Theater in Israel
The first book-length investigation of theater and drama in Israel
The Holocaust in Three Generations
Victims and Perpetrators What form does the dialogue about the family past during the Nazi period take in families of those persecuted by the Nazi regime and in families of Nazi perpetrators and bystanders? What impact does the past of the first generation, and their own way of dealing with it have on the lives of their children and grandchildren? What are the differences between the dialogue about the family past and the Holocaust in families of Nazi perpetrators and in families of Holocaust survivors? This book examines these questions on the basis of selected case studies.
Genetic Responsibility in Germany and Israel
Prenatal diagnosis, especially noninvasive prenatal testing (NIPT), has changed the experience of pregnancy, prenatal care and responsibilities in Israel and Germany in different ways. These differences reflect the countries' historical legacies, medico-legal policies, normative and cultural identities. Building on this observation, the contributors of this book present conversations between leading scholars from Israel and Germany based on an empirical bioethical perspective, analyses about the reshaping of 'life' by biomedicine, and philosophical reflections on socio-cultural claims and epistemic horizons of responsibilities. Practices and discussions of reproductive medicine transform the concepts of responsibility and irresponsibility.
Facts on the Ground
Archaeology in Israel is truly a national obsession, a practice through which national identity—and national rights—have long been asserted. But how and why did archaeology emerge as such a pervasive force there? How can the practices of archaeology help answer those questions? In this stirring book, Nadia Abu El-Haj addresses these questions and specifies for the first time the relationship between national ideology, colonial settlement, and the production of historical knowledge. She analyzes particular instances of history, artifacts, and landscapes in the making to show how archaeology helped not only to legitimize cultural and political visions but, far more powerfully, to reshape them. Moreover, she places Israeli archaeology in the context of the broader discipline to determine what unites the field across its disparate local traditions and locations. Boldly uncovering an Israel in which science and politics are mutually constituted, this book shows the ongoing role that archaeology plays in defining the past, present, and future of Palestine and Israel.
Deutsche und zentraleuropäische Juden in Palästina und Israel
Lange Jahre waren im kollektiven Gedächtnis sowie in der Geschichtsschreibung über die 'Jeckes' genannten Migrantinnen und Migranten aus Deutschland und Zentraleuropa zwei Narrative dominierend: Während das eine artikuliert, dass diese sich nur begrenzt in die bereits bestehende jüdische Gesellschaft des britischen Mandatsgebiets Palästina und Israels integriert hätten, betont das andere ihren positiven Beitrag zur Modernisierung des Landes. Beide Narrative sind nicht unbedingt konkurrierend, sondern ergänzen sich, beiden liegt zumeist dasselbe normative Diktum zugrunde – der Aufbau von Stadt, Land und Staat als jener Maßstab, an dem eine Migrantengruppe zu messen sei. Doch so zäh...
The Temple of Jerusalem: From Moses to the Messiah
The Temple of Jerusalem: From Moses to the Messiah brings together an interdisciplinary and broad-ranging international community of scholars to discuss aspects of the history and continued life of the Jerusalem Temple in Western culture, from biblical times to the present. This volume is the fruit of the inaugural conference of the Yeshiva University Center for Israel Studies, which convened in New York City on May 11-12, 2008 and honors Professor Louis H. Feldman, Abraham Wouk Family Professor of Classics and Literature at Yeshiva University.
Human Rights under State-Enforced Religious Family Laws in Israel, Egypt and India
About one-third of the world's population currently lives under pluri-legal systems where governments hold individuals subject to the purview of ethno-religious rather than national norms in respect to family law. How does the state-enforcement of these religious family laws impact fundamental rights and liberties? What resistance strategies do people employ in order to overcome the disabilities and limitations these religious laws impose upon their rights? Based on archival research, court observations and interviews with individuals from three countries, Yüksel Sezgin shows that governments have often intervened in order to impress a particular image of subjectivity upon a society, while people have constantly challenged the interpretive monopoly of courts and state-sanctioned religious institutions, re-negotiated their rights and duties under the law, and changed the system from within. He also identifies key lessons and best practices for the integration of universal human rights principles into religious legal systems.

Inhaltsangabe:Problemstellung: Während die Situation am Weltmarkt immer komplexer wird, sich der internationale Wettbewerb verschärft, die Kundenanforderungen steigen und sich der Lebenszyklus der Produkte und Erzeugnisse verkürzt, wird es für Unternehmen immer wichtiger, weltweit einen gleichen Verfahrens- und Qualitätsstandard zu bieten, aber dennoch flexibel auf Kundenwünsche reagieren zu können.
