Dangerous Liaisons: Israel and the U.S.

Jacqueline Rose

Monday, May 8
2:30 PM
McCune Conference Room, 6020 HSSB

Dangerous Liaisons is a personal journey by Professor Jacqueline Rose investigating the relationship between the conflict in Israel and one of the main countries she believes holds the key to the crisis – America. The film features the Israeli crisis' leading figures, including former Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu; outspoken US foreign policy critic Noam Chomsky; and architect of the Oslo peace accords, Yossi Beilin.

Jacqueline Rose, Professor of English at Queen Mary University, London, will talk about the making of the Channel 4 film Dangerous Liaisons: Israel and the U.S. and her recent book The Question of Zion. Rose's research focuses on modern subjectivity at the interface of literature, psychoanalysis and politics, as well as on the history and culture of South Africa and of Israel-Palestine.
