Our editorial policy is governed by the principles of our Charter. If you agree with all points, then you agree to our Editorial Policy. Below is our Charter of Principles:
- Commitment to Truth and Memory
The Razan Al-Najjar Collective was founded to preserve and spread the memory of the young Palestinian nurse and martyr Razan Al-Najjar, a symbol of civil resistance and the right to life. Our commitment is to historical truth, justice for oppressed peoples, and the appreciation of those who, like Razan, faced violence with courage, solidarity, and love for their people. - Defence of Palestine and the Struggle of Oppressed Peoples
We reaffirm the inalienable right of the Palestinian people to their land, self-determination, and resistance in all its forms. We extend this solidarity to all oppressed peoples who confront imperialism, racism, colonialism, patriarchy, and all forms of domination. We are part of a global front of struggle against systems of oppression. - Production of Collective and Popular Knowledge
We reject the separation between theory and practice, between academic knowledge and popular knowledge. We promote the collective construction of knowledge as a tool for emancipation, based on listening, sharing, and horizontality. Our intellectual practice is inseparable from social struggle, and our work aligns with decolonial, anti-capitalist, and anti-systemic perspectives. - Anti-Capitalism, Anti-Colonialism, and Anti-Fascism
We stand against the global capitalist system and its local expressions of exploitation, domination, and genocide. We oppose colonialism, fascism, Zionism, racism, sexism, patriarchy, LGBTphobia, and all structural forms of violence. We fight for a different way of life: free, just, and radically democratic. - Culture as Resistance
We recognise art and culture as arenas of confrontation and resistance. We support popular, peripheral, and insurgent cultural expressions that challenge the hegemonic project of symbolic and subjective destruction of peoples. We make culture a tool of memory, affirmation, and collective reconstruction. - Solidarity-Based Internationalism
We are part of an internationalist struggle. We reject imposed colonial borders and build alliances with movements, collectives, and organisations that, in different territories, confront imperialist domination. We understand the liberation of Palestine as inseparable from the liberation of Black, Indigenous, marginalised, and working-class peoples across the world. - Autonomy, Horizontality, and Care
We organise ourselves on the basis of political autonomy, horizontal decision-making, and the daily practice of care. We value human and community bonds as the foundation for long-term struggle. We reject authoritarian, hierarchical, and productivist models that reproduce logics of exploitation within militant spaces themselves. - Support for Palestinian Armed Resistance
We recognise the legitimate right to self-defence of occupied peoples and the role that Palestinian resistance organisations, including Hamas, play in the struggle against the regime of occupation, apartheid, and colonisation imposed by the Zionist regime. We defend the position that only the Palestinian people can decide their own paths of resistance – whether civil, cultural, political, or armed. We reject the criminalisation of Palestinian resistance by imperialist powers and hegemonic media, which attempt to delegitimise a legitimate struggle rooted in international law and the universal principle of the liberation of oppressed peoples. - Right of Return
We affirm the inalienable right of Palestinians and their descendants to return to their lands, villages, and cities from which they were expelled, directly or indirectly, since 1948. This right is recognised under international law and is an ethical and historical imperative in the face of decades of forced exile, loss of homes, and fragmented identities. To defend return is to defend dignity, justice, and concrete reparation for a people who have never ceased to dream and resist. Return is not only possible — it is urgent and necessary. - For a Secular, Plural, and Popular Palestinian State
We support the construction of a Palestinian state free from any form of theocratic or sectarian imposition, one that respects the religious, cultural, and political diversity of its people. We advocate for a secular state project committed to social justice, human rights, popular sovereignty, and coexistence among the different political currents and historical identities of Palestine. The Palestinian struggle is diverse, and this diversity must be reflected in an inclusive and anti-colonial national project. - No to the Two-State Solution: For Historical Palestine, from the River to the Sea
We reject the so-called “two-state solution”, which legitimises the presence of Zionist colonialism in Palestinian territory and perpetuates the fragmentation of its people. We call for the total and immediate dissolution of the State of Israel as a colonial, racist, and apartheid entity. We fight for a free and unified Palestine – from the Jordan River to the Mediterranean Sea – with the full return of refugees, restitution of stolen lands, and the reconstruction of Palestinian sovereignty over all of its historical territory. - For the Right to Historical Reparation for the Palestinian People
We affirm that no justice will be complete without the full recognition of the harm caused by colonisation, forced expulsion, military occupation, and apartheid imposed on the Palestinian people over the decades. We uphold the inalienable right of Palestinians to historical reparation — encompassing not only their return to their lands of origin, but also concrete measures of restitution, compensation, and the reconstruction of both national and individual dignity. The struggle for a free Palestine includes the acknowledgement of accumulated traumas, the accountability of colonial agents, and the healing of wounds inflicted by generations of systematic violence.
