Leora Bilsky is Professor of Law, Tel Aviv University.
"A remarkable book that can be read on a number of levels and from
a variety of perspectives, . . . A compelling narrative that is at
once gripping and thought-provoking, raising profound questions
about the relationship of politics, history, social identity, and
the law."
--Richard Bernstein, from the Foreword
"Bilsky's book is a breakthrough essay on the theory and practice
of political trials. Moving far beyond the conventional theories,
it also brilliantly illuminates the role that political trials have
played in defining the status of Jews and Arabs in Israeli public
life."
--Bruce Ackerman, Yale University
"What is distinctive in Bilsky's work is the breadth of her
interdisciplinarity, a breadth that is achieved without any
sacrifice of substance. Her book makes an important and substantial
contribution to our understanding of trials as tools of democratic
renewal."
--Lawrence Douglas, Amherst University
