The barrier and the origins of Israel's separation policies

This thesis examines Israel's current security strategy of separation by using a barrier and places it in the context of historical policies that supported separation of Jews and Arabs. Consideration will be given to the rise of Hebrew labour after the Second Aliyah to Palestine due to the failure of Marxist Zionism and the limited Zionist awareness and understanding of Arab nationalism and its unexpected rise. These factors contributed to the Yishuv's establishment of distinctive structures of self-government, which could be seen in some regard as the predecessor to Israel's separation policies.
