réf. B9780755646890Paperback / softback. New. How did the Israeli military learn to cope with the ubiquity of media technologies that routinely document their power abuses Why did they re-appropriate these to tighten their grip on Palestinian civilians This book explains why a high-tech nation with advanced military technologies came to rely on the everyday media habits performed by soldiers and civilians. Daniel Mann argues that the intensification of the security regime in Palestine and the increasingly personal use of media technologies by both soldiers and civilians are deeply entangled. The book traces how beginning in the 1990s the integration of media into the lives of civilians and Israeli soldiers enabled Israel to transfer responsibilities to individual users who in turn became legally and ethically liable for state abuses of power. Drawing on declassified documents found footage and social media Mann shows how both media and warfare have been remodelled around the figure of the defensive isolated and insular ‘individual’. Mann suggests that the focus on representations and their close visual analysis paradoxically hinders our ability to understand media. Instead of zooming into fine details we must step back to reveal the assemblage of images users and infrastructure that together serve to maintain the racial legal and aesthetic divide between Israel and Palestine. paperback

réf. B9780813551821Paperback / softback. New. Scholars in the humanities have become increasingly interested in questions of how space is produced and perceived-and they have found that this consideration of human geography greatly enriches our understanding of cultural history. This ""spatial turn" equally has the potential to revolutionize Jewish Studies complicating familiar notions of Jews as ""people of the Book" displaced persons with only a common religious tradition and history to unite them. Space and Place in Jewish Studies embraces these exciting critical developments by investigating what ""space" has meant within Jewish culture and tradition-and how notions of ""Jewish space" diaspora and home continue to resonate within contemporary discourse bringing space to the foreground as a practical and analytical category. Barbara Mann takes us on a journey from medieval Levantine trade routes to the Eastern European shtetl to the streets of contemporary New York introducing readers to the variety of ways in which Jews have historically formed communities and created a sense of place for themselves. Combining cutting-edge theory with rabbinics anthropology and literary analysis Mann offers a fresh take on the Jewish experience. paperback
