Reviews
"Israel's Dead Soul is a densely-packed, sometimes knotty little book, that well repays reading and rereading. Salaita provides us with well-honed tools for diagnosing the errors of organizations and embedded pundits alike, as well as the weapons for combating them." -Electronic Intifada "As unsparing of the liberal multiculturalist embrace of Zionism as it is of the right-wing defense of Israeli violence, Salaita's stinging critique demonstrates how both deploy a demonization of Palestinians that normatizes Zionism and absolves it of its colonial violence. Israel's Dead Soul is a must read for scholars of the Middle East, anti-racist activists and all those who care about social justice." -Sunera Thobani, Associate Professor, Centre for Women's and Gender Studies, University of British Columbia
