This special issue presents essays on the topic of settler colonialism in Palestine, covering conceptual and empirical, historical and contemporary, as well as literary, legal and political aspects of the debate. All essays examine the validity and applicability of the settler colonial paradigm to the context of Palestine (West Bank, Gaza Strip, East Jerusalem, and the 1948 territories). They approach this paradigm as a powerful means to challenge and disarticulate established historiographies and narratives, and, as such, engage with settler colonialism as a structure (Wolfe 1999, 2006), but also with the various forms of resistance and decolonization that aim at undoing this structure.
