This study aims at studying the feminist novel in Palestine under the Zionist occupation. The researcher chose the novelist (Sahar Khalifa) as a model since she is considered one of the most prominent creative writer in the field of the contemporary
feminist novels in her novels (We are No More Bond girls for you) and (An Autobiography of An Impractical Woman) and (The Cactus) and (The Sun Flower) Any researcher will not be able to understand the feminist novel in Palestine without understanding the Zionist occupation and the essence of the contradictions that a creative person lives in the atmosphere of repression, suppression siege, oppression and daily killing.
The research tries to show the image of the woman in these novels and did the writer (Sahar Khalifa) harmonize with her real life in Palestine or did she divert from her covey. This is what the writer tries to show at the end of his study.
Citizenship is identified in terms of a constellation of rights intermingled with
social and political duties including the right to vote, enjoying the public liberties related to
political practice, and occupying general posts, etc. Such contribut
ion is based on the
principle of equality, and acknowledging the full membership of the individual within his
community. The citizen, however, is obsessed by elevating the civilization of his
homeland, and continuing its history of progress and modernity.
Authority is a political and economic concept the existence of which requires the
status of human conglomeration. Hypothetically, it should be elected democratically. Its
function is to avail multifaceted services in order to guarantee the continuity of society and
government, thus, the citizen and the state. Henceforward, authority types basically spring
from the variety of services that are supposed to provide to society and citizens.
The practical applicability of the principle of citizenship is likely to ensure the
strength of states and the availability of the elements of its independent existence, the
sovereignty of its authority, its citizens' monitoring of its treasures and wealth, its officials'
keenness to keep it progressed and elevated, and their dedication to keep it upright.
Accordingly, what is the relationship between rights and duties? What is the relationship of
each of them to citizenship and authority?
