class interests do not simply dissolve without structural changes in the
social relations of production. It is our basic thesis that such changes
have occurred in the 1967 war.
If it is found that the new material conditions characteristic of
the post-1967 war are, in fact, giving rise to commonality of class in-
terest among a substantial number of Palestinian-Arab and Israeli-Jewish
producers, we then have a solid objective base for politicization in the
direction of cross-national proletarian alliance in the sense of class
unity.
It is on this basic thesis that the link between the practical pur-
pose of this research and the imperative of employing dialectical mater-
ialism as the method of investigation lies. This link derives from the
view that class locations are structurally determined by places in the
production process and by ideological-political relations in the social
formation at large.
Since this study involves merely the formation of a Palestinian work-
ing class and not class formation in general and the objective conditions
for proletarian, but not other class, alliance, it is only necessary to
identify the criteria for proletarian class locations, defining the boun-
daries of the working class.
C. Determination of Proletarian Class Locations: The Boundaries
of the Working Class
From an historical materialist perspective, identifying the boundar-
ies of social classes is crucial for interpreting the world and for chan-
ging it. Social classes are not mere analytical abstractions or empty
