This book is a multidisciplinary discussion of the possibility of Jewish critique, addressing intersections between Jewish Studies and critical paradigms in this moment of crisis. It traces how dominant modes of critique at times reproduce supersessionist and progress-oriented perspectives that foreclose critical possibilities offered by non-linear temporalities and only partially representable pasts. The contributors explore unexpected resonances between Mizrahi critique and Black thought, between the Palestinian and Jewish questions, and between Jewish practice and queer disruptions of traditionalist continuity, among others.
