Popular Protest in Palestine: The History and Uncertain Future of Unarmed Resistance
Autor Marwan Darweish, Andrew Rigbyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 19 iul 2015
Popular Protest in Palestine provides an overview and analysis of the role and significance of unarmed civil resistance in the Palestinian national movement. Marwan Darweish and Andrew Rigby focus on the contemporary popular resistance movement in the Occupied Palestinian Territories, prefaced by a historical review of the thread of unarmed civil resistance that has run throughout the history of the Palestinian liberation struggle. The authors explore this underemphasized dimension of the Palestinian struggle, arguing that at the present juncture the popular resistance movement, especially in the West Bank, is the most significant form of struggle against the ongoing occupation.

Recenzii
“With Israeli occupation forces and the U.S.-led 'peace process' limiting both military and diplomatic options for achieving their freedom, Palestinians and their supporters are utilizing the power of popular unarmed resistance in their struggle for a viable independent state. Marwan Darweish and Andrew Rigby have written the most significant and comprehensive study of this important but under-appreciated part of the Palestinian resistance.”
"Darweish and Rigby, authors of Popular Protest in Palestine, discuss many of the major settings for Palestinian nonviolent resistance to the occupation—the villages of Bil’in, Nabi Salih, the Jerusalem neighborhoods of Silwan and Sheikh Jarrah, the South Hebron Hills, and so on. It is certainly true, as I can attest from personal experience, that one meets many remarkable, courageous, and astonishingly articulate people in these settings."
"This heavily researched book is also a personal journey of two authors clearly committed to the problems of the greater Palestinian-Israeli conflict....The book provides an important and rare look into the psyche of a region that cannot seem to shed this damnable conflict. The authors interview civil resistance activists in order to develop an account of their belief systems and provide firsthand accounts of the frontlines. Recommended."
“A sensitive, thoughtful study, based on personal conversations meticulously documented and analysed by two people committed to nonviolent change and confronted by the heartbreaking realities of the continued oppression of Palestinians. This book reveals the courage of their popular resistance—and of the solidarity of Jewish Israeli activists - and suggests that it is international solidarity that could at last tip the balance.”
"This book is a serious attempt to examine the issue of popular resistance in Palestine, and it does so in an admirably contextualized, historically aware, and detailed fashion."
