Routledge Handbook on Palestine
Editat de Michael Dumper, Amneh Badranen Limba Engleză Hardback – 18 dec 2024
To capture the diversity of Palestinian scholarship and to introduce readers to a mix of approaches and perspectives, both internationally established and emerging Palestinian scholars have contributed. The Handbook attempts to avoid narrowly framing Palestine around the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, incorporating post-colonial approaches attentive to a broader range of (hitherto overlooked) actors. While a significant proportion of the Handbook examines the contemporary period, it is divided up into four sections that together provide a detailed overview of the main developments in the region:
- A historical section that contextualizes the complex historical formation of contemporary Palestine – perhaps best regarded as a country but not yet a state.
- A section exploring the society, geography, economy, and identity of Palestine.
- A section on the political significance of Palestine, covering the dynamics between Jewish nationalism (Zionism) and Palestinian nationalism.
- A final section on culture, touching on architecture, literature, music, cuisine, education, and contemporary art.

Recenzii
"This Handbook of nearly thirty chapters is an immensely significant contribution to studies of Palestine the country, if not yet the modern state. Divided into four sections – a historical section; a social, geographical, and economic section; a third section on contemporary politics; and a final section on Palestinian culture – this Handbook addresses both orthodox as well as critical scholarship on Palestine and its people. It places Palestine and its history, particularly from the late nineteenth century, in a more central position to understand the political dynamics between Jewish nationalism (Zionism) and Palestinian nationalism, between settler colonialism and autochthonous awakening, and between different forms of social activism. This is a publication of immense importance for those who wish to have a more nuanced and critical understanding of contemporary Palestinian / Israeli struggles, and the significance of the 75 year Nakba."
Dawn Chatty, Emeritus Professor of Anthropology and Forced Migration, University of Oxford, UK
"As a political scientist and historian, I am privileged to endorse the comprehensive Routledge Handbook on Palestine which portrays all aspects of the politics, geography, demography, culture, and civilization of people still struggling to attain freedom and independence. This Handbook is comprehensive and meticulously written by experts and scholars registering the details of a people's profile struggling force for the last 75 years under Israeli occupation. This Handbook is a significant reference to students of the Middle East and those of geopolitics and should be adopted as a textbook in all major universities worldwide. It is very comprehensive, accurate, coherent, and objective. The content of such a Handbook is admirable and appreciated, and it is rare in our Palestinian library. Therefore, its endorsement is well-deserved."
