What is The postzionism debates : knowledge and power in Israeli culture about?
Postzionism is a term increasingly used in Israeli public culture to refer to those who challenge zionism's hegemony. This is the first book to discuss and analyze the debates over post-zionism that go to the heart of Israeli national identity and culture. <p>Applying a framework drawn from contemporary cultural studies, postcolonial studies and the writings of Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, <i>The Postzionism Debates</i> considers the arguments of the critics of post-zionism, who believe that it represents an effort to subvert the historical foundations of the state of Israel, and the proponents of post-zionism, who think it is a necessary prerequisite of Israel's emergence as a fully democratic society.</p> <p>The struggle for postzionism is a conflict over national memory and the control of cultural and physical space. Laurence J. Silberstein analyzes the phenomenon of postzionism and provides an intervention into this debate.</p>
