Israel's military court system, a centerpiece of Israel's apparatus
of control in the West Bank and Gaza since 1967, has prosecuted
hundreds of thousands of Palestinians. This authoritative book
provides a rare look at an institution that lies both figuratively
and literally at the center of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Lisa Hajjar has conducted in-depth interviews with dozens of
Israelis and Palestinians - including judges, prosecutors, defense
lawyers, defendants, and translators - about their experiences and
practices to explain how this system functions, and how its
functioning has affected the conflict. Her lucid, richly detailed,
and theoretically sophisticated study highlights the array of
problems and debates that characterize Israel's military courts as
it asks how the law is deployed to protect and further the
interests of the Israeli state and how it has been used to
articulate and defend the rights of Palestinians living under
occupation.
