Abstract

[This chapter focuses on male carceral citizenships in Palestine and changing political practices, activism and mobilizations in-between Inside and Outside since 1967. Starting from the notion of historical generation, it shows the progressive construction of the prison branches of the parties and the structuring of the political and cultural counter-model of the Prisoners’ Movement, and a carceral democracy. The chapter deals with the effects of the Oslo Accords and of the second Intifada period on the weakening of the Prisoners’ Movement. From the failure of the 2004 hunger strike, the prison administration began to implement neoliberal managerial techniques, playing on individual emulation, on the one hand, and on divisions, on the other. The Shabas intelligence service gradually succeeded in interfering in the workings of carceral citizenships and in atomizing part of the prison culture developed in the 1980s. The chapter shows how the new prison management has striven to act on the subjectivities of political prisoners, moving from a control based solely on repression, characterizing previous periods, to provisions that also rely on the more productive dimension of power, by encouraging forms of adhesion: from subjectivation through violence to the will to form neoliberal subjectivities.]
