Academia in the Midst of Genocide: A Dialogue with Professor Norman Finkelstein

 


In our discussion with Professor Finkelstein, we delved into the intricate geopolitical dynamics of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. We also examined Germany's support for Israel, its historical connections, highlighted by Germany's opposition to South Africa's position at the International Court of Justice.

The conversation brought to light the complexities of the situation, the different perceptions and narratives about Hamas, and the prevailing perspectives within Western academic circles regarding the genocidal violence in Gaza.

Norman Gary Finkelstein is an American political scientist and activist. His primary fields of research are the politics of the Holocaust and the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. He is the author of many books, including The Holocaust Industry, Gaza: An inquest into its martyrdom, and I Accuse! In the year 2020, Norman Finkelstein was named the fifth most influential political scientist in the world.
