SynopsisLasting over 120 years, the Arab-Israeli conflict has become one of the most enduring and bitter struggles of modern times. The much-anticipated second edition of Arabs and Israelis includes new developments since the Arab Awakening. Written collaboratively by three eminent scholars from Israel, Palestine and Egypt, this groundbreaking book takes a balanced and multi-vocal approach to a deeply contentious subject. It maps the trajectory of the conflict from its very beginnings and examines the historical, economic, political and geographical implications that have led to an ever-growing gap in relations. Arabs and Israelis engages with current and controversial debates and encourages students to take the same critical view to their studies of the Middle East. The new edition includes: A unique analytical framework situating the conflict within regional and international perspectives, Coverage of implications of shifts between Obama, Trump and Biden, the Abraham Accords and the resurgence of war in 2021, New Key Developments, Key Documents and Key Figures boxes to help students zoom in on landmark events, policies and actors from history, Full colour maps, timelines and photographs to illustrate the conflict's passage in an engaging style. This book is ideal for students of History, Politics, International Relations and Middle East Studies. Book jacket., Lasting over 120 years, the Arab-Israeli conflict involves divergent narratives about history, national identities, land ownership, injustices and victimhood. Domestic forces and actors as well as international and regional dynamics have ensured the conflict's durability. A distinguished team of authors comprising an Israeli, a Palestinian and an Egyptian present a broader Arab perspective in this innovative textbook that offers a balanced and nuanced introduction to a highly contentious subject. Providing an overview of key developments in the history of the conflict, it explores attempts at resolution, before going on to portray the perspectives of the important parties. It places the events of the conflict within a regional and international context, providing an invaluable insight into the opposing narratives behind the conflict. The much-anticipated second edition of Arabs and Israelis includes: - Up-to-date coverage of key developments since the Arab Awakening, including the shifting pattern in relations from Obama to Trump, the Abraham Accords, the fall of Netanyahu and the resurgence of the war in early 2021. - Brand new 'Key Developments', 'Key Documents' and 'Key Figures' feature boxes to help students zoom in on landmark events, policies and actors throughout history. - Detailed full colour maps, timelines and photos to visually complement the text. - A rich companion website including interactive timelines and maps, discussion questions, chapter summaries and more.
