Much has been written about the Arab Israeli conflict, the
prospects for peace or war and the eventual establishment of a
Palestinian state, side by side with the state of Israel. The
emphasis, however, has been on the political processes of such
eventualities. The objectives of this book complement these
previous efforts, the central concern being with the economic
aspects of these various solutions.
In particular, it is concerned with the economic feasibility of
a state of Palestine. What minimum conditions must be met for it to
survive and prosper? What size population can it support, what
boundaries should it have and what period of time must elapse
before the full potential and viability of such a state can be
realized?
The book is set in the context of the general theory of the
economic feasibility of small nation states and the economic
analysis is illustrated by comparison and contrast between
countries from various regions and periods. The authors look in
turn at appropriate boundaries for a Palestinian state, the people
and land that will constitute it, the potential of the economy in
terms of income, employment and investment, and also the
Palestinian state within the regional context and the implications
of making the Palestinian economy a part of the larger region of
the Middle East.
A final chapter summarizes the findings and notes the areas
which require deeper study to appreciate the economic viability of
the Palestinian state."
