Table of ContentsReviewsConflicts offers a powerful combination of literary, political and philosophical critique to explore the asymmetries of what is known as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Mor takes apart the concept of conflict itself and exposes its colonial legacy and the illusion of symmetry between two even powers that it has produced.---Chana Kronfeld, University of California, Berkeley This ambitious book argues that the 'Israeli-Palestinian conflict' is simply not a conflict. In deconstructing this central yet misleading political paradigm, along with its historical uses and abuses, the author explores the uncharted cultural war zones between Hebrew and Palestinian cultural production while also offering a multi-layered discussion of Mizrahi identity and literature. Choosing not to follow in the trodden path of her predecessors in the field, Mor thus emerges as a 'discourse initiator' who establishes a new beginning, in the Saidian sense.---Anton Shammas, author of Arabesques """Conflicts offers a powerful combination of literary, political and philosophical critique to explore the asymmetries of what is known as the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
