Abstract

This article deals with the intellectual production of post-Zionism made by Israeli and other academics and intellectuals. The analysis of modern Israel's origins, the 1948 war and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict constitute the thematic axis of these intellectual debates. In spite of the controversies and rejections have followed their publications, the article demonstrates that they do not strive to delegitimize the existence of Israel but that they present in a revisionist way the origins and conflict, in disciplines as different as history, political science, sociology, philosophy and urban studies. There is a stressing of critical discourses that attack the conventional, institutionalized and official versions of Zionism, presenting significant alternatives that may help to lay bases for the resolution of the conflicts that Israel lives through since its establishment as an independent modern state.
