Sæwulf is known only from his fascinating autobiographical account of his pilgrimage to the Holy Land around the year 1100 at the time of the First Crusade, which can be compared with such works as Adomnán’s book on the Holy Places and Hugeburc’s account of Willibald’s journey to the Holy Land, both excerpted in Volume One. The excerpt here recounts a storm and Sæwulf’s visit to Bethlehem.

This chapter focuses on the final decade of the mandate period, which was marked by notable investment in both psychiatric institutions and expertise. Against the backdrop of the Second World War and with partition on the horizon, this chapter traces two developments in particular: the opening of the third and final government mental hospital at Jaffa in 1944, and the cultivation of expertise within the department of health around wartime trauma and mental nursing. Far from reflecting any new vision for colonial development on the part of the mandate government, a closer look at each of these developments reveals that investment was driven as much by colonial subjects and crisis as by British design, and built figuratively and literally on the foundations of the past.

Chapter 5 analyzes cases featuring a combination of experiential tools and networks. It examines Santiago, where despite an especially adverse institutional context, protesters from the neighorhood of Yungay were able to succeed thanks to an extensive deployment of experiential tools and networks. It examines in detail the multifaceted approach they used and the different types of experiential tools, with special attention to events and archives. The chapter also reviews a second case in Santiago, in the area of Colina, where protesters emulated the strategies developed in Yungay to great effect. The chapter reviews two cases of weak mobilization in Istanbul: Sulukule and Fener & Balat, where networks were fragmented and therefore mobilization was weak. It then hones in on cases in which the deployment of experiential tools and networks led instead to mass mobilizations: in Istanbul with Gezi Park and in Tel Aviv with encampments against gentrification that prompted the largest protest in the country's history. The chapter concludes by examining the institutional, ethnic, and social features that undermine mobilization in the Jaffa neighborhood of Tel Aviv.
