The Other Side of the Coin. The Negative Impact of Zionism on Mizrahi Jews (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9783668451131)

Seminar paper from the year 2014 in the subject History - Miscellaneous, grade: 1,0, University of Potsdam (Historisches Institut), course: Utopia in Distress: Israeli Politics and Society, language: English, abstract: The focus of this paper is primarily going to be set on the downsides of Zionism for Oriental Jews who arrived from the 1950s to the 1970s. Hereby, I claim that the Zionist movement has not been a liberation movement for all Jews, but rather worked in favor of the Ashkenazim. I will support this claim by displaying not only the disadvantages Zionism carried for Mizrahim but also by examining the unequal treatment of the Sephardim which show parallels to colonial oppression.
