Description
Résumé:In July 2017 — while preparing this article for publication — a two-week standoff occurred between Palestinian worshippers in Jerusalem and the Israeli government, which sought to impose new restrictions on Palestinian Muslim access to the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Thus, this article has two parts. The initial version, providing a settler-colonial reading of the conflict over Jerusalem utilising three concepts: the ‘frontier', ‘othering' in Orientalism, and a Foucauldian application of the creation of docile subjects through an intrusive surveillance structure. The second part, the epilogue, highlights the standoff and concludes that the Palestinian self-mobilisation in Jerusalem demonstrated an ability to break loose from the intense Israeli settler-colonial dynamics.
