Volume 10|Issue 38| Autumn 2021 |Articles

Abstract

​This special issue addresses problems in the study of the colonial-Zionist colonial project in Palestine, based on multiple and overlapping methodological frameworks from the social sciences and humanities. The theoretical contributions of the issue examine numerous important themes, such as: historical sociology, the formation of the settler colonial state, comparative colonial studies, the relationship of nationalism to colonialism, the colonial-settler imagination and its relationship to racism, violence and xenophobia, the relationship of legitimacy and sovereignty to the colonial origins of international law, and the role played by indigenous resistance in the development of the colonial control systems or the obfuscation of the national and the religious.
