Biography
Eva Etzioni-Halevy is a Holocaust Survivor. She is Professor Emerita of Political Sociology at Bar-Ilan University, Israel. She has published many academic books and writes Biblical novels. Etzioni-Halevy has previously taught at Tel Aviv University and Australian National University.
Review of the first publication:
“Etzioni-Halevy has assembled sufficient evidence to support her central thesis, and this is no mean feat. Her sensitive use of qualitative historical and occasionally quantitative material is truly impressive—indeed, exemplary for this type of sociological research.”
— Peter Abell, University of Surrey
