Full Description
The Israelization of Jerusalem's Old City, 1967-1987 examines the transformation of the Old City of Jerusalem over the two decades following the Six-Day War, exploring its development from historical, cultural, and geographical perspectives. During this period, the Old City underwent major transformations, including the introduction of systematic planning, the creation of a master plan, the demolition of the Muslim Mughrabi neighborhood, and the establishment of the Western Wall plaza. The Jewish Quarter was rebuilt, a national park was planned around the city walls, and museums and heritage sites were developed. Additionally, the infrastructure of the Old City was restored. The book critically analyzes the changes in this area after 1967, when East Jerusalem came under Israeli control for the first time. Rather than offering a chronological account of events, the book provides a selective exploration of key issues related to the area's design, structured around several core themes: Israeli engagement with the past, particularly through archaeological research and the development of historical sites; Jerusalem's status as a sacred Jewish space, with a focus on the growing significance of the Western Wall and its symbolic connection to Haram al-Sharif, Islam's third holiest site; and the planning and development of the Old City, with particular attention to efforts to preserve its unique character.
