Podcasts about toufoul abou hodeib

Denne episoden er et opptak fra en PalKveld i Oslo 31/10 om palestinsk motstandskamp, med professor Toufoul Abou-Hodeib!  Toufoul Abou-Hodeib er professor i historie ved Universitetet i Oslo, og forsker på Midtøstens moderne og samtidshistorie. Hun har publisert om Libanons og Palestinas historie, og skriver nå en bok om mobiliseringen av palestinsk kulturarv som motstand i Israel, Palestina, Jordan og Libanon. Abou-Hodeib starter med en innledning om historien, helt fra tiden da Palestina var under britisk mandatområde, tar oss gjennom kvinnenes rolle i motstandsbevegelsen, og kommer inn på grupper som PLO, Hamas og lignende. Til slutt svarer Abou-Hodeib på spørsmål fra salen.

Toufoul Abou-Hodeib‘s A Taste for Home: The Modern Middle Class in Ottoman Beirut (Stanford University Press, 2017) is a welcome addition to the scholarship on the urban history of Beirut precisely because it exceeds the disciplinary boundaries of urban history: A Taste for Home tells the story of late Ottoman Beirut through the middle class and their sense of self. Abou-Hodeib uses domesticity as a category of analysis to look at how the middle class functioned and what it aspired to be in the midst of the late Ottoman period. However, the book also succeeds wildly because it treats a local context within the global setting, taking seriously the intersecting themes of global capitalism and consumer culture, themes of domesticity and taste. Over the course of the book, leisure and urban development are also shown to be key elements in the development of the middle class, defining the city for generations to come. A Taste for Home will be critical for conversations for many years to come on class, the economy, the city, and the home in the study of the Middle East and the Ottoman Empire.
