Israel and the Rise of the Global Domain: Interpreting Jewish Existence offers the first comprehensive theoretical framework for understanding Jewish existence through the lens of spatial paradigms within the global epoch, drawing upon innovative interpretive methods across political science, philosophy, and mysticism.
Examining the complex interplay between multiple Jewish domains - national, religious, and global - this groundbreaking study traces how the dominant national domain has been progressively challenged by emerging forms of global domain in an era marked by religious resurgence. Through nuanced analysis, the book illuminates the spatial and temporal dimensions of these domains, exploring their distinctive ethos, sovereignty claims, and relationship to the Land of Israel. The work meticulously documents how Jewish identity navigates between competing spatial paradigms, revealing the profound implications for Zionism and the future of the Jewish state. The book culminates in a radical proposition regarding the potential exodus from the ethical-spatial boundaries of the national domain should it fail, suggesting possible transitions to alternative domains of existence.
A vital contribution to Jewish studies, political theory, and globalization discourse, this volume provides essential insights for scholars examining religious identity, nationalism, and spatial politics in the contemporary world.
