The Palestinian Intifada Revisited

More about the book

Focusing on the dynamics of the first Palestinian intifada, this revised study explores the experiences of Palestinians during their active resistance against Israeli occupation. It highlights their efforts to establish alternative institutions and practices to challenge the occupation's foundations. Despite their hopes, the intifada's aspirations were ultimately thwarted, as the Israeli occupation persisted without Palestinian cooperation. The book emphasizes that the real leverage against the occupiers lies with the states and agencies supporting Israel, which continue to enable the denial of basic human rights to Palestinians.
