The Israel-Palestine Conflict: A History

Autor James L. Gelvin
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 10 mar 2021
Now in its fourth edition, James L. Gelvin's award-winning account of the conflict between Israel and Palestine offers a compelling, accessible and current introduction for students and general readers. The book traces the struggle from the emergence of nationalism among the Jews of Europe and the Arab inhabitants of Ottoman Palestine through to the present, exploring the external pressures and internal logic that have propelled it. Placing events in Palestine within the framework of global history, The Israel-Palestine Conflict: A History skilfully interweaves biographical sketches, eyewitness accounts, poetry, fiction, and official documentation into its narrative. This updated edition features new material on the fate of the two-state solution during the Trump/Netanyahu era, alongside an expanded glossary and suggestions for further reading.

Recenzii

'Gelvin's book, with maps, illustrations, a glossary, thumbnail biographies, and a lean, well-chosen list of suggestions for further reading, fits the genre of the academic textbook at its best. Gelvin sets out the historical context in which Israeli nationalism and Palestinian nationalism have met and contended (and still contend) … Balanced, fair, and readable, this is a fine historical synthesis.' L. Carl Brown, Foreign Affairs
'There is little doubt that this book represents a concise, readily accessible, and intelligent survey of the historical development of the Israel-Palestine conflict.' Nigel J. Ashton, The Journal of Imperial and Commonwealth History
'An accessible, engaging, and lucid introduction to the history of the struggle for Palestine and the Arab-Israeli conflict. Anyone who wants a clear, well-informed, fair-minded survey of the Palestine question will benefit from reading this book, but even specialists who had thought there was nothing new one could possibly say about this topic may find it of interest.' Zachary Lockman, New York University
'Gelvin elucidates the broad trends in the hundred-year conflict, making them intelligible through the eye-catching examples and apt quotations … An accessible and thorough study from which students and the educated public can benefit. It is value added to a crowded field.' Ann M. Lesch, Journal of Palestine Studies
'Gelvin's witty and deliberately balanced account of two nationalisms, one Zionist, one Palestinian, is a refreshing marriage of iconoclasm and contextualisation.' George R. Wilkes, Journal of Jewish Studies
