Synopsis
A sophisticated and engaging ethnographic account of the Palestinian citizens of Israel, which investigates situations of friction, conflict and co-operation in a new town near Nazareth. This is a major contribution to our understanding of ethnic tensions between Jewish and Palestinian Israelis., This is an ethnographic account of the Palestinian citizens of Israel. Dr. Rabinowitz has written widely on the current political situation in Israel, and here investigates situations of friction, conflict and cooperation in the new town of Natzerat Illit just outside Nazareth. Using case studies and biographical accounts, the author provides a major contribution to our understanding of confrontation in this area, offers a powerful critique of reflexive anthropology, and original insights into ideas of ethnicity and identity, nationalism and liberalism., A sophisticated and engaging ethnographic account of the Palestinian citizens of Israel, and the first since the 1970s, Overlooking Nazareth examines specific situations of friction, conflict and co-operation in Natzerat Illit. This Israeli new town is built on formerly Palestinian land, just outside the biblical town of Nazareth, and has a population of 25,000 Jewish Israelis and 3,500 Palestinians. Dr Rabinowitz has written widely on the current political situation in Israel and has conducted extensive fieldwork in Galilee, and he describes his study as a guided walk along a border, a sketch of interfaces 'where the complex, often paradoxical aspects of the border situation are negotiated and acted out most vividly'. He highlights the extent to which anti-Palestinian sentiments for which the town is known actually reflect widespread views of most Israelis. This is a major contribution to our understanding of the confrontation between Israelis and Palestinians. It offers powerful critique of reflexive anthropology and offers fresh insights into notions of ethnicity and identity, nationalism and liberalism.

    Arrived sooner than predicted, packaged well and in decent condition. The cover and back cover are pretty beat up, but the inside is undamaged. Description was not totally accurate (for example, the page count was different--but it doesn't appear that any pages are missing), but for the price point, it can't be beat. I would definitely buy from this seller again.
