University Microfilms International INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again-beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For illustrations that cannot be satisfactorily reproduced by xerographic means, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and inserted into your xerographic copy. These prints are available upon request from the Dissertations Customer Services Department. 5. Some pages in any document may have indistinct print. In all cases the best available copy has been filmed. University M icrofilm s International 300 N. Zeeb Road Ann Arbor, Ml 48106 Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Al-Jubeir ABSTRACT This thesis is a study of the special status of the Prlestine Liberation Organization in international law. To facilitate the analysis of the status of the Palestine Liberation Organization, the hypothesis examines four aspects of the PLO's role in the international system. The first aspect concerns the PLO as a major non-state actor in the global system. The second aspect illustrates the international personality of the PLO, both as a government- in-exile and as a "public body." The third aspect considers the organization's rights and duties under the law of war. The PLO’s status under the international law of war encompasses the "just war" concept and the contemporary meaning of "war of liberation/resistance" under international conventions. The fourth aspect examines the concept of Jihad under the Islamic law of nations and its application to the PLO, although the PLO does not regard itself as an Islamic movement. i i Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

Wilson, chairman, and Dr. Robert W. Gregg, for their encouragement, comments, and criticism which enabled me to crystallize many of the ideas found in this research. A special word of thanks goes to my brothers and sisters— Nawal, Nahlah, Maher, Mazen and Halah— for their support and patience during the initial research stage and throughout the tedious writing and editing process. I also would like to acknowledge my indebtedness to my brother Adel, who took time from his doctoral studies to review the numerous copies and revisions of this work. Finally, I would like to express my thanks to the government of Saudi Arabia for providing me with the opportunity to study in the United States. While so many people have affected the final outcome of this research, the ultimate responsibility of the paper's content, however, is mine. Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • Urban Arab Palestine, No-Go Areas, and the Conflicted Course of British Counter-Insurgency During the Great Rebellion, 1936–1939
    Chapter 6 “Government Forces Dare Not Penetrate”: Urban Arab Palestine, No-Go Areas, and the Conflicted Course of British Counter-Insurgency during the Great Rebellion, 1936–1939 Simon Davis The Great Palestine Arab rebellion against British rule, sometimes termed the first authentic intifada,1 lasted from April 1936 until summer 1939. The British Mandate’s facilitation of Zionist expansion in Palestine had since the 1920s recurrently aroused violent Arab protest, mainly at urban points of interface with Jewish communities. Initially, the great rebellion seemed just such an- other occurrence, beginning with inter-communal riots in Manshiyeh, the mixed Arab-Jewish workers’ suburb separating the Jewish city of Tel Aviv from its mainly Arab neighbor Jaffa. But despite the reinforcement of exhausted Palestine Police with 300 Cameron Highlanders, a quarter of the infantry in Palestine, the disorders metamorphosed into lasting, territory-wide Arab civil disobedience. Coordinated by National Committees in each principal town, elite leaders hurriedly formed the Jerusalem-based Arab Higher Committee, hoping to preserve leadership over qualitatively new levels of nationally con- scious activism. Proliferating rural sniping and sabotage, mainly on Jewish settlements, most engaged the British military, predisposed to familiar small- war, anti-banditry traditions, largely derived from experience in India. But urban political violence, mainly in the form of reciprocally escalating Arab and Jewish bombings, shootings and stabbings, was left to the increasingly over- whelmed police. Consequent loss of control over Arab towns forced the British High Commissioner, Sir Arthur Wauchope, to invoke emergency regulations in June 1936. But subsequent military repression, frequently contemptuous of civil political context, merely aggravated Arab resistance, which was trans- formed, British observers noted, from past patterns of spasmodic anti-Zionist violence into a comprehensive uprising against British Mandatory rule itself.

