This book weaves together philosophical, theological, psychoanalytical, and political paradigms, providing both a historicization and a theorization of the Israeli experience and encompassing social-political events in recent history and life in Israel.

Born out of Itzhak Benyamini’s subjective experience as an “Israeli,” a “Mizrahi” (a Hebrew term referring to a Jewish person whose origin derives from the Muslim world), and a “civilian,” this book provides an in-depth discussion of the psychical and philosophical ramifications of recent sociopolitical events in Israel. Throughout chapters discussing topics such as identity, the uncanny, and the political ontology of time, Benyamini sheds light on the uncanny feelings of Israelis following Benyamin Netanyahu’s long term in office. The book deciphers the multilayered Israeli anxiety and exposes the measure of complexity that such a psycho-political identity accumulates.

A multidisciplinary work combining sociological, psychoanalytical, and philosophical thought, this book will be of interest to scholars, students, and professionals in these fields and those who would like to learn more about Israeli culture.
