Palestine Ltd.: Neoliberalism and Nationalism in the Occupied Territory

Book by Toufic Haddad critically examines the post-Oslo Palestinian development model, arguing that neoliberal economic policies promoted by international donors have served to entrench the occupation rather than build the foundations for Palestinian independence. Haddad traces how Palestinian Authority governance was shaped by World Bank and donor agendas that prioritized market liberalization and security coordination with Israel over national liberation. Recommended for researchers in political economy and development studies examining the post-Oslo Palestinian development model, the role of the World Bank in shaping Palestinian governance, and the contradictions of neoliberal state-building under occupation.
