This is an illustrated account of the urban
and rural development of Jerusalem from
the early 19th century when Ottoman
Jerusalem was encompassed by its sixteenth
century walls, and was divided into quarters
and courtyard units of its various religious
and ethnic groupings, to the end of the
Mandate period in the mid 20th century. The
seeds of the current situation in Jerusalem
were sown at that time. It traces the city's
interaction with its rural hinterland until the
establishment of the State of Israel in 1948
when Jerusalem was divided into two--the
Jewish quarter of the Old City and some
Jewish neighborhoods and villages were
occupied by Arabs, while Jews occupied a
number of Arab neighborhoods and villages.
The book reconstructs and analyzes processes of establishing a variety of new types of Arab Muslim and Christian, Jewish and European Christian neighborhoods--built
as community housing, extended family neighborhoods, commercial neighborhoods,
and laborers' and garden suburbs. It covers
the construction of institutional complexes,
the introduction of significant changes in
Jerusalem's administration, the creation of
new planning frameworks, the planning of
new settlements around the city, the concentration of large tracts of agricultural land by Jerusalem's Arab effendis, and the development of the Arab and Jewish villages in the rural hinterland.
