Abstract

The three papers on this panel approach the issue of relations with Israel from three different disciplinary standpoints: Fischer based on the cultural food politics of Palestine during World War II, Sabba-Elran on the way the Israel-Diaspora relationship is navigated through jokes, and Melissa Weininger on the more symbolic representations of Israelis and diasporic types through vampire images in pop culture
