Israeli Settlements in the Old City of Hebron
Islamic Heritage Architecture and Art II 199 ISRAELI SETTLEMENTS IN THE OLD CITY OF HEBRON WAEL SHAHEEN Department of Civil and Architectural Engineering, Palestine Polytechnic University, Palestine ABSTRACT Since the occupation of the city of Hebron in 1967, the Israeli authorities started a series of closure in the Old City both in public and private properties in order to impose the reality of the occupation on the city and its citizens and push them into abandoning it and to obliterate its features. Ever since that date, the occupation authorities have begun implementing a settlement project that aimed to surround the city with settlements. They established a set of settlement outposts in the neighborhoods that contain historical buildings, provided full protection to settlers, and took all measurements in placing pressure on the Palestinians in order to push them to leave by issued military orders that prevent the restoration and habitation of many buildings. They also completely closed all streets, neighborhoods and buildings of the Old City, forced curfews for long periods of time, and turned the Old City into a military barrack by establishing many barriers, monitoring and inspection points, which resulted the deportation of dozens of families, in addition to eliminating the economic recovery after shutting down many shops. Several parts of the Old City became completely deserted because of the economic consequences of land confiscation policy and many other policies like the multiple shutdowns and restrictions placed on movement. The Old City of Hebron still remains in 2017 similar to a ghost town, most of its streets are deserted and most of its shops are closed by welding iron, unlike the energetic and crowded streets on the other side of the checkpoint in area HI, where the Palestinian commercial activity moved to. -
Migration of Eretz Yisrael Arabs Between December 1, 1947 and June 1, 1948
[Intelligence Service (Arab Section)] June 30, 1948 Migration of Eretz Yisrael Arabs between December 1, 1947 and June 1, 1948 Contents 1. General introduction. 2. Basic figures on Arab migration 3. National phases of evacuation and migration 4. Causes of Arab migration 5. Arab migration trajectories and absorption issues Annexes 1. Regional reviews analyzing migration issues in each area [Missing from document] 2. Charts of villages evacuated by area, noting the causes for migration and migration trajectories for every village General introduction The purpose of this overview is to attempt to evaluate the intensity of the migration and its various development phases, elucidate the different factors that impacted population movement directly and assess the main migration trajectories. Of course, given the nature of statistical figures in Eretz Yisrael in general, which are, in themselves, deficient, it would be difficult to determine with certainty absolute numbers regarding the migration movement, but it appears that the figures provided herein, even if not certain, are close to the truth. Hence, a margin of error of ten to fifteen percent needs to be taken into account. The figures on the population in the area that lies outside the State of Israel are less accurate, and the margin of error is greater. This review summarizes the situation up until June 1st, 1948 (only in one case – the evacuation of Jenin, does it include a later occurrence). Basic figures on Arab population movement in Eretz Yisrael a. At the time of the UN declaration [resolution] regarding the division of Eretz Yisrael, the following figures applied within the borders of the Hebrew state: 1. -

1 2017 Annual Report 2017 Had the Dubious Distinction Of
. 2017 Annual Report 2017 had the dubious distinction of marking the 50th anniversary of Israel’s occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Gaza Strip. After half a century, during which Israel’s policies have created profound changes that indicate long-term intentions, it is clear that this reality cannot be viewed as temporary. In 2017, B'Tselem continued to document and publicize human rights violations, while exposing the injustice, violence and dispossession at the very core of the occupation regime, challenging its legitimacy in Israel and abroad, and helping to expedite its end. 1 Table of Contents 2017 in Numbers 3 Executive Director's Note 5 Marking the 50th year of the Occupation 6 Photography Exhibit 6 Media Surrounding the 50th Anniversary 8 Reports Published in 2017 8 Getting Off Scot-Free 8 Made in Israel: Exploiting Palestinian Land for Treatment of Israeli Waste 9 Unprotected: Detention of Palestinian Teenagers in East Jerusalem 9 Fatalities 10 Trigger-Happy Responses to Clashes, Stone-throwing Incidents, Demonstrations or Evading Arrest 10 A Shoot-to-Kill Approach in Cases Defined as Assault 10 Security Forces Violence Against Palestinians 11 The Gaza Strip – A Decade of Siege 11 Separating Families 12 Gaza Executions 12 Prisoners and Detainees 13 Hunger Strike 13 Minor detainees 13 Communities Facing Demolitions and Displacement in Area C 14 Communities Under Imminent Threat of Transfer 14 An Increasingly Coercive Environment 15 Demolition Data 15 Demolitions in East Jerusalem 16 Batan al-Hawa - -

