The Middle East conflict system is perhaps the world's most
important and intractable problem area, whose developments carry
global consequences. An effective investigation of the context and
change in the region calls for a melding of academic approaches,
methods and findings with policy oriented needs. The Israeli
Conflict System brings together leading conflict scholars primarily
from political science, applying a range of advanced, rigorous
analytic and data-gathering techniques to address this single
empirical domain-the contemporary Israeli Conflict System.
Recognising the causal complexity of this conflict system, the
volume's central theme is that the system's current conditions are
best understood in their broader temporal/historic,
cultural/linguistic, and spatial/geographic contexts. Through the
lens of economic, geographic, historical, linguistic, and political
analyses, and the application of data analysis, experiments,
simulations, and models of rational choice, this volume shows how
diverse disciplinary perspectives and methodologies can complement
each other effectively. In this way, its chapters provide a model
for the integration of factors and contexts necessary for
understanding contemporary world politics, and a sampling of
theories, approaches, and methods that are applicable, useful, or
valid under different conditions. This book offers a cutting-edge
resource for scholars and students of Political Science,
International Relations, Conflict Studies and Middle East Studies.
