Facts on the Ground – Archaeological Practice and Territorial Self–Fashioning in Israeli Society
Archaeology in Israel is truly a national obsession, a practice through which national identity—and national rights—have long been asserted. But how and why did archaeology emerge as such a pervasive force there? How can the practices of archaeology help answer those questions? In this stirring book, Nadia Abu El-Haj addresses these questions and specifies for the first time the relationship between national ideology, colonial settlement, and the production of historical knowledge. She analyzes particular instances of history, artifacts, and landscapes in the making to show how archaeology helped not only to legitimize cultural and political visions but, far more powerfully, to reshape them. Moreover, she places Israeli archaeology in the context of the broader discipline to determine what unites the field across its disparate local traditions and locations. Boldly uncovering an Israel in which science and politics are mutually constituted, this book shows the ongoing role that archaeology plays in defining the past, present, and future of Palestine and Israel.

The Genealogical Science

The Genealogical Science analyzes the scientific work and social implications of the flourishing field of genetic history. A biological discipline that relies on genetic data in order to reconstruct the geographic origins of contemporary populations - their histories of migration and genealogical connections to other present-day groups - this historical science is garnering ever more credibility and social reach, in large part due to a growing industry in ancestry testing. In this book, Nadia Abu El-Haj examines genetic history's working assumptions about culture and nature, identity and biology, and the individual and the collective. Through the example of the study of Jewish origins, she explores novel cultural and political practices that are emerging as genetic history's claims and "facts" circulate in the public domain and illustrates how this historical science is intrinsically entangled with cultural imaginations and political commitments. Chronicling late nineteenth- to mid-twentieth-century understandings of race, nature, and culture, she identifies continuities and shifts in scientific claims, institutional contexts, and political worlds in order to show how the meanings of biological difference have changed over time. Through her focus on Jewish origins, she also analyzes genetic history as the latest iteration of a cultural and political practice now over a century old.

"The Genealogical Science" analyzes the scientific work and social implications of the flourishing field of genetic history. A biological discipline that relies on genetic data in order to reconstruct the geographic origins of contemporary populations - their histories of migration and genealogical connections to other present-day groups - this historical science is garnering ever more credibility and social reach, in large part due to a growing industry in ancestry testing. In this book, Nadia Abu El-Haj examines genetic history's working assumptions about culture and nature, identity and biology, and the individual and the collective. Through the example of the study of Jewish origins, she explores novel cultural and political practices that are emerging as genetic history's claims and "facts" circulate in the public domain, going on to illustrate how this historical science is intrinsically entangled with cultural imaginations and political commitments. Chronicling late nineteenth- to mid-twentieth-century understandings of race, nature, and culture, she identifies continuities and shifts in scientific claims, institutional contexts, and political worlds in order to show how the meanings of biological difference have changed over time. In doing so, she gives an account of how and why it is that genetic history is so socially felicitous today and elucidates the range of understandings of the self-individual and collective - that this scientific field is making possible. More specifically, through her focus on the history of projects of Jewish self-fashioning that have taken place on the terrain of the biological sciences, "The Genealogical Science" analyzes genetic history as the latest iteration of a cultural and political practice now over a century old.

Americans have long been asked to support the troops and care for veterans' psychological wounds. Who, though, does this injunction serve?As acclaimed scholar Nadia Abu El-Haj argues here, in the American public's imagination, the traumatized soldier stands in for destructive wars abroad, with decisive ramifications in the post-9/11 era. Across the political spectrum the language of soldier trauma is used to discuss American warfare, producing a narrative in which traumatized soldiers are the only acknowledged casualties of war, while those killed by American firepower are largely sidelined and forgotten.In this wide-ranging and fascinating study of the meshing of medicine, science, and politics, Abu El-Haj explores the concept of post-traumatic stress disorder and the history of its medical diagnosis. While antiwar Vietnam War veterans sought to address their psychological pain even as they maintained full awareness of their guilt and responsibility for perpetrating atrocities on the killing fields of Vietnam, by the 1980s, a peculiar convergence of feminist activism against sexual violence and Reagan's right-wing "war on crime" transformed the idea of PTSD into a condition of victimhood. In so doing, the meaning of Vietnam veterans' trauma would also shift, moving away from a political space of reckoning with guilt and complicity to one that cast them as blameless victims of a hostile public upon their return home. This is how, in the post-9/11 era of the Wars on Terror, the injunction to "support our troops," came to both sustain US militarism and also shields American civilians from the reality of wars fought ostensibly in their name.In this compelling and crucial account, Nadia Abu El-Haj challenges us to think anew about the devastations of the post-9/11 era.

Israeli universities have long enjoyed a reputation as liberal bastions of freedom and democracy. Drawing on extensive research and making Hebrew sources accessible to the international community, Maya Wind shatters this myth and documents how Israeli universities are directly complicit in the violation of Palestinian rights.As this book shows, Israeli universities serve as pillars of Israel's system of oppression against Palestinians. Academic disciplines, degree programs, campus infrastructure, and research laboratories all service Israeli occupation and apartheid, while universities violate the rights of Palestinians to education, stifle critical scholarship, and violently repress student dissent. Towers of Ivory and Steel is a powerful expose of Israeli academia's ongoing and active complicity in Israel's settler-colonial project.

