Hebrew Fascism in Palestine, 1922-1942 (eBook, PDF)

Beschreibung

This book focuses on a little-studied yet virulent and devoted fascist faction that was active within Zionist circles during the 1920s and 1930s. Since the early 1930s, the term 'fascist' was regularly used by Labour Zionists in order to defame their right-wing opponents, the 'Revisionists'. The latter group, for its part, tended to reject such accusations. Up to this point, however, little comprehensive research has been carried out for examining the possible existence of a genuine Hebrew fascism in Palestine according to a global comparative model of generic fascism. This book is an attempt to do so, examining the first wave of fascism in Palestine, during the inter-war period.

The current discussion in Israel about rising fascist movements and organisations gained momentum during the past decade. Telling the story of a yet relatively neglected part of the roots of the Israeli right wing may not only shed light on the past, but also provide us with a historical perspective when measuring contemporary political movements and events.

"The book's subject matter is fascinating, and Tamir has clearly undertaken a mammoth amount of archival work in order to bring to life, once again, some very important, forgotten voices and some very important, forgotten journals. ... Tamir's research very thorough, and his passion for the subject very evident indeed. ... Hebrew Fascism in Palestine, 1922-1942 is, nonetheless, a solid new addition to the body of scholarship on the subject." (Peter Bergamin, Israel Studies Review, Vol. 35 (1), 2020)
