Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Jews donate approximately $2.5 billion to Israel each year. Behind all that money and influence lies a power-sharing dynamic that has left an indelible mark on the relationship between Israeli and American Jews and on the direction of Israeli society to this day. Checkbook Zionism investigates how both parties have managed their interests, emotions, and attitudes about the important yet at times tense collaboration between them. By delving into the history of American Jews’ philanthropic giving to Israelis, Fleisch assesses the core nature of power sharing between both sides of the Jewish diaspora to the United States through in-depth contemporary case studies of the relationship between sixteen non-governmental organizations and their American Jewish donors. Field observation, document analysis, and interviews with leaders, activists, and select donors alike serve a critical role here, as Fleisch assesses whether these contemporary philanthropic associations repeat classic dynamics of power-sharing or whether they represent a marked departure from the Checkbook Zionism of old. The result is a new paradigm for evaluating power sharing that can be applied to future considerations of development in the Israel-Diaspora relationship.

The slogan has been given out to drown all opposi tion by a mighty chorus of victory shouts. And all this before the Peace Conference at Paris has made any declaration on the subject!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1900 over five million Jews lived in the Russian empire; today, there are four times as many Russian-speaking Jews residing outside the former Soviet Union than there are in that region. The New Jewish Diaspora is the first English-language study of the Russian-speaking Jewish diaspora. This migration has made deep marks on the social, cultural, and political terrain of many countries, in particular the United States, Israel, and Germany. The contributors examine the varied ways these immigrants have adapted to new environments, while identifying the common cultural bonds that continue to unite them. Assembling an international array of experts on the Soviet and post-Soviet Jewish diaspora, the book makes room for a wide range of scholarly approaches, allowing readers to appreciate the significance of this migration from many different angles. Some chapters offer data-driven analyses that seek to quantify the impact Russian-speaking Jewish populations are making in their adoptive countries and their adaptations there. Others take a more ethnographic approach, using interviews and observations to determine how these immigrants integrate their old traditions and affiliations into their new identities. Further chapters examine how, despite the oceans separating them, members of this diaspora form imagined communities within cyberspace and through literature, enabling them to keep their shared culture alive. Above all, the scholars in The New Jewish Diaspora place the migration of Russian-speaking Jews in its historical and social contexts, showing where it fits within the larger historic saga of the Jewish diaspora, exploring its dynamic engagement with the contemporary world, and pointing to future paths these immigrants and their descendants might follow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Canada-Israel Nexus is a comparative political history of two settler nations, their colonial past, their relations with the indigenous peoples on whose territories they created and imposed new states, and their close linkages to former and current imperial powers. The battle for justice in the Middle East involves treachery, terrorism, exile, apostasy, and, yes, conspiracy. It is the stuff of legend, of which Canada, Israel, and their relationship is a crucial part. The conflict of interests and rights between the colonizer and the colonized is central to this narrative, as is the relationship between Jews and the state in history, and how that relationship was transformed by the creation of a Jewish state.The history of Israel-Palestine is like an accelerated version of Canadia’s dispossession of native peoples, though with differing endgames: ethnic cleansing vs. forced assimilation. Canada is Israel’s ‘best friend’ — not just in former Conservative prime minister Harper’s words, or when a youthful Lester Pearson pushed through the plan for a separate Jewish state, leading to Israel’s creation and his own Nobel Peace prize — but in many little known and unexpected ways. On the other hand, Canadians have numbered among the few daring questioners of the Holocaust, for which they have paid dearly. Not least, this book examines the central question of the identity of Jews in Canada: will they be just that, with a primal loyalty to an Israeli homeland, or will they become Jewish Canadians, even anti-Zionist Canadians, melting easily into Canadian popular culture, itself replete with the influence of Jewish east European Yiddishkeit

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Zionism and the Jewish Diaspora At the same time we find that, in spite of the tenacity with which a people will defend the possession of its motherland, a great deal of this patriotism is governed by political considerations. We observe, for instance, that the French in Canada are indifferent to the fate of France; that the Germans in Austria and Switzerland, though once politically united with other Germans in their proximity, are relatively independent of the present German Reich. We have seen in the case of the United States of America that even a determined antagonism may grow up in a colony towards the home of the race. In the case of the Jews, in spite of distance of time and place, there has never been a definite divorce of the people from its religion and its land. It is remarkable that even those who are most insistent on their indifference to Palestine as the homeland of the Jewish people have taken great pains to interest themselves in that country. The Alliance Israelite Universelle and the Hilfsverein der Deutschen Juden, organisations which before the War competed primarily for the spread not of Jewish but of French and German influences respectively, devoted to Palestine a measure of their resources and energies quite out of proportion to the number of the Jewish inhabitants of that part, of the world. The reason for this instinctive attachment of the Jews to Palestine is to be found in the hold which the Land of Israel has exercised on the people of Israel from the very earliest times. If we go through the Books of Moses, from the call of Abraham till the entry of the children of Israel into the Promised Land, we find that the idea of the possession of that land as an integral part of the purpose and destiny of the people is a dominant note which is never absent in the history and legislation, in the discipline and the religion of those to whom God has given that supreme national blessing.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While most people view the Palestinian conflict as the greatest threat to Israel's survival, it is in fact only one of the nation's long-term concerns. Aside from terrorists seeking to destroy it, Israel must contend with tensions between religious and secular Jews, the demographic issues posed by a quickly growing Arab population, internal political divisions, and disputes over the water sources that are critical to its survival. In the face of these challenges, the country's future can seem precarious. Bard paints a realistic picture of the road ahead with a hopeful message: Israel will not only survive, but will endure long into the future.
