About the book
This anthropological work draws on recent theories about racial politics, colonialism, and urban spatial dynamics to examine social segregation in Jerusalem. The author examines the physical manifestations--walls, checkpoints, and separate road networks-- as well as myths, memorials, and monuments in the "Jerusalem of Israel's imagination," national boundaries, gendered politics of residential life, terrorism, policing, and the demolishing of homes and buildings.
