More about the book

Exploring the intersection of financial debt and spatial dynamics, the book reveals how debt in Ramallah post-2008 reflects the financialization of the Palestinian economy amid Israeli settler colonialism. It examines the ways debt perpetuates economic instability and subordination, intertwining personal credit with social obligations. Through residents' narratives, Harker illustrates debt's impact on urban movement, local economies, and political violence, while also highlighting its role in fostering resilience and adaptation among Palestinians living under occupation.
