PEACE AND FAITH: Christian Churches and the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict, composed of new essays, is the first collection to bring together writers from different faith communities to discuss the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement’s impact on one of the more fractious topics addressed by Christian denominations: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. In so doing, it builds on interfaith projects under way for decades. Theology and politics intermingle in debates taking place in local churches, Christian NGOs, and national church meetings that define official policy. The debates revive and reframe the most basic values of Christianity and the questions church members seek to resolve: How do Christians today hew to the principles Jesus articulated? How can justice be pursued in the context of competing national narratives and historical understandings? What bearing do or should centuries of Christian violence against Jews and Muslims have on contemporary theology and ethics? Is it ethical, or even possible, to set aside millennia of Christian anti-Semitism in judging Israel’s conduct? What Christian values should be honored in pursuing Jesus’s mission of reconciliation today? How may the pursuit of truth be corrupted by passionate social witness? Can advocacy cross the line into hatred? These are among the critical questions this collection poses and attempts to address.

Pour l'État d'Israël, la principale source d'exportation vers l'Occident n'est pas faite de mandarines ou d'avocats, ni même d'armement ou de systèmes sécuritaires : l'essentiel, c'est la promotion d'une image, celle de l' « énergie créative » pour tout ce qui touche à la culture. « Les produits israéliens comme la littérature, la musique, la danse, le cinéma, l'art, la gastronomie, la science et les technologies, l'architecture et l'histoire sont des domaines culturels susceptibles de toucher les publics cible, particulièrement en Europe » explique un ex-député du parti de gauche Meretz. Or cette vitrine culturelle, comme le prestige international de l'université israélienne, masquent une tout autre réalité : les liens entre cette université et l'institution militaire, le rôle de l'université dans la recherche de nouveaux outils de combat et de renseignement, la discrimination des étudiants palestiniens, l'absence de protestation contre les guerres menées à Gaza… Et l'évidence que les écrivains, artistes et cinéastes du soi-disant Camp de la paix, d'Amos Oz à Amos Gitaï ou David Grossman, ne sont que des dissidents officiels tout à fait inoffensifs. C'est cette réalité-là qui explique le succès exponentiel du boycott académique et culturel dans le monde entier – et les réactions très vives du pouvoir israélien contre ce qu'il considère désormais comme une « menace existentielle ». Ce boycott ne concerne pas les personnes mais les institutions et ceux qu'elles soutiennent. Il n'est ni un obstacle au dialogue, ni un frein à l'action d'une « gauche sioniste » muette et paralytique. Il est un mode de résistance pacifique et parfaitement légitime.

"Lives in Solidarity is an intimate and compelling description of BDS activism among Muslims living in two different cultural contexts, England and Bosnia. Unlike public discussions of BDS activism that lack nuance, it looks at why Muslims engage in BDS activism, what it means to them, and how they implement it in their individual and collective lives. Not only is this a thoughtful ethnography of a critical but often ignored dimension of BDS activism, it is also an important corrective to scholarship that treats affective, ethical, and passionate attachments as inconsequential to politics"--

Störungen, Boykotte, Absagen: Eine schwere Diskurskrise hat den Kulturbetrieb erfasst. Brisante Fragen von Identität und Zugehörigkeit werden zugespitzt verhandelt, Streitthemen und -formate passen nicht mehr zusammen, toxische Eskalationen schaden dem Ruf der Häuser. Karin Bjerregaard Schlüter und Ralf Schlüter gehen den Ursachen der Diskurskrise auf den Grund und zeigen, wie Museen, Theater und Hochschulen Shitstorms und Skandalen vorbeugen und ihren Betrieb sichern können. Ausgehend vom digitalen Raum vermitteln sie Methoden und Werkzeuge, um Debatten mitzugestalten und die eigene Position auch in einer digitalisierten Öffentlichkeit zu behaupten - abgestimmt auf aktuelle Diskursfelder und ihre medialen Settings.

In October 1934 the northern Spanish region of Asturias was the scene of the most important outburst of revolution in Europe between the early 1920s and the Spanish Civil War. Thousands of left-wing militants took up arms and fought the Spanish army in the streets of Oviedo while in the rear-guard committees proclaimed a revolutionary dawn. After two weeks, however, the insurrection was crushed and the widespread repression was central to the polarization and fragmentation of Spanish politics prior to the Civil War (1936-9). Weaving together a range of everyday disputes and arenas of conflict, from tenant activism to strikes, boycotts to political violence, Unite, Proletarian Brothers! reveals how local cleavages and conflicts operating within the context of the Spanish Second Republic (1931-6) and interwar Europe explain the origins, development and consequences of the Asturian October. The book sheds new light on the long-debated process of ‘radicalization’ during the Second Republic, as well as the wider questions of protest, revolutionary politics and social and political conflict in inter-war Europe.

The Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement (BDS) has expanded rapidly though controversially in the United States in the last five years. The academic boycott of Israeli academic institutions is a key component of this movement. What is this boycott? Why does it make sense? And why is this an American Studies issue? In this short essential book, Sunaina Maira addresses these key questions. Boycott! situates the academic boycott in the broader history of boycotts in the United States as well as in Palestine and shows how it has evolved into a transnational social movement that has spurred profound intellectual and political shifts. It explores the movement's implications for antiracist, feminist, queer, and academic labor organizing and examines the boycott in the context of debates about Palestine, Zionism, race, rights-based politics, academic freedom, decolonization, and neoliberal capitalism.

cet ouvrage raconte en seize pages l'épisode qui a vu les militants pour les droits civiques boycotter les bus de la bourgade de l'Etat d'Alabama. Un mouvement qui débuta en 1955 et se poursuivit jusqu'en décembre 1956, et consistait en une opposition non violente à la politique de ségrégation menée par la ville. Le comics avait été commandité par une organisation pacifique The Fellowship of Reconciliation et avait été réalisé par des artistes anonymes. L'ouvrage a servi de base d'enseignement de la méthode de protestation non violente.
