A groundbreaking, ambitious, and authoritative examination of Israel by one of the most influential columnists writing about the Middle East today
My Promised Land tells the story of Israel as it has never been told before. Facing unprecedented internal and external pressures, Israel today is at a moment of existential crisis. Through revealing stories of significant events and of ordinary individuals—pioneers, immigrants, entrepreneurs, scientists, army generals, peaceniks, settlers, and Palestinians—Israeli journalist Ari Shavit illuminates many of the pivotal moments of the Zionist century that led Israel to where it is today. We meet the youth group leader who recognized the potential of Masada as a powerful symbol for Zionism; the young farmer who bought an orange grove from his Arab neighbor in the 1920s, and with the Jaffa orange helped to create a booming economy in Palestine; the engineer who was instrumental in developing Israel’s nuclear program; the religious Zionists who started the settler movement. Over an illustrious career that has spanned almost thirty years, Shavit has had rare access to people from across the Israeli political, economic, and social spectrum, and in this ambitious work he tells a riveting story that is both deeply human and of profound historical dimension.
As it examines the complexities and contradictions of the Israeli condition, My Promised Land asks difficult but important questions: Why did Israel come to be? How did it come to be? And can Israel survive? Culminating with an analysis of the issues and threats that Israel is currently facing, both internal and external, My Promised Land uses the defining events of the past to shed new light on the present. The result is a landmark portrait of a small, vibrant country living on the edge, whose identity and presence play a crucial role in today’s global political landscape.

评分没有想到这本书还是挺有人气的,Ari Shavit显然是个有力的演说家,他很懂得拿捏西方读者的口味,并在恰当的范畴内灌输zionist ideas
评分自从公司开了以色列办公室之后对这神奇的国度充满着好奇。无解的地缘政治历史问题,造就了独特的人群和文化。极度的危机感激发了无限的生产创造力,福兮,祸兮。
评分第一次读以色列的近代史,这样的历史观感觉不多见了。期待明年Silk Road之旅
评分Very well-written and thorough, except that the book neglects the issues of not-so-well-off Mizrahi populations.
文/严杰夫 巴勒斯坦历史学家纳兹米•朱贝曾说道,“在耶路撒冷,不要问我真相的历史……若拿走虚构的故事,耶路撒冷就一无所有了。”这句话放在以色列这个国家身上,似乎也同样适用。 于是,今天的以色列似乎给人一种光怪陆离的印象:对于基督徒或“离散”犹太人来说,以色...
评分 评分用电子书看的,只能看到阅读进度,对于书的厚度没什么概念,但觉得应该很厚重吧。 关上网页,一个人静默许久,心情复杂,跌宕,起伏,纠结。不知道改写什么,也无法表达出心里的同情,纠葛,作者没有给出答案,无数的中东专家给不出完美的答案。 这几天连续在看耶路撒冷的书...
