Jews And Israel in Arab-Palestinian Intellectual Discourse, Part II
Update: 2024-04-16
Description
The lecture delves into a complex historical narrative surrounding Jewish experiences and the evolution of Zionism within the broader context of European and Russian history. It addresses the violent pogroms and discriminatory policies against Jews in Russia, particularly during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, which precipitated mass Jewish emigration to countries like the United States. The narrative highlights how the rise of communism, despite some Jewish involvement, was not a Jewish-led movement. The discussion further explores the impact of these historical events on the trajectory of Jewish migration and the development of Zionist ideology, particularly through figures like Theodor Herzl, who emphasized the urgent need for a Jewish homeland as a response to growing antisemitism and societal upheaval in Europe. The lecture underscores the multifaceted nature of Jewish history, emphasizing the complex interplay of socio-political factors that shaped Jewish identity and migration patterns during this turbulent period.
