Palestine, Israel, and the Politics of Popular Culture
“Rebecca L. Stein and Ted Swedenburg’s volumePalestine, Israel, and the Politics of Popular Culturemakes an invaluable contribution to the growing field of Middle Eastern cultural studies. Refusing essentialist understandings of culture, the editors and authors also transcend traditional Marxist paradigms. The volume insightfully illuminates the often marginalized issue of the politics of culture within the contested terrain of Palestine and Israel.”—Ella Shohat, Professor of Middle Eastern Studies and Cultural Studies, New York University
