Unarmed and participatory, it offers an alternative to the seemingly failed tracks of armed struggle and diplomatic negotiations. With a discourse of rights and social justice, community-based popular committees overcome national and religious divides, drawing Jewish Israelis and diverse supporters from around the world to participate in direct-action campaigns on the ground in the West Bank. These campaigns include weekly Friday demonstrations, building camps on threatened land, reclaiming lost villages, disrupting settler commerce, and more. This book summarizes Palestinian traditions of popular struggle and presents original field research from the West Bank, drawing on several months of participant observation, over 25 hours of recorded interviews with Palestinian activists, and more than 200 questionnaires gaging public perceptions about the strategies of the popular committees. One of the book's major case studies is the village of Nabi Saleh, which recently became well known when one of its activists, a 16-year-old girl named Ahed Tamimi, was imprisoned for slapping Israeli soldiers outside her family home. The book offers insight into new waves of Palestinian popular protest, from the 2017 prayer protests in Jerusalem to the 2018 march of return in Gaza. Palestinian Popular Struggle is a valuable resource for researchers and students interested in War and Conflict Studies, Politics and the Middle East. 611 27 $a Al-Aqsa Intifada (2000-) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00804015 611 27 $a Intifada (1987-1993) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01721074 650 0 $a Palestinian Arabs $x Politics and government $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Palestinian Arabs $x Politics and government $y 21st century. 650 0 $a Protest movements $z West Bank $x History. 650 0 $a Protest movements $z Gaza Strip $x History. 650 0 $a Intifada, 1987-1993. 650 0 $a Al-Aqsa Intifada, 2000- 650 0 $a Civil disobedience $z West Bank $x History. 650 0 $a Civil disobedience $z Gaza Strip $x History. 650 0 $a Government, Resistance to $z West Bank $x History. 650 0 $a Government, Resistance to $z Gaza Strip $x History. 650 7 $a Civil disobedience. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00862481 650 7 $a Government, Resistance to. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00945663 650 7 $a Palestinian Arabs $x Politics and government. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01051620 650 7 $a Protest movements. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01079826 651 7 $a Gaza Strip. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01240021 651 7 $a West Bank. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01243256 648 7 $a 1900-2099 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 776 08 $i Online version: $a Carpenter, Michael J.
