Controversy surrounds Jewish settlements in the occupied West Bank,
and the radical national and religious agendas at play there have
come to define the area in the minds of many. This study, however,
provides an alternative framework for understanding the process of
"normalization" in the life of Jewish residents. Considering a
wider range of historical and structural factors in which the
colonization of the West Bank developed it allows placing its
origins and everyday reality into a wider perspective. The works
collected consider the transformation of the landscape, the
patterns of relationships shared by the region's residents,
Palestinian and Jewish alike, and the lasting effects of Israel's
settlement policy. Stressed in particular are such factors as urban
planning, rising inequality and the retreat of the welfare state,
and the changing political economy of industry and employment. In
doing so, the authors collected here provide new insight into the
integration and segregation processes that are an integral part of
the broader historical trends shaping Israel/Palestine.
