of the local British garrison. The Palestinian pound was also linked
directly to Sterling and backed by reserves of British Treasury bonds and

The Palestinian Arab economy could have survived and perhaps
developed in spite of its treatment by the British as a colony. However,
this was made more difficult by pressure from both the British Mandate

and competition between the two economic sectors in the Palestine
economy, were developing through the 1920's and 1930's, and the revolt
of 1936-39 came as a result of them. The armed struggle came to reflect
the summit of these contradictions between the Arab and the Jewish
sectors of the Palestinian economy.
