Not in Kansas Anymore: Academic Freedom in Palestinian Universities (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781649213679)

Not in Kansas Anymore, addresses this whole issue with exceptional thoroughness. Cary Nelson examines the state of academic freedom in Palestinian universities, and comments on the implications of this for the criticisms levelled by some Western academics, especially in the United States, against Israel's handling of this matter." --Eve Garrard, fathom

For years, anti-Zionist activists have accused Israel of undermining academic freedom and campus free speech in both Gaza and the West Bank. Not in Kansas Anymore demonstrates conclusively that the major threats to academic freedom come from Palestinians themselves, including from both the Palestinian Authority and from paramilitary and terrorist groups, Hamas most prominent among them. This is the first thoroughly researched and documented study of the status of academic freedom in Gaza and the West Bank.
