This study reframes our understanding of the Palestinian and Zionist national movements, arguing that Palestinian and Hebrew pedagogy could only be truly understood through an analysis of the conscious or unconscious dialogue between them, by examining the way Arabs and Zionists thought, taught, and wrote about their past.
MoreLong description:
Educating Palestine, through the story of education and the teaching of history in Mandate Palestine, reframes our understanding of the Palestinian and Zionist national movements. It argues that Palestinian and Hebrew pedagogy could only be truly understood through an analysis of the conscious or unconscious dialogue between them. The conflict over Palestine, the study shows, shaped the way Arabs and Zionists thought, taught, and wrote about their past. British rule over Palestine promised the Jews a national home, but had no viable policy towards the Palestinians and established an education system that lacked a sustainable collective ethos. Nevertheless, Palestinian educators were able to produce a national pedagogy that knew how to work with the British and simultaneously promoted an ideology of progress and independence that challenged colonial rule.
Educating Palestine constitutes an important contribution not only to the field of history of education, but also to the history of the IsraeliPalestinian conflict. It is an impressive work of historical scholarship that deals with the underpinnings of a painful conflict in a novel and eye-opening way. This work is a worthy read for anyone interested in the region, and should receive considerable scholarly attention.
