anti-Zionism

== English == === Alternative forms === antizionism === Etymology === From anti- +‎ Zionism. === Noun === anti-Zionism (uncountable) Opposition to Zionism; activism against Zionism. Antonym: pro-Zionism ==== Usage notes ==== A conceptual distinction may be made between anti-Zionism and antizionism, as described by Adam Louis-Klein: “(…) Jewish anti-Zionists today engage in a consequential conflation that demands conceptual precision to disentangle. Anti-Zionism (with the hyphen) refers to historical Jewish debates about Zionism; antizionism (without the hyphen) names a modern ideology built on libels about Israel. This distinction, standard in contemporary antisemitism studies led by scholars such as David Hirsh and David Seymour, is ignored by some Jewish studies professors — Shaul Magid, Daniel Boyarin, David Biale, and others — whose elision gives ideological cover to antizionism. Their intellectual projects to produce accounts of diasporist Judaism are legitimate, even worthy. But their failure to recognize and acknowledge the difference between their projects and that of antizionism is what grants antizionism its alibi.
