| Abstract: | Working across boundaries of power, identity, and political geography is fraught with difficulties and contradictions. In Tali Tal and Iris Alkaher’s, “Collaborative environmental projects in a multicultural society: Working from within separate or mutual landscapes?” the authors describe their efforts to do this in the highly charged atmosphere of Israel. This forum article offers a response to their efforts. Writing from a framework of critical pedagogy, I use the concepts of space and time to anchor my analysis, as I examine the issue of power in this Jew/Arab collaborative environmental project. This response problematizes “sharing” in a landscape fraught with disparities. It also looks to further Tal and Alkaher’s work by geographically and politically grounding it in the broader current conflict and by juxtaposing sustainability with equity. |
