Based on over a decade of research and fieldwork in many disciplines-including history and historiography; anthropology, ethnography, and ethnomusicology; political economy and geography; linguistics; philosophy; and the history of science and technology-the book presented a radically different perspective than that presented by received opinion.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGiven the radical and iconoclastic nature of Alcalay's perspective, \u003ci\u003eAfter Jews and Arabs\u003c\/i\u003e met great resistance in attempts to publish it. Though completed and already circulating in 1989, it didn't appear until 1993. In addition, when the book was published, there wasn't enough space to include its original bibliography, a foundational part of the project.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Bibliography for\u003c\/i\u003e After Jews and Arabs presents the original bibliography, as completed in 1992, without changes, as a glimpse into the historical record of a unique scholarly, political, poetic, and cultural journey. The bibliography itself had roots in research begun in the late 1970s and demonstrates a very wide arc.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn addition to the bibliography, we include three accompanying texts here. In \"Behind the Scenes: Before \u003ci\u003eAfter Jews and Arabs, \u003c\/i\u003e\" Alcalay takes us behind the closed doors of the academic process, reprinting the original reader reports and his detailed rebuttals, and in \"A Bibliography for \u003ci\u003eAfter Jews and Arabs\u003c\/i\u003e A Brief Introduction,\" Alcalay contextualizes his own path to the work he undertook, in methodological, historical, and political terms.
