The 1924 Palestinian Citizenship Order: Who Belonged?
Om avsnittet
In 1924, the British Mandate government issued the Palestinian Citizenship Order, a legal document that determined who could be a citizen of Palestine. This episode explores the order's origins in the League of Nations mandate system, its impact on Jewish immigration and Arab residency, and the ways it shaped identity in a land where legal belonging became contested. We discuss the role of Herbert Samuel, the drafting process, the reactions from both Zionist and Palestinian Arab leaders, and compare it to other nationality laws in the post-World War I Middle East. The order's legacy persists in debates over citizenship and statelessness today.
