The Palestinian Exodus 1948-1998
Editat de Ghada Karmi, Eugene Cotranen Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 ian 1999
This title deals with an important and often neglected subject: the Palestinian exodus and the creation of the refugee problem. The intimate and causal connection between the refugee exodus and the creation of the Jewish state in Palestine has rarely been defined and the two issues have customarily been treated as separate events. This book analyses this connection and reviews the Palestinian exodus from 1948, through 1967, right up to the present time with the continuing expulsion of Palestinians from Jerusalem. It explores the themes of compensation for Palestinians, the right of return of the refugees to Israel and the feasibility of return. It also sets out a vision for a future solution to the refugee problem, which remains an outstanding obstacle in the way of a lasting peace between the two sides. By bringing together historians, academics and legal experts to provide different perspectives, this book aims to address all the major aspects of this complex issue. As such, it forms essential reading for scholars and also for general readers concerned with the primary causes of and the solutions to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

Recenzii
'The Palestinian Exodus 1948-1998 is highly recommended, as a readable and very well researched book on the subject of Palestinian refugees.' Palestine Solidarity '..deals with an important and often neglected subject...As such, it forms essential reading for scholars and also for general readers concerned with the primary causes of and solutions to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.' The Middle East 'While many of these issues have been written about in the past, the value of this book is that it collects the updated research of recognised experts who present things in a current context. Coupled with legal arguments, the historical facts serve as useful criteria for evaluating the results of the peace process that began a decade ago.' Jordan Times