  • The Intifadah and the 1936-1939 Uprising: a Comparison of the Palestinian Arab Communities 1
    The Intifadah and the 1936-1939 Uprising: A Comparison of the Palestinian Arab Communities 1 Kenneth W. Stein The Carter Center March, 1990 Table of Contents 1. Executive Summary 2. Part I-Similarities 3. Part II-Comparisons I. Palestinian Leadership II. Character and Participation III. The Islamic Dimension IV. Duration and Effects 4. Part III - Conclusions 5. About the Author Executive Summary When comparing the 1936-1939 Palestinian uprising in various parts of western Palestine to the present intifadah, 2 taking place in the West Bank, the Gaza Strip, and East Jerusalem, the most striking conclusion is the large number of general similarities between these two manifestations of Palestinian national consciousness. 3 The two most significant differences between the uprisings, however, are first, that the intifadah generated a deeper and more prolonged Palestinian national coherence across all classes than did its predecessor. Second, the intifadah clarified and crystallized Palestinian opinion which in conjunction with other events helped to create a historic compromise in Palestinian public policy. Other major differences between the two uprisings are self-evident. Many pertain to the political environments in which both uprisings unfolded. During the 1936-1939 uprising, there were no existing UN resolutions about Palestine. There was no Israel, no Israeli Arab population, no Palestinian political organization of the stature and strength of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), no decade-old Egyptian-Israeli peace treaty as a backdrop to an ongoing larger negotiating process, no decision made by the Hashemites in the midst of the uprising to place the responsibility of diplomatic progress on the shoulders of the Palestinian leadership, no willingness by a significant number of leading Palestinian Arab politicians to accept a Jewish state in a portion of Palestine, and no corresponding willingness on the part of an equally important number of Zionist/Israel leaders to assent to the legitimacy of Palestinian national aspirations.

  • CDC) Dataset Codebook
    The Categorically Disaggregated Conflict (CDC) Dataset Codebook (Version 1.0, 2015.07) (Presented in Bartusevičius, Henrikas (2015) Introducing the Categorically Disaggregated Conflict (CDC) dataset. Forthcoming in Conflict Management and Peace Science) The Categorically Disaggregated Conflict (CDC) Dataset provides a categorization of 331 intrastate armed conflicts recorded between 1946 and 2010 into four categories: 1. Ethnic governmental; 2. Ethnic territorial; 3. Non-ethnic governmental; 4. Non-ethnic territorial. The dataset uses the UCDP/PRIO Armed Conflict Dataset v.4-2011, 1946 – 2010 (Themnér & Wallensteen, 2011; also Gleditsch et al., 2002) as a base (and thus is an extension of the UCDP/PRIO dataset). Therefore, the dataset employs the UCDP/PRIO’s operational definition of an aggregate armed conflict: a contested incompatibility that concerns government and/or territory where the use of armed force between two parties, of which at least one is the government of a state, results in at least 25 battle-related deaths (Themnér, 2011: 1). The dataset contains only internal and internationalized internal armed conflicts listed in the UCDP/PRIO dataset. Internal armed conflict ‘occurs between the government of a state and one or more internal opposition group(s) without intervention from other states’ (ibid.: 9). Internationalized internal armed conflict ‘occurs between the government of a state and one or more internal opposition group(s) with intervention from other states (secondary parties) on one or both sides’(ibid.). For full definitions and further details please consult the 1 codebook of the UCDP/PRIO dataset (ibid.) and the website of the Department of Peace and Conflict Research, Uppsala University: http://www.pcr.uu.se/research/ucdp/definitions/.

    Palestinian Representation and the Struggle for Statehood Ammar Hijazi A dissertation presented to the faculty of Arts in the University of Malta for the degree of Master in Contemporary Diplomacy May 2010 Declaration I hereby declare that this dissertation is my own original work. Ammar Hijazi 31 May 2010, New York, USA ~ i ~ Acknowledgments To my parents who taught me how to love my homeland and take pride in being a Palestinian; to my wife for her boundless love, patience and support. I am also grateful to my colleagues at work; Ambassador Riyad Mansour for his support and understanding; my dear friend Feda Abdelahdi for her support and assistance; thanks too to my dear colleagues Nadya, Yussef, and Somaia for their support and encouragement. Last but not least, my gratitude goes to Ambassador Victor Camilleri, my mentor, for his valued advice and comments, which gave me the guidance, encouragement and enthusiasm to accomplish this important achievement. ~ ii ~ Dedication To those who dedicated their lives and sacrificed selflessly for Palestine's freedom ~ iii ~ Abstract Palestinian national identity evolved as Palestinians came under the rule of a colonial power with an agenda whose aim contradicted their very existence as a nation. Quickly, Palestinian political activists realized that forming a uniting and unified representative body that could engage the international and regional players was a political and practical requirement for the achievement of their national aspirations. But with the formation of the first Palestinian representative body, the struggle for independence began and with it, the crucial battle for recognition. Palestinian representation was greatly and negatively affected by competing regional and international players.
