Description: 179 p. : il., fot., mapas ; 22 cmISBN: 800316201Subject(s): Urbanismo | Zona urbana | Relaciones árabe-israelíes | JerusalénAbstract: One of the most vexing problems in determining the future of Jerusalem is the presence of a matrix of control that Israel has laid over East Jerusalem, including Muslim and Christian Quarters of Jerusalem’s Old City. Since the occupation of the West Bank in 1967, Israeli governments have endeavoured steadily and unceasingly to alter the Arab character of East Jerusalem by fostering a critical Jewish mass – territorial as well as demographic – that creates a new geopolitical reality dominated by Israel. That process, called explicitly by the Israeli right as "Judaization”, is aimed at assuming control of the East Jerusalem by "deArabizing" it at the expense of its Palestinian population and Arab heritage.| Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
