Product Description
Product Description
Following up on their acclaimed book "Bad News from Israel", Greg Philo and Mike Berry present a concise guide to the Israel-Palestine conflict. Uniquely, it shows how there are many different histories of this conflict and discusses the wide range of contending viewpoints. The authors outline each of these and indicate those which are based on the most considered historical research. Ideal for anyone approaching the subject for the first time and a perfect resource for students, this is the most accurate, accessible and up-to-date account available. This new book covers all key events in chronological order, in each case examining the varied historical accounts and presenting the beliefs and explanations of key thinkers across the ideological spectrum, from Edward Said to Binyamin Netanyahu. Starting the with emergence of the Zionist movement in the nineteenth century, and the figures who shaped it, the authors go on to cover the founding of Israel and its subsequent history, up to and including the 'roadmap for Peace', the construction of the West Bank Wall, the death of Yasser Arafat and the withdrawal from Gaza. This uniquely accessible book will appeal to anyone looking for a concise introduction to the complex background to today's conflict.
