Beyond Chutzpah: On the Misuse of Anti-Semitism and the Abuse of History is a book by Norman Finkelstein published by the University of California Press in August 2005. The book provides a critique of arguments used to defend Israel's stance in the Israeli–Palestinian conflict, including the use of the weaponization of antisemitism to deflect criticism of Israel. The book also compares Alan Dershowitz's earlier book, The Case for Israel, with the findings of mainstream human rights organisations, such as Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International (see also Dershowitz–Finkelstein affair). It includes an epilogue entitled Dershowitz v. Finkelstein: Who’s Right and Who’s Wrong? by Frank Menetrez, a former Editor-in-Chief of the UCLA Law Review.
