/As the situation in Israel/Palestine seems to become ever more 
intractable and protracted, the need for new ways of looking at recent 
developments and their historical roots is more pressing than ever. 
Bearing this in mind, Yasmeen Abu-Laban and Abigail B. Bakan discuss the 
historic and contemporary dynamics in Israel/Palestine, and their 
international reverberations, from the unique vantage point of 'race', 
racialization, racism and anti-racism. They therefore offer close 
analysis of the 'idea' of Israel and the 'absence' of Palestine by 
examining the concepts of race and identity in the region, and how these 
ideas reverberate globally. Themes addressed include gender, 
Indigeneity, environment, surveillance, the BDS movement, apartheid and 
human rights./
*Join us to celebrate the publication of /Israel, Palestine and the 
Politics of Race./ Meet the authors and a panel of outstanding 
commentators, and share refreshments and good company.*
