Against the Wall: Anarchist Mobilization in the Israeli–Palestinian Conflict
In: Peace & change: PC ; a journal of peace research, Band 35, Heft 3, S. 412-433
Abstract
Anarchists Against the Wall is an Israeli action group supporting the popular Palestinian struggle against segregation and land confiscation in the West Bank. Incorporating participant observation and recent theories of social movements and anarchism, this article offers a thick cultural account of the group's mobilization dynamics, and assesses the achievements and limitations of the joint struggle. Three dimensions—direct action, bi‐nationalism, and leadership—highlight the significance of anarchist practices and discourses to an informed assessment of the group's politics of nonviolent resistance. The effectiveness of the campaign is then examined, calling attention to the distinction among immediate, medium‐term, and revolutionary goals.
