{"product_id":"arthur-ruppin-and-the-production-etan-bloom-9789004203792","title":"Arthur Ruppin and the Production of Pre-Israeli Culture","description":"Arthur Ruppin's immense contribution to the Zionist movement gave him the title \"The Father of Jewish\/Zionist settlement in Palestine.\" Nevertheless, the common narrative sets Ruppin's historical persona in an ambivalent position and suppresses his formative role and heritage. Part of the reason for this is that, in many ways, his history causes a crack to appear in the Zionist national \"cover stories.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis study utilizes innovative archival research and contains provocative theses which make us view the foundation of Israeli culture differently. It addresses the cultural interaction between the German \u003ci\u003eSonderweg\u003c\/i\u003e, with all its proto-Nazi and \u003ci\u003evölkische\u003c\/i\u003e ideas, and Palestinian Zionism. The study therefore exposes the sources and presence of internal Jewish racism while also analysing the anti-Semitic aspect of Pre-Israeli culture. A particularly important section details Ruppin's crucial influence on the Labor Movement and the colonization of the Land of Israel\/Palestine.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Etan Bloom\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9004203796\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789004203792\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Brill\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/18\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 418\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.75lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.40h x 6.40w x 1.10d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eReference and Research Bk News\u003c\/i\u003e 06\/01\/2011 pg. 37","brand":"Etan Bloom","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48871400571135,"sku":"9789004203792","price":258.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/arthur-ruppin-and-the-production-etan-bloom-9789004203792","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
