Abstract
The article deals with the Israel-Gaza conflict of 2014, in which the rights of Palestinian children and youth have been trampled on in many circumstances. Therefore the inquiry is about the possibility of adult education in the involved communities, in order to protect children from violence. The Palestinian thinker Edward Said, through his writings Orientalism and The Question of Palestine, tried to explain the historical reasons of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict according to a Marxist dialectical view. The occupation and repression of the Palestinans has been possible because of the deep hegemonic role that Zionist ideology played and still plays worldwide. A cultural and intellectual road-map is traced by many Jewish and Arab artists and scholars, leading to a more authentic view of the adversary’s reasons and identity, relieving itself off of false beliefs. Adult education in Palestine, of which some different experiences are described, should aim at developing peace and resistance by nonviolent thought and practices. The educational and cultural work, however, shouldn’t remain on an informal, abstract level, but should obtain a response by the institutional, political and diplomatic world.File | Size | Format | |
