provides a fresh, gendered analysis of citizenship in Israel. Working from a
framework of Israel as a settler-colonial regime, this important, insightful
book presents historical and contemporary comparative approaches to the lives
and experiences of Ashkenazi, Mizrahi and Palestinian Arab women citizens. Nahla
Abdo shows that no solution to the problems of the region can be found without
changing existing racial and gender boundaries to citizenship.</SPAN></P>
