"Using South Africa and Tanzania as examples, Erakat and Reynolds propose new models of decolonization, requiring return, reparations, and redistribution of wealth accumulated under Zionism, noting that the presence of settlers is less of a problem than the persistence of a settler colonial mindset. An eye-opening and thought-provoking read."—Booklist, Starred Review

"Of the windfall of books published on Israel this year, Confronting Zionism: Decolonizing Palestine and Building the World Anew may well be the most radical critique yet....Erakat and Reynolds argue that Palestine’s liberation offers a counterpoint view of a new world freed from these plagues.

"[Confronting Zionism] details how international law, in many ways a weapon of imperial powers, lacks the capacity to indict imperial criminals....What is particularly refreshing [about the book] is the wealth of Palestinian intellectual history that the authors share with us, revealing how Palestinians, not surprisingly, have always understood Zionism as a settler colonial movement and racist ideology that needs to be addressed through decolonial praxis....Ultimately, Confronting Zionism is about the failure of international law and the need to rely on organic intellectuals’ analysis and civil society organising for genuine liberation, rather than the superficial abolition of a system without addressing its ongoing material consequences."—The New Arab
