A sweeping and revelatory history of the hidden tradition of Jewish thinkers who opposed Zionism from Pulitzer Prize winner Benjamin Moser. In Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History, Benjamin Moser uncovers a suppressed tradition that has shaped Jewish thought for generations. Through a cast of artists, rabbis, poets, lawyers, activists, journalists, and politicians--from Europe and Africa and Asia and Latin America--Moser traces a lineage of Jewish dissenters who confronted Zionism's moral and political stakes--often at devastating personal cost, including censorship, exile, and death. Their lives form a sweeping, global narrative that dismantles a powerful myth: that anti-Zionism is synonymous with antisemitism. Spanning continents and centuries, these voices--people from the right and the left, Reform and Orthodox, Ashkenazic and Sephardic, men and women, gay and straight--differ sharply in belief and background, yet converge on a shared warning about the consequences of a nationalist project built on exclusion. What emerges is not only a rediscovered tradition of Jewish moral thought, but a startling reappraisal of Zionism itself. Moser's work restores the full scale and depth of Jewish ethical imagination, affirming that Judaism is older and larger than any single political project. Lucid, unsparing, and deeply humane, Anti-Zionism cements Moser's place as one of our foremost Jewish writers and presents a framework through which this history--and its meanings--will be understood for years to come.
