Description

Palestine in Israeli School Books: Ideology and Propaganda in Education The education system in Israel plays a significant role in shaping its young people's understanding of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This complex issue is deeply ingrained in the country's history, and it is essential to examine how the school system prepares its students for this reality. Nurit Peled-Elhanan analyzes the presentation of images, maps, layouts, and language use in History, Geography, and Civic Studies textbooks, revealing how they might marginalize Palestinians, legitimize Israeli military action, and reinforce Jewish-Israeli territorial identity. This book provides a fresh scholarly contribution to the Israeli-Palestinian debate. By exploring the ideology and propaganda present in Israel's school books, Peled-Elhanan sheds light on the complex dynamics of this conflict and its impact on education.
