Bornstein/Crossing the Green Line
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page essay that examines Avram Bornstein's fascinating ethnography Crossing the Green Line Between the West Bank and Israel gives the reader considerably insight into the daily lives of Palestinians who are trying to survive in the Israeli-occupied West Bank. By exploring their working lives--those who migrate each day into Israel "crossing the green line" and also those who work in the West Bank-- Bornstein demonstrates the validity of his principal conclusion, which is that the "green line' is not about religious orientation, but rather about economic power and the ability of the dominate state to maintain and subordinate a cheap labor force. No additional sources cited.
