High-Risk Activism and Popular Struggle Against the Israeli Occupation of the West Bank

High-Risk Activism and Popular Struggle Against the Israeli Occupation of the West Bank

Speaker: Joel Beinin , Stanford University Chair: John Chalcraft, LSE Since 2002, local Palestinian popular committees have led a grass roots struggle against the separation barrier Israel has constructed, mostly on Palestinian land inside the West Bank. Israelis and internationals have joined this social movement. Using Doug McAdam’s conception of “high-risk activism” (derived from his study of the Mississippi Freedom Summer Project of 1964) Joel Beinin explores the history of the struggle and the motivations of Israelis for participating in it. Recorded on 4 November 2014. This seminar forms part of the 'Social Movements and Popular Mobilisation in the MENA Research Theme'.
