The course deals with the Israeli society and focused in particular upon the construction of the Israeli historical narrative as an identity-building narrative, intending to inculcate a collective memory to a diverse society. We will focus on key events and essential representations that shaped the collective identity of the Israeli society from the beginning of the Zionist movement till the present. We will also discuss the changes that the Israeli society experiences in the last generation and how it affects its politics and culture. Among other topics, we will discuss issues such as religious Zionism, post-Zionism, privatization and Americanization, holocaust's increasing role in the Israeli historical narrative and national memory, diversity and multiculturalism, and the enduring conflict with the Palestinians and the Arab world.Detailed TopicsWeek no. 1:
