A Second Nakba?
In an interview, Nur Arafeh discusses the ramifications of the conflict in Gaza and what it means for Palestinians.
By Ghida Tayara
Published on Oct 18, 2023
Nur Arafeh is a fellow at the Malcolm H. Kerr Carnegie Middle East Center, where her work focuses on the political economy of the Middle East and North Africa, business-state relations, peacebuilding strategies, the development-security nexus, and the Palestinian-Israeli conflict. Prior to her doctoral studies, Arafeh served as the policy fellow of Al-Shabaka, the Palestinian Policy Network, where she conducted research on the political economy of the occupied Palestinian territories. Diwan interviewed Arafeh early this week to get her perspective on the broader Palestinian and regional repercussions of the ongoing war in Gaza.
