LSE IDEAS public lecture
This talk is about debate generated about Israel's past by the "new" or revisionist Israeli historiography that emerged in the late 1980s. It will review the main bones of contention in the debate between the pro-Zionist version of the Arab-Israeli conflict and that put forward by the "new historians". The talk will also explore the relationship between Israeli politics and the historiography of the Arab-Israeli conflict.
