To this end, we examine three proposals: (a) Palestinian economic initiative is caught in a colonial style confrontation with Israel; (b) International aid to Palestinians aggravates their dependency and subjugation; (c) Palestinian economic activity is dominated by a globalized rent seeking elite. |
