This volume, containing chapters in French (some translated from Arabic) and others in English, is a collective work, diverse and dynamic, analyzing symbolic, discursive, archival, oral and archaeological data regarding the Palestinian social formation through time and space. Its authors, who include internationally recognized specialists as well as young scholars from the occupied territories, have in common their critique of established paradigms, based on a reading of data in the light of contemporary theoretical breakthroughs. The contributions were edited by Roger Heacock, professor of history at Birzeit University, author of Towards a New Tricontinental? Shifting Perspectives and Realities in the International System (Birzeit, Ibrahim Abu-Lughod Institute), of the series "Internationaliste en Palestine" and of "Ma zilna huna: nous sommes toujours là" (Confluences-Mediterranee).
