Citizenship in the Palestinian case cannot be understood simply as legal membership of a state entailing, in the best of all possible worlds, mutual rights and obligations. This article presents the particularly complex political and legal challenges that Palestinians have faced in their struggle for defining their nationality, delving into the historical trajectories and changing political realities that affect them to this day. Even with the declaration of Palestinian statehood, and its recognition by the United Nations and 138 countries to date, the State of Palestine—albeit under foreign occupation and with diminished sovereignty—still has not adopted a nationality law or initiated a citizenship roster and acquisition process.

巴勒斯坦（非）公民身份

巴勒斯坦案件中的公民身份不能简单地理解为一个国家的合法成员资格，在所有可能的世界中，它们都具有相互的权利和义务。本文介绍了巴勒斯坦人在定义国籍，研究历史轨迹和改变影响到今天的政治现实的斗争中面临的特别复杂的政治和法律挑战。即使宣布了巴勒斯坦国地位，并迄今得到联合国和138个国家的承认，尽管处于外国占领下且主权下降，巴勒斯坦国仍未通过国籍法或启动公民名册和获得程序。
