Israel’s Securitization Dilemma

Traces a contemporary issue in international politics (Antisemitism) that preoccupies policymakers across western nations.

Breaks new scholarly ground by capturing three branches of scholarship in the securitization dilemma concept – ontological security, securitization of identity, and legitimacy – all together in one book.

Provides a comprehensive analysis of Israel’s response to delegitimization efforts against it, using both a historical and contemporary analysis of Israeli/Zionist policy making.
