{"product_id":"religious-zionism-and-the-six-avi-sagi-9781138353855","title":"Religious Zionism and the Six Day War: From Realism to Messianism","description":"\u003cp\u003eThis book offers a new insight into the political, social, and religious conduct of religious-Zionism, whose consequences are evident in Israeli society today. Before the Six-Day War, religious-Zionism had limited its concern to the protection of specific religious interests, with its representatives having little share in the determination of Israel's national agenda. Fifty years after it, religious-Zionism has turned into one of Israeli society's dominant elements. The presence of this group in all aspects of Israel's life and its members' determination to set Israel's social, cultural, and international agenda is indisputable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDelving into this dramatic transformation, the book depicts the Six-Day War as a constitutive event that indelibly changed the political and religious consciousness of religious-Zionists. The perception of real history that had guided this movement from its dawn was replaced by a \"sacred history\" approach that became an actual program of political activity. As part of a process that has unfolded over the last thirty years, the body and sexuality have also become a central concern in the movement's practice, reflection, and discourse. The how and why of this shift in religious-Zionism - from passivity and a consciousness of marginality to the front lines of public life - is this book's central concern.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe book will be of interest to readers and scholars concerned with changing dynamic societies and with the study of religion and particularly with the relationship between religion and politics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Avi Sagi,Dov Schwartz\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 113835385X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781138353855\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/04\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 134\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.83lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.38d","brand":"Avi Sagi","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48087728750847,"sku":"9781138353855","price":190.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_8591fb3b-c4e5-421f-a47d-7f743f2f26d9.jpg?v=1769101074","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/religious-zionism-and-the-six-avi-sagi-9781138353855","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
