- Title
Between al-Khader and Nabi Rubeen: Religious Pilgrimage and Palestinian Shared Worlds of Meanings.
- Authors
Shams, Alex
- Abstract
The article presents the al-Khader and Nabi Rubeen sites in Israel and West Bank as representations of past cosmopolitanism in which Muslims, Eastern Orthodox Christians and Jews have shared meanings through pilgrimages and festivities. It is asserted that inter-religious conflicts have risen because of the emergence of identity politics and adoption of liberal notions of cosmopolitanism. Several historical events which led to these conflicts are cited.
