DISPONIBILITÀ GARANTITA AL 99%; SPEDIZIONE ENTRO 12 ORE DALL'ORDINE. RIMANENZA DI MAGAZZINO PARI AL NUOVO. Questo saggio di Shmuel Trigano è un viaggio nella storia del destino di una terra e del conflitto arabo-israeliano, in particolare a partire dagli eventi che si sono susseguiti dopo la seconda intifada.. Il testo, oltre ad accompagnare il lettore dentro gli eventi, tratteggia anche le caratteristiche della manipolazione della realtà dei fatti. L'effetto di questo terremoto, orchestrato mediaticamente dalla propaganda occidentale, ha gettato le basi per la delegittimazione di Israele. L'autore dimostra che è ancora possibile riuscire a giungere ad un punto di vista obiettivo sui fatti. Il testo di Shmuel Trigano, che fornisce un metodo di lettura della realtà applicabile anche ad altri contesti sociali, fornisce spunti di riflessione del potere dei riflettori mediatici.

br. Quando Raja Shehadeh, avvocato discendente da un'antica famiglia palestinese, ha iniziato le camminate sui sentieri della sua terra, negli anni '70, non sapeva ancora di trovarsi di fronte a un paesaggio che stava per scomparire. Quelle stesse colline che per tutta l'infanzia aveva considerato il suo giardino personale - il luogo dove andare a giocare, a riposare o in cui abbandonarsi a un vagabondaggio ristoratore, seguendo un'antica tradizione locale - quelle stesse colline che per il loro carattere arcaico e apparentemente immobile avrebbero potuto apparire familiari a un contemporaneo di Cristo, stavano infatti per essere invase da una colata di cemento che ne avrebbe alterato per sempre l'aspetto e il significato, devastando un'incomparabile ricchezza naturale e paesaggistica. Le sette camminate nel paesaggio della Palestina che Shehadeh racconta in questo libro si svolgono attraverso gli ultimi trent'anni di storia della regione; ognuna di esse racconta un diverso aspetto del paesaggio della cosiddetta Cisgiordania, e si svolge in un diverso momento della sua drammatica vicenda storica. Passo dopo passo, pagina dopo pagina, il racconto si colora di tinte drammatiche e si popola dei fantasmi sempre più reali dell'emigrazione, della guerra e della colonizzazione selvaggia; il terreno delle lunghe camminate si fa sempre più frammentato da fili spinati, posti di blocco e muri invalicabili, fino all'irrompere sulla scena dell'ombra minacciosa del fondamentalismo.
