Beskrivelse
Was the 1967 War a self-protective expression of Israeli retaliation? Was it an unprovoked attack on Palestine, presenting serious danger to the wider Arab world? Was it sufficient justification for Arab states to unite against Israel? Each party has a different perspective of each event within the conflict across the Middle East, and thus tells a different story of this ongoing war. The authors, an Israeli, a Palestinian and an Egyptian, are uniquely positioned to present these opposing perspectives, getting to the heart of the divergence and accumulation of narratives that constitute the Arab-Israeli conflict. Providing an overview of key developments since the war's inception, this book explores attempts at resolution while contrasting the views of important parties through each phase of the protracted history. Events are examined within a regional and international context, exploring this sensitive subject from every angle. The second edition of Arabs and Israelis includes: - The fall of Netanyahu, the shifting pattern in relations from Obama to Trump, the Abraham Accords: now updated with pivotal developments from the Arab Awakening to the resurgence of the war in 2021. - Feature boxes on developments, documents and individuals help students zoom in on landmark moments and policies. Including an exploration of the 1981 Fahd Plan, a closer look at United Nations Security Council Resolutions, profiles of leaders like Gamal Abdel Nasser. - Detailed full colour maps, timelines and photos to complement the text. This is the ideal companion for students at undergraduate and postgraduate level taking History, Politics and Middle Eastern Studies degrees.Interactive timelines, discussion questions, chapter summaries and further resources are available online at bloomsburyonlineresources.com/arabs-and-israelis-2e.
