Abstract
In his book, Lordship and Liberation in Palestine-Israel, Dr. Muhannad Ayyash theorizes structures of violence that lie at the root of the Palestinian struggle for liberation and Israeli settler colonialism. Dr. Ayyash’s aim is not to theorize for the sake of theory but to theorize and develop conceptual tools that are useful for scholars and scholar activists in understanding the relationship between people and land, land and life, oppression and resistance, and settler colonialism and decolonial sovereignties. This manuscript is an edited version of an interview between Dr. Muhannad Ayyash and Dr. Desmond Goss, in which they discuss the premise of the book, the significance and contradictions of the current ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian resistance forces, the ongoing struggle for the liberation of Palestine, and the need for courage in a moment of multiple crises and heightened contradictions.
