Seth Anziska: Israel and the Palestinian Question in the 21st Century
What is the impact of Palestinian statelessness on Israeli society, and to what extent is this transforming Jewish politics on a global scale? Seth will trace the roots of the Palestinian story and look at the future implications.

His research and teaching focuses on Israeli and Palestinian society and culture, modern Middle Eastern history, and contemporary Arab and Jewish politics. He is the author of Preventing Palestine: A Political History from Camp David to Oslo (Princeton University Press, 2018), which was awarded the British Association for Jewish Studies Book Prize in 2019. His writing has appeared in The New York Times and The New York Review of Books, and he is currently working on an international history of the 1982 Lebanon War, supported by the British Academy and Leverhulme Trust.
