Описание: What does Israel's definition as a 'Jewish and democratic' state mean? How does it affect constitutional law? How does it play out in the daily life of the people living in Israel? This book provides a unique and detailed examination of the consequences of the 'Jewish and democratic' definition. It explores how the definition affects the internal ordering of the state, the operation of the law, and the ways it is used to justify, protect and regenerate certain features of Israeli constitutional law. It also considers the relationship between law and settler-colonialism, and how this relationship manifests itself in the constitutional order. The Dynamics of Exclusionary Constitutionalism offers a novel perspective on the Jewish and democratic definition rooted in constitutional theory and informed by a socio-legal approach. Relying on a wide range of court cases and statutes as well as secondary sources, the book shows how the definition is deeply embedded in the constitutional structure, and operates, as a matter of law, in a manner that concentrates political power in the hands of the Jewish citizens and excludes the Palestinian Arab citizens in Israel from the political process.
Mazen Masri's study is a timely intervention in an increasingly important question, and is essential reading for those who want to understand Israel's character, its relationship with the constitutional order, and its impact on society.

Описание:
"Maram al-Massri comes as a shock. She writes about all the taboo subjects--physical passion, faithlessness, adultery, loneliness, despair--with candor and intensity that would mark her out even to Westerners."--The Times (London)
"Her direct, unadorned writing, with its emphasis on the quotidian, and utilization of simple, almost child-like metaphors, contrast sharply with the conventions of traditional Arabic love poetry."--Banipal: Magazine of Modern Arab Literature
"The spare emotive verse of A Red Cherry on a White-tiled Floor reflects definite bravery on the part of Syrian poet Maram Al-Massri." --ForeWord
"Sexy, mischievous and utterly delightful, (al-Massri's) poems are epigrammatic, seductively clever and at their best, unforgettable."--San Diego Union-Tribune
"Short, vivid, frankly erotic and remarkable for their emotional intelligence, Syrian poet Al-Massri's poems are as startling in English as they must have been to their first Arabic readers." --Publishers Weekly
Syrian poet Maram al-Massri writes of love and the place of women in the modern age with striking candor and intensity. "I am this mix between the submissive and rebellious woman," she writes, "my freedom is so difficult and so desired." Her poems invoke a world where women are trapped and men flow freely, of the intoxicating power of seduction and the intensity of lust, of the security of relationships and muffled explosions of emotion.
Like grains of salt they shone then melted. This is how they disappeared, those men who did not love me.
Al-Massri herself straddles racial, religious, and cultural worlds. Born in Latakia, Syria, she moved to Paris in 1984 and has since refused to return: "I divorced from my past, my religion, my land, and even from my language." Despite being fluent in French and English, she writes in Arabic, following traditional forms.
A Red Cherry on a White-tiled Floor is al-Massri's first book published in the United States, and appears in a bilingual Arabic-English edition.

Описание: Revelatory insider stories about the Palestinian struggle by a man whose life has traced the arc of modern Palestinian history, from the time of the British Mandate through today. At once an homage to the dead, enlightenment for the living, and wisdom for the future. An engrossing memoir that offers a perspective rarely glimpsed by Western readers. The author is an 84-year-old entrepeneur and politician who has been at the heart of the Palestinian nationalist cause since the 1950s. His story is addressed to his college-aged grandson who was shot in the back while running away from Israeli troops at a peaceful border demonstration. While empathizing with the anger his now wheelchair-bound grandson burnishes -- many of the author's contemporaries were killed, maimed or exiled in pursuit of human rights -- Masri cites examples from personal experience that good people can always be found on both sides of the Israeli-Palestinian stand-off, and that if you are willing to seek them out, there is hope. In fact, reconciliation is the only tenable option. Understanding and peace, a future that offers normalcy and prosperity, are possible. Many stories told here, about private moments with Yasser Arafat, and with Israeli, Jordanian and US leaders, have never before been told. The author was educated in the US and his wife is a Texan. He has lived and worked in many countries throughout North Africa and the Middle East, and he maintains a second home in London. His story will connect and resonate with, and also enlighten, readers from a variety of backgrounds.
