      abstract = {This book explores the political economy of governance in  Palestine. It makes a unique contribution to studies of  governance and political economy using the Palestinian  Authority (PA) as a case study, introducing and developing  the concept of dual rentierism. The author uses primary  research to chart the evolution of the fiscal sociology of  the PA and explore how it has shaped the PAs economic  policies and the statesociety relationship in the  Palestinian Territories. The book adopts a critical  political economy approach, making the case that external  sources of PA income represent political rents that need to  be disaggregated and studied concurrently. It further  focuses on the drivers and constraints that have shaped the  PAs policy development and state-building associated with  its dependence on external revenues. Ultimately, the book  elaborates on how the need for fiscal survivability has  thwarted the Palestinian quest for statehood. Anas Iqtait  is a Lecturer in Economics and Political Economy of the  Middle East at the Australian National University Centre  for Arab and Islamic Studies, along with being a  Non-Resident Scholar at the Middle East Institute Program  on Palestine and Palestinian-Israeli Affairs. .},
