Abowd deftly illuminates everyday life under Israel’s long military occupation as it is defined by processes and conditions of “apartness” and separation as Palestinians are increasingly regulated and controlled. Abowd examines how both national communities are progressively divided by walls, checkpoints, and separate road networks in one of the most segregated cities in the world. Drawing upon recent theories on racial politics, colonialism, and urban spatial dynamics, Colonial Jerusalem analyzes the politics of myth, history, and memory across an urban landscape integral to the national cosmologies of both Palestinians and Israelis and meaningful to all communities.” Ziyad Abu ‘Amr Islamic Fundamentalism in the West Bank and Gaza : Muslim Brotherhood and Islamic Jihad (Indiana University Press, 1994) Nasser Abufarhar The Making of a Human Bomb : An Ethnography of Palestinian Resistance (Duke University Press, 2009) Raouf Sa’d Abujaber & Felicity Cobbing Beyond the River : Ottoman Transjordan in Original Photographs (Stacey International, 2005) Said K.

Michael Adams and Christopher Mayhew Publish it not…The Middle East Cover-Up (Longman, 1975 / Signal Books, 2006) The authors take turns relating how Zionist opposition routinely confronted and sometimes defeated the pair : Adams, for his reporting in the Guardian, and Mayhew, for seeming stench of his concerns in the House of Commons. After almost 30 years as a Labour MP, Mayhew found himself harassed by Harold Wilson, who was unquestioningly loyal to the Israelis, and so he joined the Liberals. Adams was the Middle East correspondent when his reporting was critical of Israel in the 1960s, that resulted in a drop in sales.

Publisher’s blurb : “Palestinian and Israeli university students are presented with a catalogue of period photographs from 1948 and then asked to provide their personal impressions. These individual reactions are then analyzed by the scholars, providing a multi- perspective commentary and analysis that underscores the urgent need for building greater understanding for the common history of this region. A particularly insightful case study is presented by Menachem Klein and Mahmoud Yazbak who jointly investigate how the 1948 expulsion and deportation of Palestinian refugees from the villages of Aylut and Malul are remembered today, both at the individual and collective levels.” Note : This is a free download as well, via historyandreconciliation.org See also : Efrat Ben- Ze’ev : Remembering Palestine in 1948 – Beyond Historical Narratives (Cambridge University Press, 2011) Giorgio Agamben State of Exception (University of Chicago Press, 2005) Translated by Kevin Attell.
