Neve Gordon Biography

Neve Gordon is one of the most popular and richest Political Scientist who was born on June 15, 1965 in Israel. Neve Gordon, Hebrew: nyb grrdvn; born 15th June 1965), is an Israeli academic and professor. He is an international law professor at Queen Mary University of London. His research interests include human rights and the Israeli- Palestinian conflict. He was a former professor at Ben-Gurion University of the Nevev.

Gordon stated in a Los Angeles Times editorial that he supported the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions against Israel movement. He said that Israel had become a right-wing, apartheid nation and that he felt that he could not help but support this course. Some US donors threatened to withhold funding from Ben-Gurion University. This triggered a heated debate in Israel about academic freedom.

In 2009, after Gordon wrote an article for the Los Angeles Times supporting a boycott of Israel and calling Israel an apartheid state, Rivka Carmi, the president of Ben-Gurion University, declared that “academics who feel that way about their country are invited to look for different professional and personal accommodation,” and right-wing organisations demanded his department to be closed. In 2012, education minister Gideon Sa’ar called for Gordon’s dismissal. Gordon and his partner received threats to their lives and decided to move to London with their two sons, and Gordon became a professor at Queen Mary University.

Gordon, Ruchama Marton, and Gordon were co-authors of Torture: Human Rights, Medical Ethics, and the Case of Israel. He was also editor of From the Margins of Globalization. Critical Perspectives on Human Rights. In late 2008, University of California Press published Israel’s Occupation. Oxford University Press published his co-authored book The Human Right to Dominate in 2015.

Gordon was not only vocal in his criticism of Israeli policy, but he was also well-known in a high-profile dispute involving Steven Plaut. Plaut sued Gordon for libel. The Israeli magistrate court in Nazareth in May 2006 ruled in Gordon’s favor and ordered that Plaut pay Gordon 80,000 shekels as compensation, plus 15,000 shekels for legal fees. Both parties appealed to Nazareth District Court. In February 2008, the court upheld the libel judgment regarding a publication in the which Gordon was called a “Judenrat wannabe”, but reduced the damages to 10,000 Shekels (about $2700) as the court reversed three of the four libel claims. Plaut’s request for review by the Supreme Court of Israel was denied.

Directly after the February 2009 Israeli election, Gordon stated that it would have “devastating effects”. He also stated that the new Yisrael Beiteinu party possessed ‘neo-fascist’ tendencies. He concluded that the Obama administration should pressure the Likud-based government coalition economically and politically to adopt the two-state solution.
