Jewish Anti-Zionism as Political Theology

Shaul Magid is Professor of Modern Judaism in Residence at Harvard Divinity School and author of nine books, most recently Meir Kahane: The Public Life and Political Thought of an American Jewish Radical and The Necessity of Exile: Essays from a Distance, and over two hundred scholarly and popular articles.

“At a time when unease is growing within parts of the Jewish world . . . and debate over identity, ethics, and power is reopening, this voice appears less marginal than once thought. . . . The UC Press volume offers the opportunity to read, without filters, one of the most radical and structured critiques of Zionism formulated from within the Jewish tradition itself.”
