Description
When the Second World War came to an end, Berlin, the capital of the Third Reich, lay in ruins. Few if any contemporaries could have anticipated that seventy years later, Berlin would boast large diaspora communities of Palestinians and Israelis who have made a home among Germans. In The Moral Triangle Sa’ed Atshan and Katharina Galor draw on ethnographic fieldwork and interviews with Israelis, Palestinians, and Germans in Berlin to explore the fraught relationship between the three groups in the context of official German policies, public discourse, and the private sphere. Dr. Atshan is Associate Professor of Peace and Conflict Studies at Swarthmore College and the author of Queer Palestine: Empire of Critique. Katharina Galor, an art historian and archaeologist specializing in the visual and material culture of Israel-Palestine, is currently the Hirschfeld Visiting Assistant Professor at the Program in Judaic Studies at Brown University. Her publications include The Archaeology of Jerusalem: From the Origins to the Ottomans (co-authored with Hanswulf Bloedhorn), Finding Jerusalem: Archaeology Between Science and Ideology. The event will be introduced by DAAD visiting professor Jörg Neuheiser. UC San Diego professor of history Frank Biess provides comments.
