Barriers to Love, Life, and Residency Rights: A Case Study on Kufr Aqab
The study examines the issues women in Palestine may experience in marriage with a life partner of her choice and having a family life. It addresses the physical barriers imposed by the Israeli occupation and ongoing apartheid policies, which prove to be most salient. It examines the ways in which this socio-political environment may ultimately affect a woman’s freedom to choose a spouse.
