Radical Jewish Politics A Global Perspective

"By foregrounding the experience of Jews in the modern Middle East and North Africa, this exciting volume recharts the historiography of radical Jewish politics on a global scale, presented in all of its drama, depth, and diversity." - Ilan Benattar, Robert F. & Patricia G. Ross Weis Visiting Assistant Professor of Judaic Studies & History, Franklin

"Placing the Middle East and North Africa at its center, this important volume challenges conventional geographies and the conception of Jewish radicalism itself. It shows how colonialism, and in turn anticolonial movements, drove Jews to embrace radical politics as they navigated the rise of the nation state and their future in it." - Elizabeth E. Imber, author of Uncertain Empire: Jews, Nationalism, and the Fate of British Imperialism
