Laura Robson and Arie Dubnov join us to talk about the history of partition—separating territories and peoples to create new states—and why it matters in a global context. In the book which Laura and Arie co-edited, Partitions: A Transnational History of Twentieth-Century Territorial Separation, they and the many authors who contributed to the project have brought together three important cases of partition in the twentieth century: Ireland in the 1920s, Israel and Palestine in 1937 and 1947, and India and Pakistan in 1948. It’s a phenomenal project that highlights the intersection of geopolitical developments and allows us to tie together what are usually seen as national histories in a global sense.

Arie Dubnov holds the Max Ticktin Chair of Israel Studies at George Washington University. Arie’s a historian of twentieth-century Jewish and Israeli history, with emphasis on the history of political thought, the study of nationalism, and decolonization. Among his publications are an intellectual biography Isaiah Berlin: The Journey of a Jewish Liberal (2012) and the edited volume Zionism—A View from the Outside (2010 [in Hebrew]), which seeks to put Zionist history in a larger comparative trajectory.