G. Robert Stange
Recent Studies in Nineteenth-Century English Literature G. ROBERT STANGE THE FIRST reaction of the surveyor of the year's work in the field of the nineteenth century is dismay at its sheer bulk. The period has obviouslybecome the most recent playground of scholars and academic critics. One gets a sense of settlers rushing toward a new frontier, and at 'times regrets irra- tionally ithe simpler, quieter days. At first glance the massive acocumulation of intellectual labor which I have undertaken to describe seems to display no pattern whatsoever, no evidence of noticeable trends. Yet, to the persistent gazer certain characteristics ultimately reveal themselves. There is a discernible tendency? for example, to lapply the concepts of po'st Existential theology to the work of the Romantic poets; and in general these poets are now being approached with an intellectual excitement which is very different from the diffuse "romantic" enthusiasm of twenty or thirty years ago. It must also be said that the Victorian novelists continue to come into 'their own. lThe kind of serious attention 'thiatit is now assumed Dickens and George Eliot require was a rare thing a decade ago; it is undoubtedly good that this rigorous- thiough sometimes over-solemn-analysis is now being extended to 'some of 'the lesser novelists of the period. It is also still to be noted as an unaccountable oddity th'at reliable editions of even the most important nineteenth-century authors are not always available. Of the novelists 'only Jane Austen has so far 'been critically edited. The Victorian poets, with the exception of Arnold, are in textual chaos, and ;though critical editions of Arnold's and Mill's prose are forthcoming, other prose writers have not 'been much heeded. -

Over subsequent decades, scientists and social scientists increasingly applied the language of interconnection to such diverse collective forms as computer webs, terrorist networks, economic systems, and disease ecologies.

Why Does Daniel Deronda's Mother Live in Russia? Catherine Brown
Why Does Daniel Deronda’s Mother Live In Russia? Catherine Brown Eliot, like Daniel, wanted to avoid “a merely English attitude in studies” (Daniel Deronda [DD] 155). She educated herself to a degree which her critics struggle to match about Germany, Spain, France, Italy, Bohemia, and Palestine -- but not about Russia. In her relative lack of interest in this country she was typical of her own country and time; Lewes’s acquaintance Laurence Oliphant noted in his 1854 account of his travels in Russia that “the scanty information which the public already possesses has been of such a nature as to create an indifference towards acquiring more” (vii). Apart from the works of Turgenev, Eliot is not known to have read any Russian literature, even though Gogol’, Dostoevskii, and Tolstoi would have been available to her in French translation. The take-off decade for English translations of Russian literature started in the year of her death (Brewster 173). Why, then, having hitherto mentioned the country in her fiction only as a source of linseed in The Mill on the Floss, did she choose Russia as the location of Leonora Alcharisi’s second marriage, self-imposed exile from singing and Europe, and emotional and physical decline? Of course, Russia is not simply imposed on Alcharisi by Eliot; she also chose it for herself (this article will treat her and her second husband as though they were real people, in the interests of historical investigation). After the death of her first husband she had suitors of many countries, including Sir Hugo Mallinger, and there is no reason to think that by the age of thirty her options had narrowed to a single man. -
Future-Proofing a Decade of Change Open Innovation 2030
Open Innovation 2030 Future-proofing a decade of change Open Innovation 2030 From covid-19 to climate change, economic recessions to technological disruption, 2020 has served as a reality check that global crises are only going to become more common in today’s increasingly-complex and connected world. ‘Open Innovation 2030: Future-proofing a decade of change’, a thought leadership program commissioned by HCL in partnership with The Economist Intelligence Unit, explores how companies can seize opportunity in complexity to not only survive, but thrive, now and in the coming decade. To rise to the occasion, business leaders must align on an enduring vision to build a better future; one underpinned by equality, sustainability and global cooperation. Enterprise risk management typically focuses on ‘known risks,’ amplifying them to model the maximum impact so that the worst case scenario can be planned for. At the other end of the scale, ‘unknown risks’ are considered outlying cases, like the asteroids that sometimes fly by Earth—we know they exist and have plans that can be attempted as a possible first response, but they largely remain on the edges of our planning blueprints. ven with a canvas that wide, structures.
