Ghandour A discourse on domination in mandate Palestine:imperialism, property and insurgency New York Routledge 2009 xi,197p.;24 cm 24 cm Indeks : P.192-197 P.175-191 British discourse during the Mandate, with its unremitting convergence on the problematic 'native question', and which rested on racial and cultural theories and presumptions, as well as on certain givens drawn from the British class system, has been taken for granted by historians. The validity of cultural representations as pronounced within official correspondence and colonial laws and regulations, as well as within the private papers of colonial officials, survives more or less intact. There are features of colonialism additional to economic and political power, which are glaring yet have escaped examination, which carried cultural weight and had cultural implications and which negatively transformed native society. 1.
