SWP-Informationsservices
Jürgen Rogalski, 18.06.2021

Der SWP-WebMonitor Nahost/Nordafrika ist ein unentgeltliches, kompaktes Informations-
produkt mit ausgewählten Hinweisen auf aktuelle Stellungnahmen, Dokumente und Analy-
sen zu allen (außen-) politisch relevanten Fragen und Entwicklungen der Region. Bei allen
Titeln gibt es einen Link, meistens direkt zum Volltext. Grundlage der Erstellung ist ein über-
wiegend festgelegtes Set an Quellen: Webseiten, Blogs, Zeitschriften etc. Der Auswahl-Fokus
liegt neben Dokumenten auf wissenschaftlichen bzw. wissenschaftlich basierten Beiträgen.
Neben Titeln mit konkretem Länder- bzw. Regionalbezug werden auch solche berücksichtigt,
deren Thematik relevant ist für die Region. Der WebMonitor wird i.d.R. ein- bis zweimal wö-
chentlich erstellt, nicht aber bei Abwesenheit des Bearbeiters.

Der nächste WebMonitor kommt „urlaubsbedingt“ erst wieder nach dem 29.06.2021.

The Abu Hameds of Mulabbis: an oral history of a Palestinian village depopulated in the Late Otto-
man period
Roy Marom
"Mulabbis was the first Arab village whose lands were acquired by Jews for settlement purposes
(1878), and is counted among the earliest villages to be fully depopulated due to Zionist settlement
during the Late Ottoman period. ... By adopting oral history as its socio-cultural prism, this paper
identifies the residents of the village, descendants of Abu Hamed al-Masri, and explores their histor-
ical narratives as recounted by elders of the family within the context of settler colonialism in Pal-
estine. ..."

In this context of limited information, we found that rumours – widely considered to be uncertain
truths – contributed to shaping participants’ understanding of the UNHCR’s decisions on the provi-
sion of aid and resettlement. ..."
