärische Übermacht besitzen, damit die Araber nicht den jüdischen Staat vernichten könnten.

HUNTINGTON FORGOT ABOUT: A CRITIQUE OF “JUDEO-CHRISTIAN” CIVILIZATIONAL VALUES By DOMINIQUE REBEKAH HOFFMAN A Thesis submitted to the Department of International Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with Honors in the Major Degree Awarded: Summer, 2020 1 SAMUEL P. HUNTINGTON is the Eaton Professor of the Science of Government and Director of the John M. Olin Institute for Strategic Studies at Harvard University. His theory was published first in a paper titled Clash of Civilizations in 1993. He later expanded upon his theory in a book titled The Clash of Civilizations and the Remaking of World Order. My thesis challenges Huntington’s oversight in not classifying a Jewish civilization, which he justifies as part of Western civilization based on shared “Judeo-Christian” values. Huntington’s work is widely debated, and not universally accepted. This essay assumes Huntington’s thesis is a lens to view international relations, this thesis does not hypothesize nor debate the validity of Huntington’s thesis in its entirety, rather seeks to challenge his classification of civilizations. For work that argues Huntington’s thesis is valid, please read the work of Robert D. Kaplan titled Looking the World in the Eye. For work that challenges the validity of Huntington, please read the work of Edward Said titled Clash of Ignorance (2001).

    VICTIMS’ POLITICS: JEWISH BEHAVIOR DURING THE HOLOCAUST by Evgeny Finkel A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Political Science) at the UNIVERSITY OF WISCONSIN–MADISON 2012 Date of final oral examination: 07/12/12 The dissertation is approved by the following members of the Final Oral Committee: Yoshiko M. Herrera, Associate Professor, Political Science Scott G. Gehlbach, Professor, Political Science Andrew Kydd, Associate Professor, Political Science Nadav G. Shelef, Assistant Professor, Political Science Scott Straus, Professor, International Studies © Copyright by Evgeny Finkel 2012 All Rights Reserved i ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This dissertation could not have been written without the encouragement, support and help of many people to whom I am grateful and feel intellectually, personally, and emotionally indebted. Throughout the whole period of my graduate studies Yoshiko Herrera has been the advisor most comparativists can only dream of. Her endless enthusiasm for this project, razor- sharp comments, constant encouragement to think broadly, theoretically, and not to fear uncharted grounds were exactly what I needed. Nadav Shelef has been extremely generous with his time, support, advice, and encouragement since my first day in graduate school. I always knew that a couple of hours after I sent him a chapter, there would be a detailed, careful, thoughtful, constructive, and critical (when needed) reaction to it waiting in my inbox. This awareness has made the process of writing a dissertation much less frustrating then it could have been. In the future, if I am able to do for my students even a half of what Nadav has done for me, I will consider myself an excellent teacher and mentor.

    Tisha Beav EN 3

    MARCO 1: TISHA B ’AV Batnua DEFINITION AND CONTEXT Tisha B’Av (the ninth of Av) is the day of the Hebrew calendar that observes the worst tragedies that our people 10€ have experienced throughout our history. Among the events that are commemorated on this date are God’s sentence upon the generation of Israelites who left Egypt to wander in the desert for forty years before being given access to the Land of Israel, the destruction of the First Temple (586 BCE), the destruction of the Second Temple (70 CE), the Fall of the Fortress of Betar in the times of Bar Kochva (135 CE), and the edict of expulsion of the Jews from Spain (1492 CE), among others. It is worth mentioning that these events led to the perishing of millions of Jews who lost their lives for the mere fact of being Jewish; we also remember them this day. DID YOU KNOW? • In the kenim of Hanoar Hatzioni, three anthems are usually sung: “Anu Olim”, “Kadima Hanoar” and Hatikvah. In all three cases we can find the close connection between the exile that our people have suffered (as a result of the destruction of the Temples), its cruel consequences for the Jews throughout the world and our profound vision as a movement to educate our chaverim to return to our Land, Israel, to live a Jewish life as a norm. התקווה קדימה הנוער אנו עולים כל עוד בלבב פנימה קדימה הנוער, קדימה הנוער אנו עולים ושרים נפש יהודי הומייה לעליה להתישבות על חרבות ופגרים ולפאתי מזרח קדימה תכלת לבן הוא דגלנו אנו פוסעים ועוברים עין לציון צופיה.

    ABOUT THIS BOOK Jewish Life in Cleveland in the 1920S and 1930S

    ABOUT THIS BOOK Jewish Life in Cleveland in the 1920s and 1930s by Leon Wiesenfeld This book, published in 1965, is best understood by its subtitle: “Memoirs of a Jewish Journalist”. It is not a history, but rather Leon Wiesenfeld’s accounts of some events, written from his perspective, which appeared in his Jewish Voice Pictorial. Wiesenfeld was more than a journalist. He championed the Jewish people and fought their enemies. He worked for an inclusive Jewish community, with cooperation between the “assimilated Jews” and the Yiddish-speaking Jews he wrote for who in the 1930s were the majority of Cleveland’s Jews. He was a passionate Zionist and a supporter of Rabbi Abba Hillel Silver. Wiesenfeld (Feb. 2, 1885 – March 1, 1971) was born in Rzeszow, Poland and worked for Polish and German publications before coming to America. He worked briefly in New York for Abraham Cahan's Jewish Daily Forward before coming to Cleveland in 1924. For 10 years he was the associate editor of the Yiddishe Velt (Jewish World), Cleveland's principal Yiddish-language newspaper, before becoming its editor in 1934. In 1938 he left to establish an English-Yiddish weekly Die Yiddishe Stimme (Jewish Voice) which failed after about a year. He then started an English language annual, Jewish Voice Pictorial, which endured into the 1950s. (From the entry in the Encyclopedia of Cleveland History.) The book’s introduction was written by Moses Zvi Frank, a long-time Jewish journalist. Frank’s review of the book in the Indiana Jewish Post of May 7, 1965 notes that he translated it from chapters Wiesenfeld had written in Yiddish.
