Exploring the Palestinian Student Movement from an historical and
sociological perspective, this book demonstrates how Palestinian
national identity has been built in the absence of national
institutions, whilst emphasizing the role of higher education as an
agent of social change, capable of crystallizing patterns of
national identity. Focussing on the political and social activities
of Palestinian students in two arenas - the West Bank and Gaza
Strip, and the Palestinian diaspora, Students & Resistance
covers the period from 1952-2000. The book investigates the
commonality of the goal of the respective movements in securing
independence and the building of a sovereign Palestinian state,
whilst simultaneously comparing their development, social tone and
the differing challenges each movement faced. Examining a plethora
of sources including; Palestinian student magazines, PLO documents,
Palestinian and Arabic news media, and archival records, to
demonstrate how the Palestinian Student Movements became a major
political player, this book is of interest to scholars and students
of Palestinian History, Politics and the Arab-Israeli Conflict.
