Overcoming Zionism

Meer over het boek

The book presents a critical analysis of Israel's human rights record, asserting that state-sponsored racism against Arabs parallels apartheid South Africa. Kovel advocates for a one-state solution as the path to peace, emphasizing the incompatibility of Zionism with democratic ideals. Drawing on his extensive knowledge of the Middle East, he explores the emotional and psychological dimensions of Zionism, linking ideology, culture, and politics. Kovel ultimately argues that a two-state solution is futile, as it empowers regressive nationalism, perpetuating conflict.
