Taking up the case of malaria control in Jewish-held lands, Sandra Sufian illustrates how efforts to thwart the disease were intimately tied to the project of Zionist nation-building, especially the movement's efforts to repurpose and improve its lands. The project of eradicating malaria also took on a metaphorical dimension-erasing anti-Semitic stereotypes of the "parasitic" Diaspora Jew and creating strong, healthy Jews in Palestine. Sufian shows that, in reclaiming the land and the health of its people in Palestine, Zionists expressed key ideological and political elements of their nation-building project. Taking its title from a Jewish public health mantra, Healing the Land and the Nation situates antimalarial medicine and politics within larger colonial histories. By analyzing the science alongside the politics of Jewish settlement, Sufian addresses contested questions of social organization and the effects of land reclamation upon the indigenous Palestinian population in a decidedly innovative way. The book will be of great interest to scholars of the Middle East, Jewish studies, and environmental history, as well as to those studying colonialism, nationalism, and public health and medicine. 606 $aMalaria$zPalestine$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aMalaria$zIsrael$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aZionism$zPalestine$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aZionism$zIsrael$xHistory$y20th century 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aMalaria$xHistory 615 0$aMalaria$xHistory 615 0$aZionism$xHistory 615 0$aZionism$xHistory 676 $a614.5/32095694 700 $aSufian$b Sandra M$g(Sandra Marlene)$0896927 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910454760003321 996 $aHealing the land and the nation$92004147 997 $aUNINA LEADER 01849nam 2200541 450 001 9910815799703321 005 20240102235733.0 010 $a0199384509 : (ebk : EbookCentral) 010 $a0199384495 : (ebk : EbookCentral) 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3056395 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL3056395 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10962238 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL654312 035 $a(OCoLC)894509201 035 $a(CKB)3710000000267985 035 $a(EXLCZ)993710000000267985 100 $a20140801h20152015 uy| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurun#|||uuuuu 181 $2rdacontent 182 $2rdamedia 183 $2rdacarrier 200 10$aBodies of violence $etheorizing embodied subjects in international relations /$fLauren B.
