On the eve of its fifth decade, the Israeli occupation in the Palestinian territories can no longer be considered a temporary aberration. Israel's control over Palestinian life, society, space and land has become firmly entrenched while acquiring more sophisticated and enduring forms. The Chronology of the Occupation was put together by Ariel Handel and will appear as part of the forthcoming book The Power of Inclusive Exclusion: Anatomy of Israeli Rule in the Occupied Palestinian Territories edited by Adi Ophir, Michal Givoni, and Sari Hanafi. The book can be preordered here.
