Richard Falk has dedicated much of his life to the study of the
Israel/Palestine conflict. In Palestine's Horizon, he brings his
experiences to bear on one of the most controversial issues of our
times. After enduring years of violent occupation, the Palestinian
movement is exploring different avenues for peace. These include the
pursuit of rights under international law through the UN and
International Criminal Court, and the new emphasis on global
solidarity and non-violent militancy embodied by the Boycott,
Divestment and Sanctions Campaign (BDS). In focusing on these new
tactics of resistance, Falk refutes the notion that the Palestinian
struggle is a 'lost cause'. He also reflects on the legacy of Edward
Said and the importance of his humanist thought in order to present a
vision of peace that is mindful of the formidable difficulties of
achieving a just solution to the long conflict.
