tion of proletarian class location in the production process (the economic
criteria), on the one hand, and the objective determination of proletarian
class location in the social division of labor (the structural criteria),
on the other.
What does it concretely mean that classes are determined principally
but not exclusively in the production process? The structural criteria of
the objective determination of class location is especially significant for
studying the formation of a Palestinian working class in Israel. Specifi-
cally in determining the class location of Arab and Jewish productive,
manual, non-supervisory employees, It is crucial for defining and assess-
ing the development of commonality of class interests as an objective con-
dition for potential cross-national proletarian alliances. This criteria
is so important to our analysis precisely for reasons inherent in the pecul-
iar context of this class formation, namely, settler-colonialism. A form
of capitalist-foreign domination settler-colonialism involves the trans-
plantation of a dominant social formation in the heart of a dominated one.
In this particular case, it involves even the deformation, replacement, and
then reintegration of the latter by means of military occupation. Moreover,
this is an essentially sectarian settler-colonial social formation, in
which the State is Jewish and so are even the economic apparatuses (the
Jewish Agency, the Jewish National Fund, and the Histadrut - General Feder-
. 33
ation of Hebrew Workers).
Initially, these apparatuses came to exist precisely in order to cre-
ate the economic/material "base" for the Jewish State "superstructure".
And they continued to operate as exclusively Jewish economic apparatuses
after the creation of the State of Israel. - تاريخ
