Notes
1 Yusif Sayigh, An Incomplete Autobiography (Beirut: Riad El-Rayyes Books S.A.R.L., 2009).
2 Shafiq Al-Hout, From Homeland to Exile. The Story of a Palestinian from Jaffa (Beirut: Riad El-Rayyes Books S.A.R.L., 2007).
3 This is mentioned in several places, e.g., p. 129.
4 Philipp Amour, forthcoming book on Palestinian history, 1948–1983. I gathered some of this information about the PRC from my thesis on the history of the Palestinians, 1948–1983. In the context of my research on the Middle East (2007–2009) I had the opportunity to interview Anis Sayegh repeatedly, as well as further former researchers at the PRC.
5 The fact that Anis Sayegh put important value on documents and archives and insistently asked his researchers to verify such was often mentioned in the interviews I conducted during my field research in the Middle East (see note 4).
6 For example, but not limited to, Mahmoud Shreih, Husain Abu-Annimel, Hani al-Abdoullah, Souheil El-Natour.
7 See note 4.
