A Gendered Palestinization of Identity

Zusatztext

In this powerful and timely work, Nadia Issam Harhash dismantles
 the limits of traditional philosophical canons in confronting injustice,
 especially as experienced by women and marginalized communities.
 Bridging feminist theories, Arab Eastern philosophy, and postcolonial
 critique, she offers a framework rooted in Standpoint Theory, Situated
 Knowledges , and Intersectionality to rethink identity, resistance, and
 justice .
 At the heart of the book lies the concept of palestinization¿a condition
 of identity under occupation that mirrors borderland existence,
 where language, bodies, and belonging are constantly politicized
 and threatened. Harhash challenges binary models of patriarchy
 versus matriarchy and introduces the idea of a humanness continuum,
 reconciling gender performativity with biological difference.
 Blending rigorous inquiry with deeply lived insight, A Gendered
 Palestinization of Identity is both a philosophical intervention and a
 personal testimony¿a radical reimagining of what it means to think,
 resist, and reclaim humanity under the weight of Colonial-Modernity.
