Architecture and development : Israeli construction in Sub-Saharan Africa and the settler colonial imagination, 1958-1973

comPosing these notes during the coviD- 19 pandemic deepens my appreciation of the intellectual community that sustains prolonged efforts such as writing a book—and renders them worthwhile. From its beginning as a seminar paper, Architecture and Development has owed its formation at every step to an always converging and diverging circle of friends and family, mentors and colleagues, institutions and fellow travelers.Originating during my doctoral studies at Columbia University’s Grad-uate School of Architecture, Planning and Preservation, this book was born out of the camaraderie of mentors—most notably Felicity D. Scott, Reinhold Martin, and Gwendolyn Wright—and peers, among them Gin-ger Nolan, María Gonzáles Pendás, Marta Caldeira, and Peter Minosh, whose brilliance, rigor, and constant challenging of architectural history’s boundaries and stakes shaped the intellectual environment that fostered this project. Conversations with Hannan Hever on the study of Zionist ideology have had a major impact on this work. Impassioned debates with Neta Feniger and Anat Mooreville, both of whom worked on closely related subjects, helped refine my arguments.
