Palestine and Rule of Power: Local Dissent vs. International Governance: Middle East Today

Editat de Alaa Tartir, Timothy Seidel
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 12 ian 2019
This book explores how the rule of power relates to the case of occupied Palestine, examining features of local dissent and international governance. The project considers expressions of the rule of power in two particular ways: settler colonialism and neoliberalism. As power is always accompanied by resistance, the authors engage with and explores forms of everyday resistance to the logics and regimes of neoliberal governance and settler colonialism. They investigate wide-ranging issues and dynamics related to international governance, liberal peacebuilding, statebuilding, and development, the claim to politics, and the notion and practice of resistance. This work will be of interest for academics focusing on modern Middle Eastern politics, international relations, as well as for courses on contemporary conflicts, peacebuilding, and development.

Recenzii

“The individual contributions in this edited volume are all well worth a read. … All readers with a contemporary interest in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should read this book both because it provides a series of interesting approaches to critically understand the top-tier polices and, perhaps more importantly, due to its ability to ethnographically engage with the people living under these systems.” (Jørgen Jensehaugen, Journal of Peace Research, May 18, 2019)
“The volume contributes to ongoing debates on the Palestine-Israel conflict and the role played by the international community and international donors. … This represents a valuable contribution to the established literature on the conflict.” (Flavia Clementi, The International Spectator, Vol. 54 (4), 2019)

“All the contributions of this book are equally interesting and thought provoking … . In summary, this volume presents many new ideas and new approaches, an impressive range of ethnographic research and fieldwork, the use of both quantitative and qualitative work, and to top it off, is thoroughly theory oriented. … Palestine and Rule of Power should be on the desk of every student of contemporary Palestine.” (Helga Baumgarten, Journal of Palestine Studies, Vol. 68 (4), 2019)

“Beata Paragi recommends this volume for exploring the diversity of Palestinian actors, voices and views when it comes to local political demands and modes of resistance. … Palestine and Rule of Power is an excellent volume targeting advanced readers, a valuable contribution to the growing body of literature and a recommended read that explores the diversity of actors, voices and views on the Palestinian side.” (Beata Paragi, LSE Review of Books, blogs.lse.ac.uk, May 30, 2019)
