This book explores the political economy of Palestine through
critical, interdisciplinary, and decolonial perspectives,
underscoring that an approach to economics that does not consider
the political-a de-politicized economics-is inadequate to
understanding the situation in occupied Palestine. A critical
interdisciplinary approach to political economy challenges
prevailing neoliberal logics and structures that reproduce racial
capitalism, and explores how the political economy of occupied
Palestine is shaped by processes of accumulation by exploitation
and dispossession from both Israel and global business, as well as
from Palestinian elites. A decolonial approach to Palestinian
political economy foregrounds struggles against neoliberal and
settler colonial policies and institutions, and aids in the
de-fragmentation of Palestinian life, land, and political economy
that the Oslo Accords perpetuated, but whose histories of
de-development over all of Palestine can be traced back for over a
century. The chapters in this book offer an in-depth
contextualization of the Palestinian political economy, analyze the
political economy of integration, fragmentation, and inequality,
and explore and problematize multiple sectors and themes of
political economy in the absence of sovereignty.

This meticulously curated edited volume presents an assemblage of
insightful, critical, and contemporary perspectives on how Israeli
domination has been sustained and reproduced in new forms and means
using various mechanisms and techniques of control, coloniality,
and settler colonialism. Based on original empirical fieldwork, the
contributors to this book adopt interdisciplinary and decolonial
approaches in their examination of the intricate functions and
structures of domination that permeate Palestinian life by
illuminating the power dynamics at play and revealing the
mechanisms that sustain the settler-colonial regime. This book
identifies sites of colonial control and domination exerted on
Palestine by Israel, and demonstrates how these sites of control
are also sites of Palestinian resistance. The first section
explores the political sites of control by focusing on
governmentality, institutions, and technologies and mechanisms of
control including how Israel manages access to health, life and
death. The second section examines the economic mechanisms of
exploitation, dispossession, and de-development including banking,
taxation and the relationships between finance capital, aid and
military occupation. The third section turns attention to
environmental sites of control, focusing on land, indigeneity,
space and racial capitalism. Finally, section four scrutinizes the
intellectual sites of control, highlighting how norms, narratives,
and knowledge production perpetuate domination.
From the River to the Sea: Palestine and Israel in the Shadow of
'Peace' provides original analyses of how different coping
strategies were developed as well as new forms of political
expression, interaction, and mobilization since the 1993 peace deal
between the Palestine Liberation Organization and Israel. Its
premise is that an historical realism is essential in order to
develop a route out of the post-Oslo impasse that extended and
solidified the power imbalance under the auspices of 'peace'. The
book includes chapters from experts across the disciplines of
anthropology, economics, law, political science and sociology to
map out and critically assess the impacts and responses to this
'peace' in different geographical and political settings. These
innovative analyses also investigate processes that might enable a
future to be built based on greater equality and an end to the
oppression and violence that currently exists between the Jordan
River and the Mediterranean Sea (and beyond).
From the River to the Sea: Palestine and Israel in the Shadow of
'Peace' provides original analysis of how communities have
developed coping strategies and created foundations for new forms
of political expression, interaction, and mobilization since the
1993 peace deal between the Palestine Liberation Organization and
Israel. Its premise is that an historical realism is essential in
order to develop a route out of the post-Oslo impasse that
incubated and expanded a massive asymmetric power contrast under
the auspices of 'peace'. The book brings together experts from
Palestine, Israel, and further afield, and from across the
disciplines of law, economics, political science, and anthropology
to map out and critically assess the impacts and responses to this
'peace' in different geographical and political settings. These
innovative analyses also investigate processes that might enable a
future to be built based on greater equality and an end to the
