Descripción general del libro

This book deals with a wide range of moral, social, and political issues, centered on questions of identity, Jewish or otherwise. The books scope extends from anti-Semitism, Zionism, and Palestinian terrorism to the language of race, the status of animals, the rights of the child, and related topics. While the chapters interact and overlap, each is self-contained. Taken together, they develop the title theme: the inner connection between being Jewish and doing justice. The prologue offers a bold, new interpretation of the idea of 'the people of God.' From this point on, bringing argument to life is the author's watchword. Drawing on his training as an academic philosopher, his Jewish education, and personal experience, author Brian Klug tackles thorny problems, combining rigorous analysis with outspokenness. He assists readers to think for themselves about difficult questions and provokes them to do so. The questions and issues discussed include: Is anti-Zionism a form of anti-Semitism? * Who were Herzl's Jewish opponents in the East End? * Are anti-Semitism and anti-Americanism inextricably entangled? * What draws America to Israel and what ties Israel to Auschwitz? * How can the climate of debate about Israel among Jews be improved? * What does it mean to say that Israel has a 'right to exist?' * Whither the Jewish future? * The 'race question' on the UK census form * Arthur Balfour's take on 'the Jewish race' * Ethnicity in America * Black-Jewish relations in Chicago * Popular attitudes in Britain towards the 'ritual' slaughter of animals * The treatment of animals in the abattoir and laboratory.

Brian Klug: Bio

Dr Brian Klug is Senior Research Fellow in Philosophy at St Benet’s Hall, Oxford, member of the philosophy faculty of the University of Oxford, Fellow of the College of Arts & Sciences at St Xavier University, Chicago, and Honorary Fellow of the Parkes Institute for the Study of Jewish/non-Jewish Relations, University of Southampton. In August-Septemebr 2012 he was Visiting Scholar at the International Centre for Muslim & non-Muslim Understanding, University of South Australia, Adelaide. He has published extensively on ‘race’ and ethnicity, antisemitism, Jewish identity and other subjects. His articles have appeared in numerous periodicals, including Foreign Policy, Political Quarterly, Peace and Change, Journal of Jewish Studies, Journal of Palestine Studies and The Nation. His most recent books are Being Jewish and Doing Justice: Bringing Argument to Life (2011) and Offence: The Jewish Case (2009).

Dr Klug has degrees in philosophy from the University of London and a doctorate in Social Thought from the University of Chicago. In his public writing on contemporary cultural, social and political issues, he seeks to use tools from philosophy to clarify issues and analyse concepts, arguments and texts. He has a special interest in the uses and abuses of language and often draws on the work of the later Wittgenstein. Two of his forthcoming articles are ‘Interrogating “new antisemitism”’ (in 'Ethnic and Racial Studies') and ‘Islamophobia: a concept comes of age’ (in 'Ethnicities').

Dr Klug has lectured widely and taken part in several BBC (Religion and Ethics) programmes as well as other public broadcasts. He is Associate Editor of the journal Patterns of Prejudice and co-founder of the UK group Independent Jewish Voices.
