More specifically, since the 1980s she has developed critical approaches to the study of Mizrahi Jews in the context of Israel and Palestine. Born to a Baghdadi family, Ella Habiba Shohat defines herself as an Arab Jew.〔''Movement Research: Performance Journal'' #5 (Fall-Winter 1992), p. 8.〕 Her writing has been translated into several languages, including: Arabic, Hebrew, Turkish, French, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Polish, and Italian. Shohat has also served on the editorial board of several journals, including: ''Social Text''; ''Critique: Critical Middle Eastern Studies''; ''Meridians: Feminism, Race, Transnationalism''; ''Interventions: International Journal of Postcolonial Studies''; and ''Middle East Journal of Culture and Communication''. She is a recipient of such fellowships as Rockefeller and the Society for the Humanities at Cornell University, where she also taught at the School of Criticism and Theory. Recently she was awarded a Fulbright research / lectureship at the University of São Paulo, Brazil, for working on the cultural intersections between the Middle East and Latin America. ==Bibliography== * (''Race in Translation: Culture Wars around the Postcolonial Atlantic'' ) (New York: NYU Press, 2012). * (Cinema: East/West and the Politics of Representation'' ) (Austin: University of Texas Press, 1989; new edition, London: I.B. Tauris, 2010). Endorsement by Edward W. Said (1989): "''Israeli Cinema'' is a tour-de-force. Not only is it theoretically sophisticated, it is also deeply rooted in the changing politics and perceptions of the Israeli predicament as they bear upon Israeli films. With brilliant humanistic insight, Shohat describes the underlying ideological myths and allegorical structures and contributes significantly to a new, enlarged understanding of the dynamics between Ashkenazi and Sephardic communities, and between them and the Palestinians." * (''Flagging Patriotism: Crises of Narcissism and Anti-Americanism'' ) (New York: Routledge, 2006). * ''Le sionisme du point de vue de ses victimes juives: les juifs orientaux en Israel'' (first published in 1988, with a new introduction, Paris; La Fabrique Editions, 2006). * (''Taboo Memories, Diasporic Voices'' ) (Durham: Duke University Press, 2006). * (''Multiculturalism, Postcoloniality, and Transnational Media'' ) (New Brunswick: Rutgers University Press, 2003). * ''Zikhronot Asurim'' (''Forbidden Reminiscences'') (Bimat Kedem LeSifrut Publishing with the Alternative Information Center, Jerusalem, 2001); Arabic translation, ''Thakariat Mamnu’a'', with a preface by Ismail Dabaj (Damascus: Dar Kan’an, 2004); and abridged selected chapters translated into Arabic in ''As.
