New book by Prof. Noam Zadoff: Geschichte Israels: Von der Staatsgründung bis zur Gegenwart

1/12/2021

 
Bild
In the fall of 2020, a new book by Prof. Noam Zadoff came out: “Geschichte Israels: Von der Staatsgründung bis zur Gegenwart“. The book analyses the recent history of the State of Israel.
The small state of Israel, founded in 1948 as a safe haven for Jews from all over the world, is today economically and militarily strong - and yet has not found the normality and security it had hoped for.
​The book  recounts the country‘s history from Zionist immigration through conflicts with its Arab neighbors and Palestinian population to the present, showing the impact that key events have had on culture and society. 
The book is a delightfully factual introduction for everyone who is not indifferent to the small country Israel, which is full of contradictions.

Read an extract from the book here:

The following topics will be addressed: relations between the individual and society, questions about the limits of freedom, philosophical issues derived from the tension between freedom of will and necessity, etc. Focus will also be given on the ongoing centrality of freedom in politics, philosophy, and art that has also subjected freedom to attacks and restrictions, manifested in tensions that seethe with particular intensity at times of crisis.

Online Seminar "Israel and The Six-Day War"

9/30/2020

 
Prof. Noam Zadoff from the Institute of Contemporary History at the University of Innsbruck will teach the online seminar "Israel and The Six-Day War" this upcoming winter semester!

The seminar is designed for every student that is interested in learning about the Six-Day War in Israel, which raged from June 5-10, 1967, and resulted in a swift and surprising victory of Israel over its neighboring countries. As a result of this armed conflict, Israel gained control over relatively large territories and also within the Israeli society radical changes were taking place.
In this course, various texts will be read and analyzed that were written in the aftermath of the war. By that students will seek to have a better understanding of the impact of spring 1967 on Israeli society and politics.
