An Israeli Anthropologist's Testimony on the Rise and Fall of a Protest Movement on Campus
The narrative highlights the activism of AD KAN, a protest movement formed by Israeli academics at Tel Aviv University during the first Palestinian Intifada, opposing the occupation of Palestinian territories.

The book also engages with theoretical discussions on the intellectual's role in society and draws parallels with academic activism in other countries during times of political turmoil.
