ZIONISM AND ITS DISCONTENTS

Dr. Joel Kovel, medical doctor, psychoanalyst, and social science professor, has written books on Zionism, ecology, nuclear terror, psychoanalysis, Nicaragua, white racism in the US, and McCarthyism. He ran for Senator in New York state for the Green Party.

Dr. Kovel speaks on "Zionism and its Discontents",

Thursday September 20,

Simon Fraser University downtown (515 W. Hastings),

7 pm. in Room 1700.

Sponsored by Canada Palestine Support Network (Canpalnet) and the Boycott Israeli Apartheid Campaign (BIAC)

Amidst all the reports that fill our media on the conflict involving Israel, the political philosophy of Zionism rarely is discussed. Yet it is central to understanding daily events in the Middle East. Dr. Joel Kovel's most recent book "Overcoming Zionism" is written with literary elegance, intellectual rigour, and draws upon the varied training and skills he has in psychoanalysis and the social sciences.

Copies of the book will be available at the meeting.
