Resisting Settler Colonialism in Palestine

This book explores Palestinian resistance and social movements within the framework of settler colonialism, global capitalism, and indigenous liberation struggles, examining how colonial structures shape dispossession and the diverse strategies Palestinians employ to resist occupation and state violence.

From eco-resistance in Masafer Yatta to feminist mobilizations, armed struggle, and international advocacy, the book highlights the fluid, intersectional, and historically contingent nature of resistance. It challenges the notion of Palestine as an isolated case, situating it within broader global patterns of settler colonial domination and anti-colonial struggles. The study demonstrates how repression often strengthens activism, fueling new forms of mobilization and deepening collective solidarity. Rather than offering a conclusive ending, it asserts that Palestinian resistance will continue as long as injustice persists, adapting to new realities while remaining rooted in collective aspirations for liberation.

Resisting Settler Colonialism in Palestine is essential reading for students and scholars of Middle Eastern studies, postcolonial studies, social movements, indigenous studies, and critical geography, as well as activists and researchers engaged with decolonization and anti-colonial praxis.
