It reconstructs neglected historical evidence by tracing Palestinian organizing in Egypt, Kuwait, and Jordan through corporate and sectoral efforts. The work analyzes the General Union of Palestine Students, Workers, Palestinian Women, Teachers, and the Palestine Red Crescent Society up to the mid-1980s, proposing an economic and political marginality framework.","Palestiniansin the Arab World  \nInstitution Building andthe Search for State  \nLaurie A.Brand  \nColumbia University PressNew York Guildford,Surrey  \nCopyright C1988 Columbia University PressAll rights reservedPrinted in the United States of America  \nLibrary of Congress Cataloging-in-Publication Data  \nBrand,Laurie A.  \nPalestinians in the Arab world.  \nBibliography:p.Includes index.  \n1.Palestinian Arabs—Politics and government.  \n2.Palestinian Arabs—Societies,etc.—History.  \n3.Palestinian Arabs—Egypt.4.Palestinian Arabs—Jordan.  \n5.Palestinian Arabs—Kuwait.I.Title.  \nDS113.6.B731988909'.04927569488-6101ISBN 0-231-06722-4  \nCasebound editions of Columbia University Press books are Smyth-sewn  \nand printed on permanent and durable acid-free paper  \nContents  \nTables and FiguresPreface  \nA Note on TransliterationAbbreviations  \nPART I.THE FRAMEWORK  \n1.Diaspora,State-Building,and Arab Domestic Politics  \n2.The Long Road Back:The Evolution of aPalestinian Entity  \nPART II.THE CASE STUDIES  \nEgypt  \n3.The Powerful Patron  \n4.GUPS:The Political Training Ground  \n5.The Search for Community:The GUPW,GUPWom,GUPT,and PRCS  \nKuwait  \n6.Opportunity in Exile  \n7.Workers and Women  \n8.Changing Organizational Horizons:The GUPS,GUPT,and PRCS  \nJordan  \n9.Identity Suppressed,Identity Denied  \n10.Addressing Community Need:The FTUJ,GUPWom,and PRCS  \n11.Mobilizing in Education  \nixxi  \n工  \n4164  \n85  \n107  \n126.  \n138  \n149  \n186  \n207  \nxi  \nviii CONTENTS  \nPART III.CONCLUSIONS  \n# 12.Diversity in Diaspora\n\nNotes  \n239  \n263  \nA Note on SourcesBibliographyIndex  \n265  \n279  \n# Tables and Figures\n\nTable 1.1:Palestinian Population Distribution9Table 1.2:Palestinian Organizing and RegionalDevelopments14Figure 2.1:Organizational Structure of the GUPS33Figure 2.2:Organizational Structure of the GUPW34Figure 2.3:Organizational Structure of the GUPWom35Figure 2.4:Organizational Structure of the GUPT36Table 3.1:Number of Palestinians in Egypt Classified (byGovernorate)According to Their AssistanceCategory as of 196647Table 6.1:Population of Kuwait,1957-1975113Table 6.2:Gender Ratio in the Palestinian/JordanianCommunity in Kuwait,1957-1970116Table 9.1:List of Refugee Camps—East Bank151Table 9.2:List of Refugee Camps—West Bank152Table 9.3:Central Government Actual Expenditures(Jordan)156Table 9.4:Industrial Origin of Gross Domestic Product(Jordan)158Table 9.5:Central Government Foreign Receipts ofUnrequited Transfers,1950-1968(Jordan)159Table 9.6:Founding of Charitable Associations on theWest Bank by District164Table 12.1:Marginality Framework225Table 12.2::Determinants of Political Marginality226Table 12.3:Determinants of Economic Marginality227Table 12.4:Determinants of State Coercive Force228  \n# Preface\n\nThe 1947-1949 dispersal of the Arabs of Palestine,and the subsequentinability of their leadership to establish a Palestinian state next to thenascent Jewish state,marked the defeat of the Palestinian nationalmovement.Most studies quickly skim over the 1949-1964 period,al-though a few mention the development of Fateh or the Arab Nation-alist Movement.In fact,however,the seeds of later PLO and Palestin-ian nationalist development were planted in these early years.Somebore fruit before the establishment of the PLO.Others,frustrated byhost regimes,were able to assert themselves only in the wake of theliberation organization's founding and subsequent expansion.  \nThis study seeks to assemble and analyze a part of the previouslyneglected record of Palestinian political development.It focuses on thePalestinian communities in three Arab host states—Egypt,Kuwait,andJordan—and within each examines the attempts by Palestinians to or-ganize along corporate/sectoral lines.The emergence and differentialdevelopment of the General Union of Palestine Students,the GeneralUnion of Palestine Workers,the General Union of Palestinian Women,the General Union of Palestinian Teachers,and the Palestine Red Cres-cent Society are discussed in the context of the three host soci","cbCaikMmDonlr0al","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaikMmDonlr0al","pdf",18035417,2,1,305,"English","en",105,"# Preface\n# A Note on Transliteration\n# Abbreviations\n# Part I.
