"Away from simplistic binaries and shallow dichotomies, this book provides an authentic view on a forgotten group, the Palestinians in Israel, that cannot be found elsewhere. By analyzing the Arabic spoken by the Palestinians in Israel, Professor Camelia Suleiman succeeded in providing us a rare glimpse into the existential world of a community that navigates between Israeli settler colonialism, Palestinian nationalism and the human desire for normality and life. A must read for anyone interested in the question of Israel/Palestine as well language and identity.-- ""Professor Ilan Papp�, University of Exeter"" Goes beyond a detailed analysis of the language issues, and provides a sensitive portrayal of a significant region of the Middle East, making clear the difficult and dangerous struggle between Israelis and Palestinians that underlies the language developments.'-- ""Bernard Spolsky, Professor Emeritus, Bar-Ilan University, Israel"" The Politics of Arabic in Israel: A Sociolinguistic Analysis is a highly accessible yet incredibly comprehensive title, and provides a wide-ranging, astute analysis of the institutional, scholarly, and symbolic life of Arabic in Israel.--Chantal Tetreault, Michigan State University ""Journal of Linguistic Anthropology, 2020"""
