Routledge - Bodies, Power and Resistance in the Middle East

This academic work by Routledge provides an in-depth examination of how power and security processes shape the lives of Palestinian women in the Occupied Palestinian Territories. Part of the War, Politics and Experience series, the book explores the specific ways occupation directs its influence to form women as subjects of power. By focusing on the daily-lived experiences of conflict, the text investigates how exercises of power aim to control and discipline women's bodies. It addresses the gap in current understanding by looking at how the exclusion of these personal experiences often hides the true operation of power. This book is a vital resource for those studying the intersection of gender, security, and political control in the Middle East.
