This book brings together an inter-disciplinary group of
Palestinian, Israeli, American, British and Irish scholars who
theorise 'the question of Palestine'. Critically committed to
supporting the Palestinian quest for self determination, they
present new theoretical ways of thinking about Palestine. These
include the 'Palestinization' of ethnic and racial conflicts, the
theorization of Palestine as camp, ghetto and prison, the
tourist/activist gaze, the role of gendered resistance, the
centrality of the memory of the 1948 Nakba (catastrophe) to the
contemporary understanding of the conflict, and the historic roots
of the contemporary discourse on Palestine. The book offers a novel
examination of how the Palestinian experience of being governed
under what Giorgio Agamben names a 'state of exception' may be
theorised as paradigmatic for new forms of global governance. An
indispensable read for any serious scholar.
