Description
The Palestinians: From Peasants to Revolutionaries by Rosemary Sayigh is a powerful account of the Palestinian people's history and struggle. Through extensive interviews with Palestinians in refugee camps, Sayigh provides a deeply moving story of how they came to be who they are today.
With an extensive new foreword by Noam Chomsky, this reissued edition brings the story up-to-date in the context of recent events, including the Hamas victory and the war in Lebanon. This book offers a fascinating historical document and essential insight into the situation in the contemporary Middle East.
Revealing the economic marginalisation, social and psychological effects of displacement, and political oppression faced by Palestinians, Sayigh's account continues to resonate today.
