Borders and banknotes
Replacing a banknotes series is meaningful for politicians and the general public even today, while most transactions are executed through virtual means. The choice of images carried on banknotes represents the limits of the State's sovereign border and becomes a means of banal nationalism. Moreover, by utilising scopic regimes, the hegemony portrays the cultural and political borders: historical figures from the country's past on one side, and a…
Shifting boundaries
This article examines Israeli children's magazines that were published in the weeks preceding and following the 1967 war in order to show the ways in which the war and its consequences were presented to the children.

This analysis shows that the same character was used to support anti-semitic arguments as well as for a philo-…
