FOUR ESSAYS ON PALESTINE by Ben Burgis (Print and Digital Edition)

We are reprinting in the new design. You should expect to get your pamphlet by February. Pre-ordering it helps us with our numbers, so we appreciate your patience.

If we want to oppose Zionism (i.e. Israeli Jewish ethnonationalism), should we do that by vicariously adopting Palestinian ethnonationalism, or by appealing to absolutely universal standards of democracy and human rights?

In these four essays on Palestine, Ben Burgis explores this question - and others that arise from this crisis - from the perspective of the Left. Directly tackling a topic which many either avoid or reduce to oppositional side-taking, Burgis examines the crises and our responses to it in full. The collection ranges from essays aimed at 'convincing normies' of the legitimacy of a Leftist approach to philosophical reflections on what the Left has become and how it thinks. 

Ben Burgis is a Jacobin columnist, an adjunct philosophy professor at Rutgers University, and the host of the YouTube show and podcast Give Them An Argument. He’s the author of several books, most recently Christopher Hitchens: What He Got Right, How He Went Wrong, and Why He Still Matters.
