The Role of Knowledge in Israeli Studies
The article discusses the danger of psychological and cognitive dominance imposed by colonialism on the Islamic world, especially through studies about Israel and occupation. It highlights how understanding the Other can become a tool to reinforce the image of the enemy rather than deconstructing it. The article emphasizes the need to reassess the "position of knowledge" and its tools, presenting them in a way that refutes colonial narratives, rather than relying on imported, uncritical approaches. This is essential to avoid reproducing the other's narrative and its impact on nationalist and patriotic consciousness. It underscores the importance of understanding and guiding the methodology used to study Israel from a resistant, not submissive, perspective. Furthermore, it stresses that knowledge must be subjected to scrutiny and rooted in its cultural and historical context to prevent its exploitation in shaping awareness that serves occupation strategies and threatens national identity.
