In 'Against Fanaticism', Amos Oz, one of the most prominent intellectuals of the last century, offers a unique vision on the nature of extremism. Through three concise and powerful essays, Oz, who grew up in a war-torn Jerusalem, proposes a respectful and reasoned approach to resolving the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. This volume includes a reflection on the Geneva Accords, an interview on topics such as the withdrawal from Gaza and the Iraq War, and a conference in the Netherlands. With brilliance and irony, Oz argues that the confrontation is not a war of religions, but a financial dispute that requires commitment from both sides. This revised and expanded edition is a lucid, rational and constructive work, embodying realism and optimism.
Amos Oz was an Israeli writer, novelist, journalist, and intellectual. He was also a professor of Hebrew literature at Ben-Gurion University of the Negev. From 1967 onwards, Oz was a prominent advocate of a two-state solution to the Israeli–Palestinian conflict.
