"In her fine-grained ethnography, Fiona Wright offers a compelling account of the complexities and ambivalences that attend anti-occupation activism in Israel. Beyond its mooring in Israel and Palestine, The Israeli Radical Left is a powerful examination of the ways in which anticolonial politics can become intimately entangled with the colonial logic it opposes." (Rebecca L. Stein, Duke University) "How to act politically and responsibly in an environment that requires complicity with state-sanctioned oppression as part of everyday life may be the ethical dilemma of our time. Fiona Wright takes up the challenge of addressing it and makes major contributions to the fields of political anthropology and the anthropology of ethics. Read this book; it is extraordinary." (Jarrett Zigon, author of A War on People: Drug User Politics and a New Ethics of Community) "In a world increasingly driven by the search for purity in political struggles, Wright carefully and courageously focuses on the complicity and ambiguity intrinsic to ethics and politics. Examining the Israeli Radical Left, who reject the Israeli state while simultaneously being embedded in and affectively formed by it, she explores what politics means for those who desire equality and yet benefit from the privileges of inequality. This book takes the anthropology of ethics and politics into new, important terrain, opening a space for political hope in contamination." (Miriam Ticktin, The New School) "The Israeli Radical Left is a powerful book that offers a refreshing, profound, and important intervention in the literature on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Fiona Wright delves with great sensitivity and a keen critical eye into the imbrication of ethics and politics and the activists' own grappling with complicity as they try (and fail and try and fail and try) to shape the contours of their uncomfortable ethical-political engagement." (Lihi Ben Shitrit, University of Georgia)
