2024-2025 My research traces how and which Jewish traditions and alternative Jewish histories in the MENA region are mobilized in Jewish Israeli activists’ efforts to rearticulate Jewish democratic political ethics in Palestine/Israel. This research will contribute to scholarship on the role of religion in conflict and peacebuilding, social movement mobilization, religion and learning/unlearning political identities, and the study of counter-archiving unlearning efforts in political mobilization in repressive knowledge regimes that carefully curate historical national narratives. This research will significantly enrich Kellogg’s thematic focus on religion and politics with a particular focus on nationalism, conflict, and peacebuilding.
