 In The Name Of Identity: Violence and the Need to Belong     

   By Amin Maalouf, 2003 - JD 15.000

In this searching and provocative meditation on the importance and ultimate meaning of identity, Maalouf examines belonging & self conception in the context of the modern world and contends that many of us would reject our inherited conceptions of identity to which we cling through habit, if only we examined them more closely.

 
 

 

   

 

   
 
   
 
   
 
   
The Nation and its New Women: The Palestinian Women's Movement 1920-1948 by Ellen L. Fleischmann – 2003.

The first comprehensive historical study of the emergence & development of the Palestinian Woman's movement in this important historical period, Fleischman not only shows what Palestinians accomplished within the political arena but also explores the social, cultural & economic contexts within which they operated.
   
Women and Gender in Early Jewish & Palestinian Nationalism, by Sheila Katz – 2003.

A study that explores the unique situation of Arab & Jewish Women in a particular place & time but nevertheless it underscores the commonality of women's struggles everywhere. It explores issues of women & gender from the late nineteenth through mid-twentieth centuries. Katz thinks that deconstruction of sexual and political identities will reveal hidden possibilities of inter- connectedness. Issues of women and gender were an intricate part of creating, defining and perpetuating conflict in Palestine.
