A compelling account . . . and a reminder that a true peace can be built only on justice.-Desmond M. Tutu Tending ones fields, visiting a relative, going to the hospital: for ordinary Palestinians, such activities require negotiating permits and passes, curfews and closures, sterile roads and seam zones-bureaucratic hurdles ultimately as deadly as outright military incursion. In Palestine Inside Out, Saree Makdisi draws on eye-opening statistics, academic histories, UN reports, and contemporary journalism to reveal how the peace process institutionalized Palestinians loss of control over their inner and outer lives-and argues powerfully and convincingly for a one-state solution. 33 photographs and 12 maps
