A State on Trial: Hannah Arendt vs. the State of Israel
Idith Zertal A State on Trial: Hannah Arendt vs. the State of Israel W HETHER SHE LIKED IT OR NOT, ARENDT WAS AN EXCEPTIONAL W OMAN in her own way, as much as she was, apparently, malgre elle, an “excep tion Jewess.”1And equipped precisely with both just qualities and repu tations she burst into the national classroom to wreak havoc as Israel’s mythical founder and political leader, David Ben-Gurion, was holding his last great national undertak…
The Ghetto vs. the Gun
Israel's Holocaust and the Politics of Nationhood
The ghost of the Holocaust is ever present in Israel, in the lives and nightmares of the survivors and in the absence of the victims. In this compelling and disturbing analysis, Idith Zertal, a leading member of the new generation of revisionist historians in Israel, considers the ways Israel has used the memory of the Holocaust to define and legitimize its existence and politics. Drawing on a wide range of sources, the author exposes the pivotal…
From Catastrophe to Power: Holocaust Survivors and the Emergence of Israel
In a book certain to generate controversy and debate, Idith Zertal boldly interprets a much revered chapter in contemporary Jewish and Zionist history: the clandestine immigration to Palestine of Jewish refugees, most of them Holocaust survivors, that was organized by Palestinian Zionists just after World War II. Events that captured the attention of the world, such as the Exodus affair in the summer 1947, are seen here in a strikingly new light.…

The Bearers and the Burdens: Holocaust Survivors in the Discourse of Zionism
Connaissance et culpabilité: Les Juifs de Palestine face à l'extermination des Juifs en Europe
Quand Yitzhak (Antek) Zuckermann, l'un des chefs historiques de la Résistance juive dans le ghetto de Varsovie, est mort dans son kibboutz voici une dizaine d'années, on trouva dans ses effets personnels un enregistrement de sa voix. Le vieux combattant, qui préparait un film documentaire sur la Shoah et les Juifs de Palestine, y donnait libre cours à son amertume : « Le pays d'Israël, notre pays bien-aimé, ne nous a pas aimés [...]. On nous a ab…
