Of all the "hot spots" in the world today, the apparently endless clash between Jews and Arabs in the Middle East seems unique in its longevity and resistance to resolution. Is this conflict really different from other ethnic and nationalist confrontations, and if so, in what way? In this fully revised and updated third edition of his highly respected introductory text, Alan Dowty demystifies the conflict by putting it in broad historical perspective, identifying its roots, and tracing its evolution up to the current impasse. His account offers a clear analytic framework for understanding transformations over time, and in doing so, punctures the myths of an "age-old" conflict with an unbridgeable gap between the two sides. Rather than simply reciting historical detail, this book presents a clear overview that serves as a road map through the thicket of conflicting claims. This newly expanded edition updates the analysis to include the latest developments, and also integrates into the analysis a fuller account of the regional and international context of the conflict. In this account the opposed perspectives of the two sides are presented in full, leaving readers to make their own evaluations of the issues. The book thus expresses fairly and objectively the concerns, hopes, fears, and passions of both sides, making it clear why this conflict is waged with such vehemence -- and why, for all that, there are some grounds for optimism. Review: excellent analysis - Dowty offers a clear and thorough summary of the Israel/Palestine conflict. He covers the historical background that informs the positions of each side, and his explication of the stages of the conflict sheds much light on the reasons for the failure, so far, to find a solution. An excellent source for those wanting to understand both sides of this on-going problem. Review: Excellent analogy of the Palestine problem - I have been looking for an accurate and balanced book on this historic subject for a while now and I believe the author has provided it. considered opinions and well sourced. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,302,369 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,046 in Israel & Palestine History (Books) #2,252 in Middle Eastern Politics #6,984 in Political Science (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 24 Reviews | ## Images ![Israel / Palestine - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81Sp8FmYLhL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ excellent analysis *by S***I on November 16, 2013* Dowty offers a clear and thorough summary of the Israel/Palestine conflict.
