Studies in Contemporary Jewry
Opis
Medding (history of Zionism and the State of Israel, Hebrew U. of Jerusalem, Israel) presents 11 symposium presentations, five review essays, and 58 book reviews related to the violence and Jews. The presentations and essays largely focus on the use of violence by Jews in a wide range of contexts, including the establishment of the State of Israel, Israeli educational institutions, European revolutionary movements, and as resistance to Nazi occupation. The book reviews, although more numerous, only occupy about one-sixth of the text.
