Marteijn PhD Candidate, School of Divinity, Centre for the Study of World Christianity, University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh, UK [email protected] Abstract Palestinian Christians are a minority of approximately 1 or 2% in a context marked by conflict, expulsions, and ongoing emigration. Despite all this, Palestinian Christians have made a significant contribution to society in the spheres of politics, the arts, sci- ence, and social welfare. Moreover, from the 1980s onwards, this Palestinian context of struggle has also been the source for the emergence of a socially and politically committed contextual theology. This article analyses the development of Palestinian contextual theology by examining theological publications by Palestinian theologians. It identifies liberation, reconciliation, witness, ecumenism, and interfaith-dialogue as some of the dominant theological themes. What unites these publications is a theological engagement with the Palestinian Christian identity in the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Keywords contextual theology – Israeli-Palestinian conflict – Kairos theology – Palestinian Christianity – Palestinian theology – public theology 1 An Arab Christian Awakening Palestinian Christians feel deeply rooted in Palestinian society. They under- stand themselves as part of the Palestinian community and actively contribute to its flourishing.

  • A Century of Palestinian Nationalism: Modes of Political Organization and Representation Since 1919
    A CENTURY OF PALESTINIAN NATIONALISM: MODES OF POLITICAL ORGANIZATION AND REPRESENTATION SINCE 1919 The first Muslim-Christian Associations (MCA) were formed at the end of 1918. In the face of the British strategy of ‘divide and rule’ and of the Balfour Declaration of 1917 which referred to the Arab majority in Palestine simply as ‘non-Jewish communities,’ the establishment of the MCAs was intended to present a united front against the colonial power. Despite the presence of other nationalist organizations such as al-Nadi al-Arabi, al-Muntada al-Adabi, and al-Jamiyyah al- Khayriyah, the MCAs developed into a nation-wide body with branches in many cities. In January 1919, the First Palestinian Congress was held in Jerusalem to coincide with the Paris Peace Conference. The attendance at the Conference of Chaim Weizmann, who presented Zionist claims, was a trigger for the calling of the First Palestinian Congress, in order to submit Arab and Palestinian counterclaims at the Conference. Between 1919 and 1928, seven Palestinian congresses were held. They produced two opposing trends: one calling for the formation of a representative assembly, and another with a Pan-Arab ideology. Concurrent with the existence of MCAs, the Supreme Muslim Council was set up by the British mandatory authorities in 1922. A complex situation resulted from multiple proposals for an elected Legislative Council on the one hand, the formation of the Supreme Muslim Council on the other, and the role of the MCAs and the various Palestinian Congresses. These initiatives reflected conflicting political ideologies that have affected Palestinian politics since 1919.

  • Arabness, Turkey and the Palestinian National Imagination in the Eyes Of
    Introduction The historical study of various things “Palestinian” tends to dwell on the Palestinian reaction to and engagement with Zionism. Abu-Lughod first brought attention to this phenomenon many years ago, writing that “the Palestine of 1948 was a very different Palestine from that of 1917 and that difference is not solely the result of the impact of either imperialist or Zionist.”1 Some thirty years after he penned these prescient remarks, Michelle Campos and Rashid Khalidi reemphasized that the scholarly study of Palestinian history in some context other than Zionism remains the central dilemma in the field of Palestine studies.2 This paper is one attempt to move beyond the Zionist-Palestinian encounter by examining the ways in which Palestinian nationalists looked to their neighbors in the Arab world and Turkey as a source of Arabness, Turkey inspiration during the formative years of the Palestinian national movement, 1919-1926. and the Palestinian I explore this material and discursive National “turn to the East” through the Palestinian newspaper Mir’at al-Sharq (Mirror of the Imagination in the East), the chief organ of the opposition Eyes of faction (mu`aridun) in Palestinian political life of the Mandate period. In its attempt to Mir’at al-Sharq discredit the Husseini-dominated national leadership, the paper frequently looked to 1919-1926 Egypt, Syria, Turkey and elsewhere with Zachary J.
