NATIONALISM AND THE HARAM AL-SHARIF TEMPLE MOUN...

This book examines the manner in which the Haram al-Sharif Temple Mount has been appropriated
by both Palestinians and Israelis as a nationalist symbol legitimizing respective claims to the
land. From the late-nineteenth century onward  the site's significance became reconfigured
within the context of modern nationalist discourses  yet  despite the originally secular nature
of Palestinian and Israeli nationalisms  the holy site's importance to Islam and Judaism
respectively has gradually altered the character of both in a manner blurring the line between
religious and national identities.
