A Gendered Palestinization of Identity: An Arab Philosophy and Colonial-Modernity Perspective

In this powerful and timely work, Nadia Issam Harhash dismantles the limits of traditional philosophical canons in confronting injustice, especially as experienced by women and marginalized communities. Bridging feminist theories, Arab Eastern philosophy, and postcolonial critique, she offers a framework rooted in Standpoint Theory, Situated Knowledges , and Intersectionality to rethink identity, resistance, and justice . At the heart of the book lies the concept of palestinization—a condition of identity under occupation that mirrors borderland existence, where language, bodies, and belonging are constantly politicized and threatened. Harhash challenges binary models of patriarchy versus matriarchy and introduces the idea of a humanness continuum, reconciling gender performativity with biological difference. Blending rigorous inquiry with deeply lived insight, A Gendered Palestinization of Identity is both a philosophical intervention and a personal testimony—a radical reimagining of what it means to think, resist, and reclaim humanity under the weight of Colonial-Modernity.
