Summary
Amal Jamal’s term, in the literature survey in Chapter 5 of Stateless Citizenship (2013), for the citizenship a “nationalizing state” designs for indigenous national minorities: citizenship “devoid of substantive cultural, economic and political meaning” (Jamal 2007, 473, as quoted, PDF p.191).
Details
- Jamal holds the exclusion frameworks “feed off and promote one another in such a way that makes the treatment of any one of them in isolation ineffectual in comprehensively explaining majority-minority relations in Israel” (Jamal 2007, 489, as quoted, PDF p.192).
- The survey places it beside Oren Yiftachel’s “ghettoized citizenship”: Palestinian Arabs “officially part of [the] society, yet structurally they are isolated into enclaves and weakened by domination, exclusion, and disempowerment” (Yiftachel 2011, 135, as quoted, PDF p.191).
