Notes (Chapter 9)

  1. As compared to results from ISSP, the International Social Survey Programme.
  2. The ";fear factor" is especially pronounced among secular men in Gaza. In Gaza 35% of secular men versus only 2% of religious activists state that they are concerned what people might do to a women who appears without a head scarf.
  3. Rema Hammami, personal communication.
  4. M. Shadid and R. Seltzer, "Political attitudes of Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza Strip", The Middle East Journal, vol.42 no.1, 1988.
  5. The results could also suggest that Israeli authorities have arrested a disproportionate number of Palestinian nationalists.
