Contemporary Resistance formation in the West Bank:
Between Jenin’s Brigade and the Lion’s Den Eiad Ahmed Abu Zanit and Suleiman Basharat 11
This study aims to identify the patterns of change in contemporary resistance formation in the West Bank, focusing on «Jenin Brigade» and the «Lion’s Den». The study suggests that there are signs of transformation in Palestinian activism that have produced new patterns of resistance, influenced by the Palestinian environment, Israeli policies, and the success of such contemporary patterns influencing Palestinian activism. The study hypothesizes that Palestinian activism is undergoing a maturation phase, which inturn led to the maturation of Palestinian resistance that is strongly tied to ideological transcendence thought. The study concludes that there is a growth in resistance in the West Bank and an Israeli failure to subdue the new Palestinian identity.

Destructive Israeli Occupation Policies and the Environmental
Dilemma in Palestine Hussein Shakrani 25
This study explores the potentials of employing the Anthropocene concept which is derived from natural sciences in international relations and international law to address the Palestinian situation. It argues that Israel possesses political power, economic resources, and destructive military capabilities that allows it to exert dominance and marginalize the Palestinians. To ensure the success of its apartheid policies, Israel targets the foundations of Palestinian production, undermining Palestinian gains, and reinforcing its military presence on Palestinian territory. The study analyzes elements of subjugation and displacement under Israeli Anthropocene policies that are exerted on Palestinians. It also examines how Israeli policies receive support from Western countries to dismantle the Palestinian community, stripping them of their identity, isolating and displacing them.
Keywords: Anthropocene, Displacement, Environment, Israeli Occupation Authority, Palestinian Cause.

Arab Regimes and the Palestinian Cause: From the 1936 Revolt to
»Al-Aqsa Flood» Battle Misbah Al-Shibani 61
Following the announcement of Balfour Declaration (1917), the Zionist movement established a clear strategic plan to Judaize Palestine and build its settlement and imperial project in the Arab region through means of both hard and soft power, including political propaganda, deceitful tactics, and religious myths. To achieve its goals of securing Palestine and displacing its people, the Zionist movement allied with certain Arabic regimes both before and after the declaration of the »State of Israel.» Since the 1920s, various projects and initiatives have been proposed to facilitate the Zionist project in Palestine and eliminate all forms of resistance. These Arab regimes have campaigned to mobilize the Arab masses to accept settlement plans with the Zionist enemy and to peacefully coexist with it.
Keywords: Zionist Movement, Political Chronology, Arab Betrayal, Al-Aqsa Flood Battle.
Studies
Towards an Arab School in Political Science Mohammed S. Bashir 81
In its effort to adapt to the changes witnessed in the Arab world during what is known as the Arab Spring, Political science has developed new research mechanisms to describe and analyze such phenomena. The deep connection with the Arab environment has led for the reassessment of concepts with regards to their new meanings, and for approaches to be adapted to this unique context. The study thus seeks to highlight the necessity of establishing an Arab school of political science that addresses these concepts and develop approaches suited to the Arab context, avoiding inappropriate application of research tools that were developed in different environments that are no longer suitable for the distinct political, social, economic, and research characteristics of the Arab world.
