Description
Unfree in Palestine reveals the intricate web of bureaucracy used by Israel to restrict Palestinian movement and access to basic services. Based on extensive fieldwork and first-hand accounts, the authors chronicle how identity documents have been used as a means of coercion, extortion, and humiliation. Millions of Palestinians have been denationalized through census, population registration, blacklisting, and discriminatory legal frameworks, resulting in severe restrictions on their livelihoods and freedom of movement. This book sheds light on the devastating impact of these policies and calls for international justice and inclusive security in place of discrimination and division. Through a masterful exposé, Unfree in Palestine exposes the inner workings of Israel's apartheid policies, highlighting the urgent need for change and accountability.
