A Flexible Framework for Urgent Public Health Climate Action
Climate change poses profound threats to human safety, health, and well-being. Public health agencies, especially state, territorial, local, and Tribal health departments, can play an essential role in climate change adaptation and mitigation. Public health climate action can protect health, promote health equity, and increase climate change resilience. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has updated its original climate and health fra…
Duncan’s Open Form and Cagean Intermedia: The Practice of “Theatre” After Black Mountain
What is Duncan’s allusion to John Cage’s “open scales” doing at the end of “Passages 17”? Roughly contemporaneous with Jack Spicer’s “Poetry as Magic” workshop, Charles Olson’s west coast delivery of the Special View of History lectures and Duncan’s staging of Medea at Colchis were Cage’s classes on experimental composition at the New School for Social Research. While the Fluxus and Happenings movements that emerged from Cage’s New School course …

Les juifs honteux: La Question finkler
La Question finkler de Howard Jacobson est un « roman à clef », humoristique et profondément grave, qui permet au lecteur averti d'identifier dans l'œuvre des intellectuels et des artistes juifs anglais connus, qui se disent honteux de l'existence d'un État juif. Les antisionistes fictifs de Jacobson semblent exagérés, mais restent en deçà de leurs correspondants dans la réalité qui dépasse de loin l'audace imaginative de l'auteur. Ils jouent un …
Jewish Self-Hatred (1986)
Rare is the critique of Israel’s Jewish defamers that does not disparage them as “self-haters” or reject that time-dishonored label as grotesquely unsuited to people who seem rather to suffer from a self-love of prodigious proportions. Both schools of criticism might benefit from reconsidering the origins of this peculiarly Jewish phenomenon.
The Jewish Divide Over Israel: Accusers and Defenders
Jews Against Themselves
This volume features powerful essays by Edward Alexander on the phenomenon of anti-Zionism on the part of the Jewish intelligentsia. It also analyses the explosive growth of traditional anti-Semitism, especially in Europe, among intellectuals and Muslims. Alexander notes that anti-Zionism has established a presence even in Israel, where it frequently takes the form of intellectuals sympathizing with their country's enemies and perversely apologiz…

Past and Present: Some Reflections on American-Jewish Intellectuals
Benjamin Balint, Running Commentary: The Contentious Magazine that Transformed the Jewish Left into the Neoconservative Right
Running Commentary is the story of a magazine and also of the people who created it, nurtured it, quarreled about it, shaped or (according to detractors) misshaped it, sometimes abandoned and attacked it, during its long history. Balint calls these New York (mostly Jewish) intellectuals by the name Norman Podhoretz invented: “[They] resembled nothing so much as a loosely knit, self-formed Family ... bound by a common language and frame of referen…
The Jewish Divide Over Israel: Accusers and Defenders
Before 1967, had the overwhelming support of world opinion. So long as Israel's existence was in harmony with politically correct assumptions, it was supported, or at least accepted, by the majority of progressive Jews, especially in the wake of the Holocaust. This is no longer the case. Jewish Divide Over Israel explains the role played by prominent Jews in turning into an isolated pariah nation.After their catastrophic defeat in 1967, Arabs ove…
