Binationalism Reconsidered: Buber, Scholem, Arendt and the Present of Israel/Palestine

Thema:
The idea of binationalism was first introduced into the context of Palestine in the 1920s by a group of intellectuals, most of them from German origin, among them some of the most prominent Jewish intellectuals of the twentieth century like Gershom Scholem, Martin Buber, Hans Kohn, Hugo Bergmann and later Hannah Arendt. The idea of binationalism was reintroduced in recent years by some Jewish and Palestinian figures, against the background of the "Peace Process" and its collapse. This lecture intends to present the ideas of the early representatives of the idea, to analyze them within the general framework of the writings of these figures and to reflect on the relevance of this thinking for both the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and for Europe.
Amnon Raz-Krakotzkin is a senior lecturer in the department of Jewish history, Ben-Gurion University. He studies both early modern Christian-Jewish discourse and Zionist historical consciousness. Among his publications are: The Censor, the Editor and the Text: Catholic Censorship and Hebrew Literature in the Sixteenth Century, 2005; Exile Within Sovereignty (in Hebrew); Exile et Binationalisme (La fabrique, Paris); Orientalism, Jewish Studies and Israeli Society (in Hebrew). He has been a Fellow of the Wissenschaftskolleg zu Berlin in 2003/4 and is a member of the Kollegium of Europe in the Middle East - The Middle East in Europe.
