Nambiar a brief biographical sketch. This study represents an attempt to investigate the cultural component of India West Asia relations from various angles. It is an attempt to fill the vacuum in existing literature on cultural aspects of India West Asia relations. It not only contributes to the cultural aspects of India West Asia relations but also reflects the concern over some of the deep rooted and widely held myths regarding clash of civilization thesis and globalisation. Cultural relations between India and West Asia must be placed in a broad context which encompasses the disciplines like history sociology anthropology cultural studies and international relations. In the age of re mapping territories collapsing cultural frontiers and expanding hybridization of cultural identities a remarkable interest in this mix has sprung up. This volume brings together scholars from different disciplines. The result is the discussion of a broader range of issues related to the cultural content of India West Asia relations. 218 pp.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Contents Foreword. About the book. Author's profile. Preface. 1. Introduction. 2. Jewish Diaspora and place as an element of emancipation. 3. Immigration and territorialisation of memory in Palestine. 4. Geographies(s) of nation building. 5. Hebraicization of map and revival of Hebrew language. 6. Spatial orbit to Jewish national identity. Appendix. Glossary. Bibliography. Index. This book is an attempt to analyse the evolution of territorial orbit of the Jewish national identity through three seminal events in the Jewish history namely diaspora emigration to Palestine and the creation of the state of Israel. Parallel to it this work seeks to analyse how space and memory as constituents of Jewish identity are refashioned in each stage in nationalist history mustering up three overlapping areas of humanities and social science viz. geography memory and identity. It also examines community's relations with geography and memory and their bid to create space and narratives to serve the purpose of the present. Thanks to the collage like appearance of many political as well as sociological themes the nationalist history of Jewish people has been a brilliant theme for vigorous academic study. It is of course a rallying point for three or more disciplines primarily of politics then of course of sociology history and anthropology. Academic works on Jewish nationalism in general and Zionism in particular are seen in abundance. The multitude of political as well as social features of this nationalism has attracted many scholars. However the conventional characterisation in terms of basic choices between modern and traditional secular and religious universal and particular fail to measure the extent of dynamism and creative interplay of various interesting processes involved in it. Moreover there are not many studies adequately dealing with evolution of these nationalism from the angle of space and memory that are inseparably bound up with it. 188 pp.…
