The Military and Militarism in Israeli Society

329 Seiten, Taschenbuch

Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Investigates the cultural and social constructions of issues related to war, the armed forces, and national security in Israel.The Military and Militarism in Israeli Society systematically examines the cultural and social construction of 'things military' within Israel. Contributors from comparative literature, film studies, sociology, anthropology, geography, history, and cultural studies explore the arenas in which the centrality of military matters are produced and reproduced by the state and by other public bodies. Analysis is presented using three perspectives: the production and reproduction of collective representations; the dynamics of gender, voice, and resistance; and the construction of individual life-worlds.
