Ahmed Abu Khalil on Book Fair Debate
The article focused on the commentary by Jordanian writer and academic Ahmad Abu Khailil regarding the controversy that followed the display of books documenting the lives of Palestinian leaders at the Amman International Book Fair. He pointed out that minor incidents were used as a pretext for broader disputes characterized by ignorance of the nature of the publishing sector, import regulations, and printing requirements. He affirmed that most of the publications are legal and sold in the market, and while some narratives contain allegations and wounds that have touched Jordan and its people, the state managed the matter wisely without overreacting, in order to preserve national unity. Abu Khailil also warned against attempts to fragment society by evoking past conflicts, emphasizing that Jordan’s safety valve lies in deepening national integration by transitioning from legal citizenship to emotional citizenship.
