Inevitably this has had a profound impact on the mindset of many Arab scholars. In Israelism: Arab Scholarship on Israel, a Critical Assessment, Hassan A. Barari critically assesses the status of Israeli Studies in the Arab World.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eScholars' incompetence and their lack of significant area studies skills have contributed to the underdevelopment of Israeli Studies in most Arab counties. However, the persistence of the Arab-Israel conflict, the injustice that has befallen the Palestinians and the hegemonic ideological discourses have also greatly informed the epistemology and ontology of Arab scholarship on Israel.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe author argues that with a few rare exceptions, and despite the existence of a multitude of books, articles and studies that have tacked Israel, Israeli Studies in Arab World remains, by and large, weighted down by one-sided projections, ideological spin, prejudice and a necessity to expose rather than to understand the other.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Garnet Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47008764297456,"sku":"9780863724169","price":18.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780863724169_p0.jpg?v=1763831625","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780863724169","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
