ABSTRACT

This chapter explores the articulation of the broken joints and examines Palestinian-constructed solutions that attempt to heal the joints. The Charter laid the foundation for the long process of linguistic construction of Palestinian rights, which evolved around three main principles: statehood in the West Bank and Gaza; self-determination; and the right of return. The chapter argues that the PLOs structure answered the needs of the Arab regimes more than the Palestinian questions. It dwells on the new avenues that became available to the Palestinian political institutions after the June 1967 war or al-naksa as Palestinians and Arabs. The chapter discusses Palestinian scenarios for solving the question of Palestine it may be useful to recap the main points made. It explains how an-Nakba became a touchstone in Palestinian spatial and temporal awareness. The chapter examines the organizational system of Palestinian discourse, which includes self, other, and context-interpretative conditions.
