This project wants to contribute to the study of changing patriarchal Arab family traditions in taking “transnational Palestinian families” as an example. The thrust of the project is to explore the impact of migration and separation on the social cohesion and cultural identity of extended Palestinian families with branches living in the West Bank, Israel and Germany. The focus is on exploring (with qualitative interviews, longitudinal family case studies, focus groups) cross-border exchange relations between family branches separated by political borders. Hence, three questions will be addressed: (1) What kind of differences will emerge when dislocated, yet transnationally connected family branches are exposed to living under long-term conditions in highly contrasting life worlds and social orders? (2) How do families cope with experiencing intra-familial differences coming up in the course of exchanging family stories, gifts, and remittances with relatives who have somehow become strangers? (3) What is the contribution of “encounters of difference” to inducing “social change from below” and how are the new social media (Facebook, Skype etc.) involved here? To gain new insights, we want to combine two strands of social research (Middle East anthropology and sociology, transnational migration studies) in a novel way and draw synergies from a collaborative research effort of Palestinian, Israeli, and German scholars.

该项目希望以“巴勒斯坦跨国家庭”为例，为改变父权制阿拉伯家庭传统的研究做出贡献。该项目的主旨是探讨移民和分离对巴勒斯坦大家庭的社会凝聚力和文化认同的影响。重点是探索（通过定性访谈、纵向家庭案例研究、焦点小组）政治边界分隔的家族分支之间的跨境交流关系。 ：（1）当错位但跨国联系的家族分支长期生活在截然不同的生活世界和社会秩序中？（2）家庭如何应对在交换家庭故事、礼物、礼物等过程中出现的家庭内部差异？ (3)“差异的遭遇”对引发“自下而上的社会变革”有何贡献？新的社交媒体（Facebook、Skype 等）如何参与其中？为了获得新的见解，我们希望以一种新颖的方式将社会研究的两个分支（中东人类学和社会学、跨国移民研究）结合起来，并从巴勒斯坦、以色列和德国学者的合作研究中发挥协同作用。
