Book talk with Adam Haniegh, Robert Knox, and Rafeef Ziadah about their new book "Resisting Erasure; Capital, Imperialism, and Race in Palestine"
About Resistin Erasure from Verso:
A materialist analysis of the links between global capitalism, energy politics, and racial oppression in Palestine
Why has Palestine become a defining fault line of contemporary politics?
Challenging mainstream narratives that reduce Palestine to ancient hatreds, humanitarian tragedy, or legal abstractions, Resisting Erasure places Israeli settler-colonialism within the broader historical arc of imperialism, race, and fossil capitalism in the Middle East.
Resisting Erasure is a succinct and far-reaching critique of the socio-economic and political forces that sustain the Israeli settler-colonial project. An essential introduction for anyone looking to understand what Palestine reveals about the world – and what it demands of us today.
