This book revisits contemporary Arab engagements with the question of Jewish political
rights (as individuals, religious communities and/or a national collective) under the light
of European anti-Semitism and Zionism. It also explores Jewish engagements with the
Arab Question, namely how Zionism and non-Zionist Jewish voices dealt with
Palestinian presence and political rights in historic Palestine. These two key political
questions have been historically debated, but not juxtaposed, despite the fact that they
have become inextricably intertwined. They continue to inform, feed and kindle conflicts
in Europe, Middle East, and US. Revisiting the Jewish and Arab questions today is all the
more urgent in view of the crisis that Palestinian, Jewish, Arab, and European
nationalisms are facing.
