商品簡介
First emerging in the 1920s, the Palestinian Arabic-language press played an increasingly influential role in shaping the development of the Palestinian National Movement until its peak in the Great Strike of April-October 1936, argues Kabha (history and communication, Open U. of Israel and Ben Gurion U., Israel). He examines the relationship between the press and Palestinian political consciousness by exploring the development of the press, its readership, the political forces operating at the time, and the influence of the press on public opinion among the main elite groups in Palestinian society.
