Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Abstract: This paper explores the multileveled and shifting ways in which the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip resist and accommodate Israeli occupation in their day-to-day lives, by describing the politics of one of the most unrepresented spaces of everyday life in Gaza, the beach. The aim of the study is to discuss reasons behind the production of increasingly polarized imaginaries of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and to clear space beyond these representations which tend to portray the Palestinians as passive victims, or confine Palestinian agency to that of militancy. Maintaining that these dichotomies are, in part, a result of the discursive poverty that limits expressions that can be articulated through dominant discourses on conflict, I argue that domains of everyday life in general and Gaza Beach in particular invite the possibility of epistemological Third Spaces, through which a more complex understanding of subaltern agency, and of the conditions of its possibility, can be achieved. Furthermore, I suggest that on Gaza Beach, these forms of subaltern agency are currently diagnostic of a regime of power in which Palestinian resistance is confined to the margins of political discourses, and that it is against this process of marginalization that the production of polarized representations must be understood. In the shrinking spaces of resistance available to the Palestinians, political subjectivities become increasingly hybrid as well as unrecognizable within dominating discourses on conflict
