Specifically, how did prior individual or collective identities contribute to activists opting for nonviolent strategies in the post-Oslo period, and how effective were such identities in mobilizing others? This article examines how activists’ lived experiences with resistance in the first Intifada influenced their decisions regarding tactics and strategy in the second Intifada. It also discusses the limitations of using memory for mobilization in the face of new challenges, arguing that nostalgia for past eras can be a double-edged sword in motivating participation in later attempts at nonviolent struggle. The study is based on interviews with activists in the West Bank conducted by the author during the second Intifada. date: 2013-07-01 date_type: published publisher: Fondazione Centro di Documentazione Ebraica Contemporanea CDEC official_url: https://doi.org/10.48248/issn.2037-741X/764 oa_status: green full_text_type: pub language: eng primo: open primo_central: open_green verified: verified_manual elements_id: 1842816 doi: 10.48248/issn.2037-741X/764 lyricists_name: Norman, Julie lyricists_id: JNORM98 actors_name: Barczynska, Patrycja actors_id: PBARC91 actors_role: owner full_text_status: public publication: Quest: Issues in Contemporary Jewish History. volume: 5 citation: Norman, J; (2013) Memory and Mobilization: Identity, Narrative and Nonviolent Resistance in the Palestinian Intifadas.
