Reviews for The Fragmentation of Palestine: Identity and Isolation since the Second Intifada
This is a must-read book for those interested in settler colonial studies, colonial studies and post colonial studies. The book details in a smooth and comprehensive way the impact of the intertwining of colonialism and pseudo-national entity that led to the fragmentation and weakening of the Palestinian national identity after the Oslo Accords of 1993.