This book reveals the role played by identity documents in Israel’s apartheid policies towards the Palestinians, from the red passes of the 1950s to the orange, green and blue passes of today. The authors chronicle how millions of Palestinians have been denationalised through the bureaucratic tools of census, population registration, blacklisting and a discriminatory legal framework. They show how identity documents are used by Israel as a means of coercion, extortion, humiliation and informant recruitment. Movement restrictions tied to IDs and population registers threaten Palestinian livelihoods, freedom of movement and access to basic services such as health and education. Unfree in Palestine is a masterful expose of the web of bureaucracy used by Israel to deprive the Palestinians of basic rights and freedoms, and calls for international justice and inclusive security in place of discrimination and division.

This book deals with The developed protocol for the assay of AFP for the assessment of AFP in the tissue of ovarian tumor homogenates (benign germ cell, malignant germ cell and malignant serous ).Furthermore it showsIsolation of AFP from malignant germ cell of ovarian tumor tissue homogenates by gel filtration technique, then it reveals the presence of three immunoreactive forms of AFP peak I (PI) with 592 KDa molecular weight, peak II (PII) with 190 KDa molecular weight and peak III (Pill) with 77 KDa molecular weight. kinetic studies on the binding of 1251- anti AFP antibody with AFP in tissue's homogenate of benign germ cell (01), malignant germ cell (011), malignant serous (0111) and with isolated AFP of malignant germ cell ovarian tumor (Pill) revealed that the binding reactions are time and temperature dependent. The binding data fits the second order reaction kinetics for AFP of benign germ cell group, malignant germ cell group and malignant serous group, while the binding data fits the pseudo first order reaction kinetics for isolatedAFP of malignant germ cell group. Thennodynamic studies lor the binding reaction of 1251-anti AFP antibody \vith AFP in tissue's homogenate of benign germ cell group (01}, malignant germ cell group (011), malignant serous group (0111) and with isolated AFP of malignant genn cell group (Pill), revealed that the binding reactions were exothermic and spontaneously ( and the binding reactions were entropically and enthalipically driven .Spectroscopic studies revealed that each of AFP, and the complex of isolated AFP fonn with 1251- anti AFP antibody have characteristic spectrum and give an idea of the location of particular amino acid in the AFP and ( 1251-anti AFP antibody I AFP) complex molecules

Nadia moves between the competing perspectives of two survivors of the 1990s Balkan Wars who have escaped to London, only to discover that the war has followed them there. Nadia is a young refugee who just wants to forget the past—until Iggy starts temping at her London office. Afraid he may be a sniper from the war she fled, Nadia starts seeing threats everywhere, alongside unsettling visions of her lost girlfriend, Sanja. As her volatile connection with Iggy unravels, Nadia is forced to face the shaky, ethical choices she made to escape the war, her survivor guilt, and her disavowed queer sexuality. Nadia takes us to the recent past of a war that broke apart a European country and that presciently foreshadowed the rise of ethno-nationalism in the West. Tense, suspenseful, and mordantly funny, Nadia tracks the complex ways in which a past marked by political violence can shadow and disrupt the present.

Tänk dig att bli dömd till livstids fängelse mot ditt nekande. För att överleva måste du börja tro på det de säger. Att du mördade din man. Linda Andersson hade allt. Som barn uppträdde hon ofta med sin mamma, den folkkära sångerskan Kathy, och blev Solskensflickan med hela svenska folket. Senare gifte hon sig med Simon, också han en känd artist. Men när Kathy drabbades av en dödlig sjukdom som krävde all Lindas uppmärksamhet avslöjades även Simons otrohet. Nu avtjänar hon ett livstidsstraff på Sveriges farligaste kvinnofängelse för mordet på sin man. Ingen tror att hon är oskyldig, inte ens hennes egen syster. För att stå ut tvingas Linda glömma sitt tidigare liv. Hon måste sluta älta vad som egentligen hände. Men så inträffar något som får henne att ifrågasätta allt om natten då hennes liv slogs i spillror. Då hon vaknade upp, omgiven av blod. Då polisen skrek åt henne att komma ut med händerna över huvudet. Hon var Solskensflickan. Nu är hon Monstret. En psykologisk thriller om besatthet, dubbla lojaliteter och om att gå över den sista gränsen. Elisabeth Norebäck (f 1979) är uppväxt i Borlänge men bor nu i Stockholm med man och tre barn. Hon har en examen som civilingenjör från Kungliga Tekniska Högskolan i Stockholm, och bokdebuterade 2017 med Säg att du är min, en psykologisk thriller som snabbt såldes till över 30 länder. Den nominerades också till Årets Deckardebut i Crimetime Specsavers Award.
