Public Purposes at Cross-Purposes
All democracies grapple with the challenge of fostering the inclusion of marginalized minorities. Israel faces a looming economic crisis constituted by the growing population of Haredim (Ultra-Orthodox Jews) living under the poverty line. Israel's Council on Higher Education (CHE or Malag) instituted a program to integrate Haredi students into Israeli universities, and ultimately, the workforce. But the CHE plan capitulates to the Haredi claim of…
Strange Love
Drawing on the function of flatness, stasis, and simultaneity in Soviet Georgian-Armenian director Sergei Parajanov's films, this article focuses on Parajanov's reimagination of the revolutionary avant-garde cinematic language of sensuous thought as an anti-colonial aesthetic project that echoes non-aligned trajectories. Parajanov's films perform Soviet Orientalism in drag, upending the lyric dimensions of an ethno-nationalist cinema as he recast…
"Not as Sheep Led to Slaughter"? On Trauma, Selective Memory, and the Making of Historical Consciousness
A major post-Holocaust psychoethical dilemma seems to be the product of a collective repression of a long pre–World War II history that has almost disappeared from modern memory. In this forgotten past, the contested victim trope—"as sheep to slaughter"—that aroused much concern in the wake of the Holocaust had in fact been alive for centuries. Amazingly, its negation, the call for resistance "not as sheep led to slaughter," has had an even longe…
On Plural Universes
The debate between Gersonides and Crescas on the question of plural universes is addressed, with details of their arguments for their positions and the conceptual frameworks within which they developed their ideas. Also considered is the view current among several leading scholars, who claim that Christian Scholasticism had a significant impact upon the doctrines of both Gersonides and Crescas. This thesis is examined and rejected: both Gersonide…
Abraham the Settler, Jesus the Refugee
By examining tour brochures, practices of landscape display, posters and tour guiding narrations, I seek to understand how Bethlehem and the separation wall between Jerusalem and Bethlehem are integrated into the experience of Western Christian pilgrims of a variety of theological orientations. I argue that current practices of display and narration promote particular political views of the Israeli Palestinian conflict, and lend them authority by…

This fine book demonstrates how to read texts about domestic interior decoration—the arranging of the private home—f…
Home as a Refrain
This article explores the "refrain of home" among Palestinian refugees in Gaza in the first years after their displacement in 1948. Relying on narrative accounts of the 1948 war and its aftermath, it traces people's changing relations with their lost homes. It explores people's memories of home before 1948 and considers four principal moments in the post-displacement transformation: exile itself, returns across the armistice line to retrieve poss…
