Palestine Inside Out: An Everyday Occupation

Palestine Inside Out: An Everyday Occupation

â€œA compelling account . . . and a reminder that a true peace can be built only on justice.â€â€•Desmond M. Tutu
Tending oneâ€™s fields, visiting a relative, going to the hospital: for ordinary Palestinians, such activities require negotiating permits and passes, curfews and closures, â€œsterile roadsâ€ and â€œseam zonesâ€â€•bureaucratic hurdles ultimately as deadly as outright military incursion. In Palestine Inside Out, Saree Makdisi draws on eye-opening statistics, academic histories, UN reports, and contemporary journalism to reveal how the â€œpeace processâ€ institutionalized Palestiniansâ€™ loss of control over their inner and outer livesâ€•and argues powerfully and convincingly for a one-state solution. 33 photographs and 12 maps
