Wendy Pearlman shows that much of the answer lies inside movements themselves. Nonviolent protest requires coordination and restraint, which only a cohesive movement can provide. When, by contrast, a movement is fragmented, factional competition generates new incentives for violence and authority structures are too weak to constrain escalation. Pearlman reveals these patterns across one hundred years in the Palestinian national movement, with comparisons to South Africa and Northern Ireland. To those who ask why there is no Palestinian Gandhi, Pearlman demonstrates that nonviolence is not simply a matter of leadership. Nor is violence attributable only to religion, emotions or stark instrumentality. Instead, a movement's organizational structure mediates the strategies that it employs. By taking readers on a journey from civil disobedience to suicide bombings, this book offers fresh insight into the dynamics of conflict and mobilization. 517 3 $aViolence, Nonviolence, & the Palestinian National Movement 606 $aArab-Israeli conflict 606 $aNationalism$zPalestine$xHistory 606 $aViolence$zPalestine$xHistory 606 $aNationalism 606 $aNonviolence 607 $aPalestine$xHistory$xAutonomy and independence movements 615 0$aArab-Israeli conflict. 615 0$aNationalism$xHistory. 615 0$aViolence$xHistory. 615 0$aNationalism. 615 0$aNonviolence. 676 $a956.9504 700 $aPearlman$b Wendy$0783335 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910813349003321 996 $aViolence, nonviolence, and the Palestinian national movement$94080692 997 $aUNINA
