Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Focusing on the interplay between technology and colonial politics, the author offers a fresh perspective on the rise of Zionism and the challenges faced by Arab resistance in Mandate Palestine. The book argues that Zionism's success was driven by its 'technocapitalist underpinnings,' which played a crucial role in the establishment of Israel and the dispossession of Palestinians. This insightful study is essential for understanding the complexities of state-building in Palestine, as well as broader themes in global politics, technology, and imperialism.
