Soldiering Under Occupation - Processes of Numbing among Israeli Soldiers in the Al-Aqsa Intifada (Paperback, New)

Often, violent behavior or harassment from a soldier is dismissed by the military as unacceptable acts by individuals termed, OC rotten apples.OCO In this study, the author argues that this dismissal is unsatisfactory and that there is an urgent need to look at the (mis)behavior of soldiers from a structural point of view. When soldiers serve as an occupational force, they find themselves in a particular situation influenced by structural circumstances that heavily influence their behavior and moral decision-making. This study focuses on young Israeli men and their experiences as combat soldiers in the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF), particularly those who served in the OC Occupied Palestinian TerritoriesOCO (OPT) during the OC Al Aqsa Intifada, OCO which broke out in 2000. In describing the soldiersOCO circumstances, especially focusing on space, the study shows how processes of numbing on different levels influence the (moral) behavior of these soldiers."
