Abstract
- "Checkbook Zionism: Philanthropy and Power in the Israel–Diaspora Relationship" by Eric Fleisch examines the evolving relationship between Jewish agencies, NGOs, and American Jewish donors. The book explores the rise and decline of Checkbook Zionism, the culture and mechanics of the relationship, and the power dynamics between donors and recipients. It also delves into the contemporary era, analyzing shifting power dynamics and the redirection of donations. The author concludes that while the nature of the relationship has changed, elements of traditional power-sharing remain, and the power still rests with the recipient rather than the donor.
