Heroes and Martyrs of Palestine
«Review of the hardback: 'This eloquent, engaging, well-researched book ... is an essential volume in any collection on Palestinian politics and society.' Amahl Bishara, International Journal of Middle East Studies»
Many decades have passed since the Palestinian national movement began its political and military struggle. In that time, poignant memorials at massacre sites, a palimpsest of posters of young heroes and martyrs, sorrowful reminiscences about lost loved ones, and wistful images of young men and women who fought as guerrillas, have all flourished in Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon and in the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

«Review of the hardback: 'This eloquent, engaging, well-researched book ... is an essential volume in any collection on Palestinian politics and society.' Amahl Bishara, International Journal of Middle East Studies»
«Review of the hardback: '… this book is well worth the investment - or encouraging your institutional library to purchase. As media and academia persist in endlessly discussing the role of 'militants' in the contemporary Middle East, Khalili points to the active role of NGOs in the shaping of Palestinian national discourse and narrative.' al-Majdal Quarterly Magazine»
«Review of the hardback: 'Khalili is to be congratulated for her perception that commemorative practices would offer an illuminating path to reworking a history that combines tragedy and resistance in unusual measure. The skill with which she brings together wide-ranging archival research and live-in observation has produced an outstanding study that balances cool analysis with lively sympathy.' Rosemary Sayigh, Middle East Report»
