Selections from the Irvine Museum by Jean Stern Harvey L Jones Janet Blake
This book focuses on migrant-settlers on the West Bank, i.e. people from the Jewish diaspora (US and Europe) who have and still are settling in the occupied territories and by that contributing to the rapid colonization of part of the areas which Palestinians as well as the International Society regard belonging to a future Palestine state. This research suggest that by analysing the background and motives of the migrant settlers, who in recent times have become an even more conspicuous and active participants in a conflict that historically mainly was seen as a conflict of security and territorial ownership but now increasingly are informed by religious nationalistic agenda, one can get an important insight to an significant aspect of the dynamic of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The migrant settlers are analyzed by means of theories on Identity, Diaspora, Community and institutions and Long-distance Nationalism in particular on the formation of religious, political and nationalist identity.| SKU | Unavailable |
