With the termination of 400 years of Ottoman rule, residents of Palestine and Greater Syria more broadly sought the national self-determination they were promised by their new European overlords. And though Palestinians&#8217; confrontation with Zionism and British colonialism was critical in isolating Palestine and its inhabitants regionally, the presentation makes clear that the pursuit of Palestinian self-determination in this period was inextricable from the larger call for a united Arab kingdom that included Palestine. The presentation also shows that the ultimate failure of the Palestinian nationalist movement to secure a nation-state in the leadup to 1948 was a result, on the one hand, of concerted British and Zionist efforts to subvert it, and, on the other, of elite Palestinian leaders\u2019 attempts to curry favor with British colonial authorities\u2014a significant factor in the emergence of the first popular Palestinian uprising in 1936 and in the subsequent British suppression of political Palestinian mobilization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Recommended readings:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rashid Khalidi,&nbsp;<em>Palestinian Identity: The Construction of Modern National Consciousness&nbsp;<\/em>(New York: Columbia University Press, 1997) (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.fulcrum.org\/concern\/monographs\/ks65hc256\">https:\/\/www.fulcrum.org\/concern\/monographs\/ks65hc256<\/a>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>James Jankowski and Israel Gershoni, eds.,\u00a0<em>Rethinking Nationalism in the Arab Middle East<\/em>\u00a0(New York: Columbia University Press, 1997)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Dr. Nadim Bawalsa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Nadim Bawalsa is a historian of modern Palestine and the author of\u00a0<em>Transnational Palestine: Migration and the Right of Return before 1948<\/em>\u00a0(Stanford University Press, 2022), winner of both the 2023 Palestine Book Award and the 2023 Nikki Keddie Book Award.
