08Jul23

Abstract: This essay reviews three contributions to a growing critical literature on Palestine political economy, pushing the analytical envelope that had prevailed for decades, powered by a ‘new wave’ of mainly Palestinian scholars. These seek to situate the struggle in a broader ‘inter-sectional’ framework (analysing the combined impacts of settler colonialism, racialism, capitalism and indigeneity, among other concepts) that identifies with, and explicitly combats for, Palestinian rights and agency. The works reviewed here falls squarely within that legacy.

  • Settler colonialism is a global and transnational phenomenon, and as much a thing of the past as a thing of the present. Settlers 'come to stay': they are founders of political orders who carry with them a distinct sovereign capacity.
