The title of the book -- Implicate Relations -- is suggested as a
notion which characterizes the nature of social relations in
general and the relations between Israelis and Palestinians in
particular. According to it, Israelis and Palestinians, as
societies and as individuals, are not definable independently of
each other. In a kind of implicate relation one is enfolded within
the other to the extent that Palestinian national identity can be
seen as a Zionist creation. Implicate relations further implies
that societies are socio-spatial entities which come into being and
acquire their collective self-consciousness and self-identity
through a process of spatial dialectics. As illustrated throughout
the discussions in the book, spatial dialectics was the process
through which European Jews were driven into an identity crisis
once their (spatial) Ghetto walls disintegrated and they thus
became conscious of their nationalist-political identity. And it is
this process through which, several decades later, the Arabs in
Israel were forced into an identity crisis and became conscious of
their Palestinian national identity once the Zionists had defined
the boundaries of their future Jewish state. It is also the process
through which Israelis and Palestinians became engaged in implicate
relations. This is illustrated in the book by reference to
historical events which have led to the emergence of Israelis and
Palestinians as socio-spatial entities, and by means of empirical
analyses of Palestinian labour in Israel, Jewish settlement in the
occupied territories, and cognititive maps of Israelis and
Palestinians. These empirical analyses are based on data collected
in three large-scale fieldsurveys among Palestinian workers and job
hunters in Israel, and among Israeli settlers in the occupied
territories.
