Now entering its third edition, James L. Gelvin's award-winning
account of the conflict between Israelis and their forebears, on the
one hand, and Palestinians and theirs, on the other, offers a
compelling, accessible and current introduction for students and
general readers. Newly updated to take into account the effects of the
2010–11 Arab uprisings on the conflict and the recognition of
Palestinian statehood by the United Nations, the book traces the
struggle from the emergence of nationalism among the Jews of Europe
and the Arab inhabitants of Ottoman Palestine through the present,
exploring the external pressures and internal logic that have
propelled it. Placing events in Palestine within the framework of
global history, The Israel-Palestine Conflict: One Hundred Years of
War skilfully interweaves biographical sketches, eyewitness accounts,
poetry, fiction, and official documentation into its narrative.
