Description
A provocative study of the relationship between Jewish identity and the state of Israel, drawing on the Talmud and rabbinical laws, this book challenges the notion of a secular state and argues that religious orthodoxies have shaped the country's development. Israel Shahak, a Jewish scholar who survived the Holocaust, examines the roots of Jewish chauvinism and religious fanaticism, offering a rare and thought-provoking critique of Israel's policies. A timely and important work that will spark debate and discussion.
