English Abstract
Far away from the romantic discourse in depicting the holiness of life in the Old City of Jerusalem, this research investigates the reality of living through the eyes of women suffering from inadequate housing conditions.
This research also tracks women’s coping strategies, survival and resistance methods in a colonial context. Moreover, it attempts to understand the social, familial and household arrangements that emerge in everyday life without assuming that familial collaboration applies to all Jerusalemite families subjected to cruel colonial housing policies that aim at erasing their presence.
Therefore, this research examines the kinds of conflict or tension that arises in the household and the ways through which it is being tackled under the colonial technique of housing deprivation.
