Andrea Molle's exhaustive investigation of Krav Maga is a massive contribution that will serve to fill a glaring gap in the study of martial arts. Hereafter, it must surely be included in the bibliography of all serious scholarly works looking at the political and social implications of martial arts and the connection between ritualized violence and the formation of national identity. Molle's masterful tome opens our eyes to the immense potential of this field of academic inquiry., In what ways is violence a necessary aspect of the modern nation state? In asking this provocative question, Andrea Molle opens a new chapter in the development of martial arts studies as well as political science more generally. Deftly weaving together pressing topics such as nationalism, political conflict, and violence manifested on both the interpersonal and political levels he is able to shine a bright light on some of the most pressing questions of our current social moment. This opening statement in the area of 'political hoplology' is sure to be referenced by a wide variety of scholars for years to come., In what ways is violence a necessary aspect of the modern nation state? In asking this provocative question, Andrea Molle opens a new chapter in the development of martial arts studies as well as political science more generally. Deftly weaving together pressing topics--such as nationalism, political conflict, and violence manifest on both the interpersonal and political levels--he is able to shine a bright light on some of the most pressing questions of our current social moment. This opening statement in the area of 'political hoplology' is sure to be referenced by a wide variety of scholars for years to come., Andrea Molle's exhaustive investigation of Krav Maga is a massive contribution that will serve to fill a glaring gap in the study of martial arts. Hereafter, it surely must be included in the bibliography of all serious scholarly works looking at the political and social implications of martial arts and the connection between ritualized violence and the formation of national identity. Molle's masterful tome opens our eyes to the immense potential of this field of academic inquiry., As the popularity of Krav Maga grows, it bears asking what relationship practitioners envision between the art, the state of Israel, and the Jewish people. Is Krav Maga merely seen as a highly efficacious means of defending oneself, or does aligning oneself with the art signify an ideological position? In asking questions such as these, Molle carves out a space for what he calls political hoplology. This book represents a much-needed addition to the growing field of martial arts studies by turning our attention to the ways in which martial arts not only have the potential to shape the identities of individual practitioners but may also affect how the public perceives the nations and ethnic groups that created or popularized those arts., Most people typically associate the martial arts - for example, Judo, Karate and Muay Thai - with the countries of the Far East, including Japan, China, South Korea and Thailand; however, a number of non-eastern Asian countries are also home to the martial arts, including Brazil, Mexico and Russia. Israel, too, falls within the latter group, its particular martial art known as Krav Maga, which is a Hebrew term for close quarters fighting... [Molle's] monograph offers an illuminating excursion into the history of Krav Maga, as well as a sensible interpretation of its role in building up both collective solidarity and individual self-empowerment. Scholars interested in the social, cultural and/ or political impact of this martial art should find his book useful to their academic pursuits.

Synopsis
The book examines the deep interplay of martial arts, combative, and self-defense practices with nationalism and ethno-religious politics., Krav Maga and the Making of Modern Israel examines the political implications of martial arts through an analysis of Zionism. Grounded in political science, martial arts studies, and hoplology, it presents a critical history of Krav Maga, the processes that have contributed to defining Israeliness , and the idea that limited violence is vital to maintain a cooperative society., Krav Maga and the Making of Modern Israel examines the political implications of martial arts through an analysis of Zionism. Grounded in political science, martial arts studies, and hoplology, it presents a critical history of Krav Maga, the processes that have contributed to defining Israeliness, and the idea that limited violence is vital to maintain a cooperative society., The book examines the deep interplay of martial arts, combative, and self-defense practices with nationalism and ethno-religious politics. It focuses on the complex formative process of ethno-religious communities, their growth and resilience, in the context of the establishment of the State of Israel and the contemporary Jewish Diaspora. By presenting the unique case of Krav Maga, literally meaning "hand to hand combat", which is a selfdefense system initially developed between the late 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries which is now considered a staple of Israeli culture, the book ultimately provides strong evidence in support of the idea that the understanding of physical violence proper to the martial arts is not only accepted and tolerated within modern egalitarian democracy but it is indeed needed as a profoundly unifying collective experience., This book examines the profound interplay of martial arts, combative, and self-defense disciplines with nationalism and ethno-religious politics through the analysis of Zionism, the birth of the State of Israel, antisemitism, and the life of the contemporary Jewish Diaspora in the United States. It connects martial arts studies and political science, spearheading the new field of political hoplology. Focusing on the complex formative process of national communities, their growth, resilience, and consequences for the individuals, Krav Maga and the Making of Modern Israel presents the unique case of Krav Maga (literally hand to hand combat), a self-defense system developed between the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, which is now considered a staple of Israeli culture and a prime self-defense practice. Through its chapters, the book provides strong evidence supporting the idea that physical violence is indeed needed as a unifying experience to allow national communities to emerge and thrive. Furthermore, it examines the growing importance of violence for modern democratic societies and suggests the existence of a "gladiatorial effect," or the need for a certain level of violence to exist to maintain a harmonious, stable, and cooperative society.
