  • Estonia’s Russian Speakers

    Open AccessYehezkel Lein, Oren YiftachelARTICLEEurope Asia Studies2026

    This article explores the enduring presence of Russian speakers in Estonia through the lens of a novel theoretical framework: contiguous settler colonialism. It highlights the settler colonial nature of the Soviet regime and posits that geographical contiguity between a metropole and its colony discourages settler self-determination and lessens the likelihood of mass exodus post-decolonisation. Settlers who remain typically develop hybrid identit…

  • Afrikaners in postcolonial Namibia

    Yehezkel LeinARTICLENational Identities2026Referências: 12

    This article examines the endurance of white Afrikaners in postcolonial Namibia. It advances two theoretical hypotheses: first, that settler projects in territories contiguous to metropoles follow distinct dynamics, introducing the concept of contiguous settler colonialism; second, that settlers’ vulnerability in postcolonial states tend to generate a strong sense of place, encouraging their persistence. Based on interviews with Namibian Afrikane…

The empirical analysis identifies three k…

  • The Holy City in Human Dimensions

    Open AccessYehezkel LeinARTICLENetherlands Quarterly of Human…2008

    In the failed final-status negotiations that Israel and the Palestinian Authority held in 2000, the sides reached agreement on the main parameters of a solution on the question of Jerusalem. However, both sides ignored the fact that according to these parameters, East Jerusalem Palestinians would be denied almost completely their social security entitlements under the Israeli social security system. This article argues that, regardless of what wi…

  • Disputed Waters

    Yehezkel LeinARTICLEJournal for the Study of Religion…2000

    Water is the most basic resource for human existence. It is vital for human life itself and for personal health and hygiene. Israel’s citizens, like those of other developed countries, benefit year-round from running water in unlimited quantities to meet their household needs. For Israelis, running tap water is taken for granted
