Rezensionen

"This is the most comprehensive and well-documented study, examining Arabic studies in Israel in relation to security considerations. This important book is a contribution to sociolinguistics in general, and Arabic studies in particular, and also to the fields of political and social sciences, employing language to shed light on sociopolitical conflicts." (Muhammad Amara, Journal of Palestine Studies, Vol. 145, Winter, 2016)
