Overview
Encountering Palestine: Un/making Spaces of Colonial
Violence , edited by Mark Griffiths and Mikko Joronen, sits at
the intersection of cultural and political geographies and offers
innovative reflections on power, colonialism, and anti-colonialism
in contemporary Palestine and Israel. Organized around the theme of
encountering and focusing on the ways violence and struggle are
un/made in the encounter between the colonizer and colonized, the
essays focus on power relations as they manifest in cultural
practices and everyday lives in anti/colonial Palestine. Covering
numerous sites in Gaza, the West Bank, East Jerusalem, and Israel,
Encountering Palestine addresses a range of empirical
topics-from marriage and queer aesthetics to policing, demolition,
armament failure, and violence. The contributors utilize diverse
theoretical frameworks, such as hyperreality, settler capitalism,
intimate biopolitics, and politics of vulnerability, to help us
better understand the cultural making and unmaking of colonial and
anti-colonial space in Palestine. Encountering Palestine
asks us to rethink how colonialism and power operate in Palestine,
the ways Palestinians struggle, and the lifeways that constantly
encounter, un/make, and counter the spaces of colonial violence.
