Zionism from the Standpoint of Its Victims information


"Zionism from the Standpoint of Its Victims" is an essay by Palestinian-American academic Edward Said, published in 1979 as part of a broader set of writings that Said had titled The Question of Palestine.[1] It joins a broad field of scholarship that engages in investigations of the role of nationalism and imperialism across the globe.[2] In this essay, Said aims to address a distinct lack of discussion on Zionism (i.e., Jewish nationalism, the official ideology of Israel) from the perspective of the Palestinian Arabs.[1] Though it was compiled decades ago, it has remained relevant in academic discourse due to the ongoing failure of the Israeli–Palestinian peace process.[3] Ultimately, Said argues that the Zionist ideology is a continuation of Western imperialism, which has erased the voice and history of the Palestinian Arabs, framing Palestine as empty and ancestrally belonging to the Jewish people.[1]
