This study, however, provides an alternative framework for understanding the process of \"normalization\" in the life of Jewish residents. Considering a wider range of historical and structural factors in which the colonization of the West Bank developed it allows placing its origins and everyday reality into a wider perspective. The works collected consider the transformation of the landscape, the patterns of relationships shared by the region's residents, Palestinian and Jewish alike, and the lasting effects of Israel's settlement policy. Stressed in particular are such factors as urban planning, rising inequality and the retreat of the welfare state, and the changing political economy of industry and employment. In doing so, the authors collected here provide new insight into the integration and segregation processes that are an integral part of the broader historical trends shaping Israel\/Palestine.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51696375922976,"sku":"NEW0253024730","price":101.11,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/81EUGsdQExL.jpg?v=1779382078","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/normalizing-occupation-the-politics-of-everyday-life-in-the-west-bank-settlements-0253024730","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
