Rezensionen
"Rigorous, humane, and brave. This 'history of the present' illuminates Palestinian resistance in prison in both everyday and more confrontational forms, and how prison resistance has related to the national movement over time. This volume is invaluable especially because it asks us to listen to former Palestinian prisoners themselves. It is an important and powerful read for journalists, policy makers, activists, students, and scholars concerned with Palestinians living under military occupation and (beyond Palestine) with ways of living and struggling in prison." - Amahl Bishara, Tufts University

"In situating first-hand prisoner accounts alongside historical analysis, Norman affirms the crucial role the Palestinian Prisoner movement assume within the broad spectrum of Palestinian resistance. This detailed and engaging analysis is an important and timely contribution to the broader field of political resistance to incarceration." - Brendan Browne, Trinity College Dublin

"Julie Norman's outstanding study uses testimony from Palestinian political prisoners themselves to explore the "counterorder" they construct within Israeli prisons and how this is linked to the broader dynamics of the nationalist movement. It is at once both sensitive and insightful, with much to offer scholars of Palestinian politics, prison activism, and popular mobilization." - Rex Brynen, McGill University

"Using concepts from the literature on social movement and nonviolent resistance, Julie Norman, in superb narrative fashion, explores the relationship between the prisoners' movement and the Palestinian national movement. Tracing changes in the prisons-and the prisoners' efforts-over time, Norman captures the human agency of Palestinians caught in the crossfires of the broader Israeli-Palestinian conflict." - Maia Carter Hallward, Kennesaw State University

"In fascinating detail, Julie Norman explores the evolution of the Palestinian prisoner movement. Collective resistance, hunger-strikes, education, and mobilisation beyond the prisons all speak to the central role of the prisons in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. This book is a must read for those who care about the Middle East and political imprisonment in general. An impressive achievement." - Kieran McEvoy, Queens University Belfast
