Israel & Palestine: Why they fight and can they stop?

---

This book presents a new interpretation of the historical and contemporary realities of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Bernard Wasserstein challenges the conventional view of the struggle as driven primarily by irrational, nationalist and religious ideologies. Instead he focuses on hitherto relatively neglected dimensions population, labour, environment and the social dynamics of political change. He shows that Israelis and Palestinians live today in 'Siamese twin societies'. However much they may wish to, neither side can escape the presence and influence of the other. Despite the current impasse, bloodshed and hate-mongering, Wasserstein offers a realistic basis for optimism. The demographic, economic and social imperatives are compelling the two sides towards some form of symbiosis and accommodation. This original view of relations between Jews and Arabs in Palestine and Israel over the past century offers hope for progress towards peace in the Middle East.
