Through eight lectures, this series explores the new forms of suspicion surrounding Israel and the Jewish world. From the accusation of genocide to the resurgence of antisemitism, from memory to the redefinition of Zionism, leading scholars and thinkers examine the intellectual and moral upheavals of our time. An invitation to think without prejudice, in a moment of crisis.
