Description
Description
The terror unfolding in Gaza looms over us all. We find ourselves unable to think, content with reciting decades-old truisms. Teacher and philosopher Soumyabrata Choudhury intensifies this disquiet. He enquires into the fantasies of nationhood that plague both Israel and Palestine. Does the figure of the Hamas terrorist occlude the existence of a Palestinian ‘world’? What do the harrowing images of suffering children in Gaza force us to think? How does the flat world of capitalism square itself with the absolute otherness to which Gaza is consigned? What is the meaning of the Zionist claim, ‘Palestine is a land without a people’? How does the media force us to consume the catastrophe? All the emergent paranoias and fantasies are analysed. Thoughts of Gaza Far from Gaza is a clear-eyed reckoning with how dehumanisation and slaughter become normalised and institutionalised.
