Analysis reveals solidarity ecology in pro-Palestinian activism, highlighting diverse strategies and anti-imperialism goals.
Based on analysis of movement texts written and published by pro-Palestinian student organizations in Brazil, South Africa, Sweden, and the United States, this article offers a conceptualization of the recent global wave of Palestinian solidarity activism as a solidarity ecology , featuring a multitude of divergent yet interlocking conceptualizations and practices of solidarity, collectively operating towards a shared goal of anti-imperialism and Palestinian liberation. Such a solidarity ecology is conceptualized in Gramscian terms as linking students up with international actors and Palestinian leadership in a common, global counter-hegemonic bloc. Within such a solidarity ecology, however, students’ concrete practices and discourses of solidarity are constantly being re-articulated in relation to different and evolving contexts on local, national, and global scales.
