This doctoral research examines the colonial spatial and socialconfigurations of death in Occupied Palestine. The researchhas two key objectives: 1) to analyse the settler-colonialmobilisation of suspended death as an instrument that targetsPalestinian social and political life; and 2) to critically examineforms of Palestinian grassroots resistance to necropoliticalformations (e.g., in collective mourning rituals).My focus will begin with archival and legal research toreconstruct a historical account of British and Israeli practices ofdetaining dead Palestinian and Arab bodies as a tool for socialdivision. I will document the ways that detaining the dead hasbeen practiced by colonial forces in Palestine since 1945. I willthen deploy visual mapping, 3D modelling, and geolocationanalysis to examine clandestine sites - commonly known as"Cemeteries of Numbers" - where deceased Palestinian andArab bodies are still detained by the Israeli military. This part willconsist of ethnographic fieldwork informed by Palestiniangrassroots initiatives that seek to locate and retrieve thesebodies. My involvement will be conducted at a safe distance,comprising remote and field investigations into such sites and intheir geopolitical, spatial and social contexts.This conceptually and methodologically innovative project willcontribute to wider geographical debates on colonialism anddecolonising by producing a detailed, site-specific study thatinvestigates the wider phenomenon of colonial necropolitics, amode of governing whose prevalence has grown significantly inthe "postcolonial" world.

本博士研究考察了被占领的巴勒斯坦死亡的殖民空间和社会配置。这项研究有两个关键目标：1）分析定居者殖民地动员暂停死亡作为针对巴勒斯坦社会和政治生活的工具; 2）批判性地审查巴勒斯坦基层对死亡政治形成的抵抗形式（例如，我的重点将开始与档案和法律的研究，以重建英国和以色列的做法，扣留巴勒斯坦和阿拉伯人的尸体作为社会分裂的工具的历史帐户。我将记录下自1945年以来，巴勒斯坦殖民势力拘留死者的方式。然后，我将部署可视化绘图、3D建模和地理位置分析来检查秘密地点--通常被称为“数字墓地”--那里的巴勒斯坦和阿拉伯死者的尸体仍然被以色列军方扣留。这一部分将包括民族志实地考察，通过巴勒斯坦草根的主动行动来寻找和找回这些尸体。我的参与将在一个安全的距离内进行，包括对这些遗址及其地缘政治、空间和社会背景的远程和实地调查。这个概念和方法上创新的项目将通过产生一个详细的、针对具体地点的研究，调查更广泛的殖民墓地政治现象，一种在“后殖民”世界中盛行的治理模式。
