Beskrivning
Professor Julie Peteet believes that the concept of mobility is key to understanding how place and space act as forms of power, identity, and meaning among Palestinians in Israel today. In Space and Mobility in Palestine, she investigates how Israeli policies of closure and separation influence Palestinian concerns about constructing identity, the ability to give meaning to place, and how Palestinians comprehend, experience, narrate, and respond to Israeli settler-colonialism. Peteet's work sheds new light on everyday life in the Occupied Territories and helps explain why regional peace may be difficult to achieve in the foreseeable future.

Recensioner i media

Space and Mobility in Palestine is a welcome addition to the rich tradition of anthropological work on Palestine.(American Ethnologist) Read alongside works in cartography and history, this ethnography contributes to the anthropology of shrinking spaces, borders, checkpoints, militarization, and expropriation by documenting what it is like to live with major restrictions on mobility.(Anthropological Quarterly) [T]he book is the result of the work and reflections of a scholar who has worked with and written about Palestinians for over three decades. As such, it elaborates with great specificity on the theoretical contributions of thinkers like Foucault and Agamben, while providing new insights into the multifarious examples of contemporary settlercolonialism.(Anthropological Quarterly)
