SCHEMEL FORUM SPRING 2016 LUNCHEON SERIES
Shared Paths, Divergent Courses: Zionism and Palestinian Nationalism
This lecture will explore the entwined paths of Zionism and Palestinian nationalism. A deeper understanding of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians requires an integrated historical account that considers together the aspirations and actions of Jews and Arabs to achieve national self-determination in Palestine/Israel. The presentation will conclude with reflections on possible ways forward despite the impasse.
David Myers, Ph.D., Sady and Ludwig Kahn Professor of Jewish History, UCLA
