Abstract
In this thesis, I use archival materials produced by stateless Palestinians living in the Americas in the interwar period to explore the manifold ways in which Palestinians understood themselves amidst profound political change in the 1920s. I draw on archival materials produced by various League of Nations sections to highlight the role that the League played in creating the statelessness of these Palestinians.
