Review of two books about pro-Palestinian political activism known as BDS (Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions.) Contains detailed discussion of history and current events covered in the books.
Abstract: --
Excerpt:
Against Apartheid: The Case for Boycotting Israeli Universities Edited by Ashley Dawson and Bill V. Mullen Chicago: Haymarket, 2015, 258 pages, $19.95 paperback.
Boycott! The Academy and Justice for Palestine By Sunaina Maira Berkeley: UC Berkeley Press, 2018, 172 pages, $18.95 paperback.
REPORTS OF THE death of internationalist idealism among millennials have been greatly exaggerated. These two recent books, the feisty anthology Against Apartheid, from a leading radical publishing house, and the concise primer Boycott!, from a major university press, are rollouts for the ascending embargo of academic and cultural collaboration with the Israeli state.
