Christians have been an integral part of Gazan society since the tradition arrived in the Byzantine period, but their continued presence today is deeply threatened due to outward migration. Several interrelated factors have contributed to this departure. Like all Gazan residents, they are subject to the Israeli-Egyptian blockade, which has stifled interactions with the outside world and crushed Gaza’s economy since 2007. The area has been overwhelmed by the destruction of multiple wars that have left infrastructure crippled and many dead. Further, although shared nationalism with their Muslim neighbors has fostered mutual solidarities, Christians have experienced a rise in persecution which has exacerbated inter-faith relations. Taken together, these factors begin to explain why many Gazan Christians have chosen to migrate. But these reasons say little about their experiences after their departure or the dilemmas those who remain encounter. This study, therefore, asks: What have been the post-migration experiences of Gazan Christians? How have those who remain made sense of their lives in such ongoing perilous conditions? In this paper, I explore the social, political, and economic repercussions for those who have left Gaza, observing that the logics of migration have not necessarily met migrants’ expectations in its consequences. For those who stay, I disentangle the dilemmas they experience by choosing—or being forced—to remain. I note, too, that relations between the diaspora and those in Gaza play an important, if ambivalent, role in sustaining both sides of the community. Findings are based on personal interviews with Christian both in and outside Gaza, as well as international clergy and aid organizations with ongoing connections to the community. The study engages literature on Christians and Palestinian nationalism, minorities communities in the middle east, and migration more broadly.
