Palestine and the Palestinians in the 21st Century de Rochelle Davis

Palestine and the Palestinians in the 21st Century

Autor Rochelle Davis, Mimi Kirk, Steven Gertz, Gabriel Piterberg, Leila Farsakh
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 6 oct 2013
Recent developments in Palestinian political, economic, and social life have resulted in greater insecurity and diminishing confidence in Israel’s willingness to abide by political agreements or the Palestinian leadership’s ability to forge consensus. This volume examines the legacies of the past century, conditions of life in the present, and the possibilities and constraints on prospects for peace and self-determination in the future. These historically grounded essays by leading scholars engage the issues that continue to shape Palestinian society, such as economic development, access to resources, religious transformation, and political movements.

Recenzii

"Offers a multidisciplinary lens on the past decade and deeply examines the major issues which have blighted negotiations between Palestinians and Israelis over the past 10-15 years: land, water, elections, political leadership, legal paradigms, and the death of the ‘two-state’ solution. It makes for an exciting, fresh, and timely new text on Palestine and Palestinians." —Dawn Chatty, author of Displacement and Dispossession in the Modern Middle East

It makes for an exciting, fresh, and timely new text on Palestine and Palestinians." - Dawn Chatty, author of Displacement and Dispossession in the Modern Middle East "The multidisciplinary essays in this volume portray a nation contemplating the possibility of stalemate, hemmed in, and searching for outlets to express its self-determination. Academics from Palestine, the U.S., and other nations each explore one facet of modern Palestinian society, from the ways that the economy has been engineered to be completely dependent on Israel to women's rights." - Publishers Weekly
