Abstract

Abstract This essay introduces an imperial approach to the study of Palestine/Israel in general and to the understanding of the 7 October War in particular as an alternative to the colonial perspective. By focusing on how local dynamics have been embedded in the constantly evolving imperial matrix, this perspective aids in moving beyond the oversimplified and binary viewpoints often found in popular political language, which, while based on academic discourse, tends to overlook its nuanced complexities. Such an imperial approach, I argue, allows a more thorough understanding of local dynamics, contextualized within a broader historical and analytical framework, which is crucial for a more comprehensive explanation of the current war.
