Negotiating representation: The ambivalence of Palestinian politics in Israeli media and cultural industries

这项研究将调查巴勒斯坦媒体和文化从业者如何通过关注以色列的广播电视、电影和剧院，在民族解放斗争中影响政治话语。一些人认为，巴勒斯坦人参与定居者国家媒体和文化倡议对于破坏种族主义表达是必要的。其他人认为，它导致被霸权标准吸收，充其量将殖民臣民复制为异国情调。该项目将通过对以色列领域的巴勒斯坦从业人员的采访和观察以及对象征性物品的分析来探索这种复杂性，以阅读这些互动如何在种族主义的再现和争辩中表现出来。通过描绘一幅细致入微的、包罗万象的图景，展示符号意义被谈判、传播和消费的方式，该项目旨在填补巴勒斯坦研究、文化和媒体研究、批判种族理论、反殖民主义研究和土著研究之间的空白。绘制以色列巴勒斯坦公民阐明其历史和现实的可能性图，将成为正在进行的关于土著社会关系与定居者殖民国家之间关系的对话的一部分。

This research will investigate how Palestinian media and cultural practitioners influence political discourse vis-à-vis the national struggle for liberation, by focusing on Israeli broadcast television, cinema and theatre. Some view Palestinian involvement with settler-state media and cultural initiatives as necessary for disrupting racist representations. Others think it leads to absorption into hegemonic standards, and the reproduction of colonised subjects as exotict at best. The project will explore this complexity through interviews with, and observations of Palestinian practitioners in the Israeli sphere; and analysis of symbolic goods, to read how these interactions manifest in the reproduction and contestation of racialisation. By painting a nuanced, encompassing picture of the way symbolic meaning is negotiated, disseminated and consumed, the project aims to fill a gap at the intersection of Palestinian studies, cultural and media studies, critical race theory, anticolonial studies, and indigenous studies. Mapping the possibilities for Palestinian citizens of Israel to articulate their histories and realities will substantiate part of an ongoing conversation on the involvement of Indigenous socities with settler-colonial states.
