Abstract

The data and considerations in this article were collected and analyzed throughout a fieldwork research in Beit Sahour (West Bank), which aimed at studying the working and living conditions of olive-wood craftsmen. The present paper intends to broaden that analysis and draw the complex frame that operates onto the Palestinian population both socially and economically. Processes of inclusion and exclusion integrate each other rather than simply being opposed: within such a frame, Israeli policies are shaped to exercise control over the territory through strategies of spatio-cide (Hanafi) and over the population through the discipline of mobility as well as through the imposition of a regime of discrimination within the local communities.
