Battle for the Campuses
Steven Salaita, Uncivil Rites: Palestine and the Limits of Academic Freedom (Chicago: Haymarket Books, 2015)
After Oslo, a paradigm shift? Redefining 'peoples', sovereignty and justice in Israel-Palestine
Since the Oslo Accords were signed in the mid-1990s, conflict resolution regarding the Arab-Israeli conflict has been guided by two conjoined premises regarding: (1) the identity and right to self-determination of the two ‘peoples’ involved, Jewish and Palestinian-Arab; and (2) Israel’s sovereignty, or lack of it, in different portions of Mandate Palestine. Although these twin premises are now treated as givens, in tandem they have paradoxically …

The Secular Solution: Debating Israel–Palestine
Responding to Peled, Tilley details the entrenchment—political, economic, ideological—of the Israeli settlement grid, to insist that the two-state solution is dead. A single de-confessionalized democracy as the only feasible option, in face of a morally and socially unsustainable status quo
The One-State Solution: A Breakthrough for Peace in the Israeli-Palestinian Deadlock
"A clear, trenchant book on a topic of enormous importance... Overall this is a courageous plunge into boiling waters. If it helps propel forward a debate that has hardly begun in this country it will have performed a signal scholarly and political function." —Tony Judt, New York University ". . . a pioneering text. . . . [A]s such it will take pride of place in a brewing debate." —Gary Sussman, Tel Aviv University The One-State Solution demonstr…
New Help or New Hegemony? The Transnational Indigenous Peoples' Movement and 'Being Indian' in El Salvador
The transnational indigenous peoples' movement (TIPM) can convey important political leverage to local indigenous movements. Yet this study exposes a more problematic impact: the political authority gained by funding organisations who interpolate TIPM norms into new discourses regarding indigeneity, and deploy that discourse in local ethnic contests. In El Salvador the TIPM has encouraged the state to recognise the indigenous communities and has …
Indians, the Military and the Rebellion of 1932 in El Salvador
This study challenges the widely held belief that the peasant rebellion of 1932, and the massive military response to it, marked the demise of Indian ethnic identity. Working from documents that have become available only recently, we demonstrate that the Indian population was not decimated by the military repression. The percentage of Indians in the population remained steady and in some regions even increased. We show that the bedrock of Indian…
The terms of the debate: Untangling language about ethnicity and ethnic movements
Theoretical debates on ethnicity suffer from a general confusion about the divergent meanings which academics ascribe to key terms. 'Primordialist' approaches include biological, psychological and cultural explanations, whose conflation tends to confuse proponents and critics alike. 'Instrumentalist' approaches conflate all ethnic movements within a profile of political opportunism, failing to recognize the varying degrees to which underlying soc…
