Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Was the Red Flag Flying There? examines the Palestinian/ArabIsraeli conflict through the lens of Marxist politics. Joel Beinin asks how the proposal to partition Palestine into an Arab and a Jewish statea solution endorsed by international consensus in 194749became an obscure and even unthinkable option by the mid1960s. As the most consistent adherents of the twostate solution both before and after the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, the Marxists serve as the focal point of his analysis.Beinin discusses three Marxist political formations in Egypt and Israel: the communist movement in Egypt; the Communist Party of Israel (MAKI); and the United Workers' Party of Israel (MAPAM), which attempted, but ultimately failed, to sustain a dual commitment to Marxism and Zionism. The failure of these movements and their progressive abandonment of an internationalist orientation toward resolving the ArabIsraeli conflict is explained as a consequence of the ultimate hegemony of nationalist politics in both Egypt and Israel.Employing both the analytical methods of political economy and a discourse analysis informed by insights drawn from Antonio Gramsci's conception of hegemony, Beinin offers a new interpretation of the significance of Marxist politics in Egypt and Israel. This work builds on and extends the scope of the revisionist history of the ArabIsraeli conflict developed by Israeli scholars during the 1980s, challenging traditional Marxist conceptions of the relationship between antiimperialist nationalism and the struggle for socialism.
