EP 54: 75 years of Israel: A critical reassessment

75 years after its establishment in May of 1948, Israel faces one
of its most challenging moments – a moment that asks for a critical
reassessment. In a special panel discussion, four Israeli scholars
will offer their own reassessment from different perspectives. They
will explore the problems and possibilities of describing Israeli
history, the ties between Israeli culture and current politics, the
past and future relations between Israel and the European Union,
and the ethnic tensions between Ashkenazim and Mizrachim. Panel
discussion with: Prof. Arie M. Dubnov (George Washington
University) Prof. Anat Feinberg (University of Jewish Studies,
Heidelberg) Prof. Alfred Tovias (Hebrew University Jerusalem)
Allianz Visiting Prof. Lior B. Sternfeld (Penn State University)
Moderation: Dr. Ghilad Shenhav (LMU) Introduction: Prof. Michael
