In this conversation, Antony Loewenstein speaks with Pulitzer Prize-winning author and translator Benjamin Moser about his new book Anti-Zionism: A Jewish History. Moser reflects on his personal journey from liberal Zionism to anti-Zionism, the impact of visiting Palestine, and the historical figures featured in his book, including Hannah Arendt and Nan Goldin. The discussion explores the origins of Zionism, the legacy of Theodor Herzl, Jewish identity, antisemitism, the war in Gaza, and the growing global debate around Israel and Palestine. Moser also discusses the reception of his book, criticism from major media outlets, winning the Pulitzer Prize for his biography of Susan Sontag, and the moral and political questions facing Jewish communities today.
