Description:Modern urban spaces are, by definition, mixed. In many ways, their success lies in the richness of their ethnic variety and ongoing exchange of cultural traits and ideas, but this mixture is not necessarily harmonious. Focusing not on capital cities or the holy sites which are so heavily associated with Middle Eastern Urban space, but on Palestinian-Israeli mixed towns, this book theorizes the relationship between modernity, the concept of the nation and the dynamics which engender and characterize the growth of urban spaces. In these mixed towns, Arabs and Jews have been interacting for decades in workplaces, residential areas, commerce, culture and politics. A new generation of Israeli, Palestinian and other scholars come together to question whether these towns are perceived as utopian or dystopian and whether they are best portrayed as divided, polarized, contested or colonial cities.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
