As Israel turns 75 in spring 2023, it is in the throes of a dynamic controversy over governance. Where might this crisis or potential political earthquake fit into Zionism’s history and Israel’s tomorrows?
Dr. Kenneth Stein, Emory Emeritus Professor of Middle Eastern History, Political Science and Israel Studies and President of the Center for Israel Education (CIE)
For more than four decades, Ken Stein taught Middle Eastern history, political science and Israel studies at Emory University in Atlanta. Stein is the author of six books and dozens of scholarly articles. He was recognized for his intellectual integrity in speaking out against the falsehoods in former President Jimmy Carter’s 2006 book, Palestine Peace Not Apartheid. For decades, Stein’s undergraduate class “History, Politics, and Diplomacy of the Arab-Israeli Conflict” was one of the most popular classes at Emory. He has earned the highest recognition for excellence in teaching and lifelong mentoring of students. CIE has enriched Israel expertise with more than 8,000 Jewish teens, 3,500 Jewish teachers and some 400,000 students across the world. Each week more than 75,000 people use the CIE website.
