Gendered infrastructures.
My chapter in the edited volume Gendered Infrastructures: Space, Scale, Identity (West Virginia University Press, 2024) is available now.
Titled "Trains, Trees, and Terraces: Infrastructures of Setler Colonialism and Resistance in the Refaim Valley, Palestine-Israel," it examines how Israel uses infrastructure to restrict Palestinian social reproduction in al-Walaja and Battir, south of Jerusalem. It also takes Palestinian agricultural practices and social relationships as infrastructural resistance to Israeli settler colonialism.
I am interested in feminist approaches to critical infrastructure studies that take seriously the everyday lived experiences of people and ecosystems who interact with infrastructural assemblages big and small.
