    Comrades And Enemies: The Relational Paradigm

    Due to this, there is a tendency amongst scholars to show a disproportionate amount of attention to the Jewish historical context, such has the Yishuv and Zionism. The majority of information that has been accumulated has been pieced together post 1948 and 1967, after the forced dispersions of Arabs from their lands. The forced removal of Arabs resulted in the destruction of important historical documents from archives, libraries, and personal property that would have contained important information regarding Palestinian ways of life. Consequently, while the relational paradigm is more suitable for accuracy in depicting how Jews and Arabs interacted with one another than the dual society paradigm, it does not provide scholars and historians with all the answers they need to fill in all the blank spaces in Arab life; economics, politics, culture, and social norms. According to Lockman, the most important factor that led towards the relational paradigm came into existence because once the state of Israel was “established,” they were no longer able to completely deny the presence of the Arab population living within their midst. The Jewish scholars wanted to know more about them and to what extent they were effecting Jewish…

    A Gathering Of Old Men Analysis

    With some connections to the idea of struggle and survival, we can use The Inheritance of Exile by Susan Muaddi Darraj and A Gathering of Old Men by Ernest J. Gaines to show that a home may not always be a safe and secure place. Both stories represent the importance of a rooted home with the exceptions to the difficulties within that home. We will see the struggles behind the immigrant Palestinian women now living in America as they share their personal stories with their daughters, of living in refugee camps. As for the old men gathered at a Louisiana sugarcane plantation known as Marshalls. They await Fix Boutan’s arrival for the murder of his son Beau Boutan. They will share their personal and collective…

    How Does Priestley Present Love In An Inspector Calls

    At the beginning of the play, Sheila and Gerald’s relationship is unbalanced because Gerald sees himself as the dominant one, and is controlling. Sheila is naïve, quite immature for her age and impressionable. Gerald chose and bought the engagement ring for Sheila, without her having any say about it, and she just accepts that without questioning Gerald. She says ‘Is this one you wanted me to have?’ which connotes her willingness to be controlled. The audience realises how materialistic their relationship is as they value power and money above anything else. Sheila says ‘I think its prefect. Now I really feel engaged’ which seems an innocent enough statement, but suggests underneath that the relationship is quite shallow as only then when ring (a sign of wealth) was present makes Sheila feel properly engaged.…

    How Did The Palestinian Land Take Over By Israel?

    On the West Bank and Gaza Strip, Palestinian land has been increasingly taken over by Israel for years. An extremist Jewish group called the Zionists, emerged in the late 1800s , seeking to find a homeland for the Jews, and searching in both Africa and the Americas before finally settling on Palestine. This did not appear as a problem or threat at first but as many more Zionists immigrated to Palestine with the intention of taking over the land to create a Jewish state, fighting broke out with the Palestinians, increasingly surging with Hitler’s rise to power during World War I. To this day, Palestinians have very minimal control of what mere land they have left, especially with Israel’s military forces using extremely oppressive methods.…

    Ella Habiba Shohat

    In this article, Ella Habiba Shohat, discusses the domination of European Jews, the Ashkenazim, over the voices of the Arab Jews, the Sephardim. The Zionist master narrative portrays the idea that “Zionism ‘saved’ the Sephardim from the harsh rule of their Arab ‘captors,’” while modernizing and integrating them into their own European culture. (270). The Ashkenazi Israeli equates the Sephardi to the Arab, as uneducated and primitive, yet blame and view them as the “obstacle to peace” because of their supposed hatred of the Arab, creating an attitude portraying a colonial parallel operative. Shohat correlates the history of Zionism with that of the Palestinians and Sephardi, stating, “An essential feature of colonialism is the distortion and…

    Should Palestine Be an Independent Nation?

    Palestine, or is it Israel? Either way, it is a highly contested land between two major Semitic groups: the Arabs, and the Hebrews. From the late 19th century, and throughout the 20th century it has been the focal point of Arab nationalism and Jewish Zionism. Today, it has become the Jewish state of Israel with occupied Palestinian Territories called the West Bank, which lies on the West side of the Jordan River, and the Gaza Strip, which borders Israel and Egypt. But, should the Palestinians deserve a state of their own? This essay will investigate the Palestinian side of the argument, their Biblical and Quranic ties to the land, the State of Palestine should have been created under Jordanian Egyptian as well as Israeli occupation of the land, and finally Israel’s poor relations with Palestine and colonial occupation of the land has led to the formation of many radical groups.…

    Palestinian Suicide Bombers Research Paper

    Many of them felt that it would only be a short stay and they would soon be able to return home. Since then that idea has become grim and hopeless; many generations have grown up without so much as a symbolic hope that they might ever return home. For a short period in the 1977 Israel started a heavily subsidized “build-your-own home program for Palestinian refugees” (). The program was designed to provide housing for some ten thousand families which included a “plot of land and full infrastructure” (). This did not sit well with the PLO strategy and they became fearful that they would want to support peace and oppose violence. Unfortunately, for those some ten thousand families they were being forced from their homes yet again and back into refugee camps this time with even worse living conditions. Initially, they were living in tents eventually they were replaced with block structures and zinc roofs. They often do not have running water, electricity, and the winter floods are the worst washing in the open sewage. Now, according to the UN relief and works agency (UNRWA) there are over “3.9 million refugees in the camps and growing” (). Despite the increasing population the conditions of the camps continue to deteriorate. “We have no rights and no future. We have a lot of problems; we can't work freely, we cannot own a house, we cannot move around. We are treated as if we are not human,” said 20-year-old Samar, from Shatilla.…

    Edward Said States

    “States,” by Edward Said is an essay written by a Palestinian man with first-hand accounts of daily life in that region of the Middle-East. Said was renowned in the literary community as one of the most “distinguished literary critics and scholars...” Born in Jerusalem in 1935, Said, at the age of twelve, fled with his family to Cairo during the establishment of Israel as a Jewish state. In his essay, Said begins to discuss the state of the Palestinian people. The content of his essay is an explanation and an informative look on the Palestinian people, as well their situation and their identity. In our English Composition class, we have been challenged to look past the aesthetics of “States” and look not at just what Said says or tries to convey in his essay, but to look at what he does.…

    Ethnic Group Conflict

    Cultural clashes, global wars, international misunderstandings, and ethnic conflicts have been occurring for decades. As early as the 1940s, constant hostility within the Middle East has resulted in suffering to human rights, education, and family structure (Huntington, Fronk & Chadwick, 2001). Culture seems to be implicated as the major contributor to conflict. The increasing modernization is strongly intertwined in this process, as it challenges traditional ideas, conservative values, and educational obstacles. How and why ethnic group conflicts occur will be illustrated in this paper by comparing and examining two ethnic groups at war. The concept of conformity and its relations to the ethnic groups will be explained as well as the kinship between social perception and social cognition. In addition, the necessary social perceptions for the resolution of the conflict will be discussed.…
