Jewish studies has been a vibrant academic discipline for many
decades, and since the establishment of the Association for Israel
Studies in 1985 to engage in research on the history, politics,
society, and culture of the modern state of Israel, the two
disciplines have worked along parallel tracks in universities. This
book focuses on the vibrant academic field of Israel studies and
its complex and dynamic relations and intersections with its
“older sibling” Jewish studies. Scholarly contributions from
around the globe illustrate that the ongoing and growing interest
in Israel studies, in particular since the early 2000s, must be
analyzed and understood in its relationship to Jewish studies. Only
this will allow scholarship to reflect on not only the
intersections between the two fields but also on the prospects of
cross-pollination between the disciplines for research and
teaching. This will become ever more vital in an increasingly
globalized world with shifting concepts, borders, and identity
concepts.
