British mandatory rule created a new infrastructure of urban life
in Haifa and attracted a large number of Arabs to the city. But
while the development of Zionist economic enterprises was
facilitated and the Jewish immigrant population grew, the spheres
in which the Arab population could develop were limited. May
Seikaly considers the social and economic structure of Haifa before
1918 and examines the process of change which took place. She looks
at the attempts made by the Arab community to cope with
increasingly unfavourable economic and political conditions,
showing how the impotence of the leadership, hardship and
dislocating conditions, caused popular grievances and frustration
and culminated in the revolt of 1936-39, which had its breeding
ground in Haifa.
