Summary

How might the idea of social transformation be stimulated in the state of Israel, a society with a historical investment in producing a deprivation of life? After Israel argues that militarism, the state of war, and the ethnic divide must all go; but crucially, it asserts that this will never be achieved through any form of imposed political model.

This bold and original book claims that a future of mutual prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians depends on two interconnected forces: collaborative struggle and cultural innovation. It examines practices such as Arabic-Hebrew bilingual education, various ArabJewish activist networks, and the emergence of a number of arts and culture activities and groups.

Calling for the scrambling of identity categories in order to break down ethnic divides, this book shows how the cultivation of new social, cultural, and professional practices can overcome the dialogical disabilities born out of the Zionist historical triumph.
