Palestine In Israeli School Books by Nurit Peled-Elhanan

Ideology and Propaganda in Education

This insightful analysis delves into the portrayal of Palestinians within Israeli educational materials, revealing a pervasive narrative that often dehumanizes and marginalizes them. Through a meticulous examination of textbooks, the work uncovers how language, imagery, and omissions contribute to shaping perceptions and attitudes towards Palestinians among Israeli students. The study highlights the broader implications of such educational practices on societal attitudes and the perpetuation of conflict, urging a reevaluation of how history and current events are taught to foster a more balanced and empathetic understanding.
