In The Lingering Conflict Itamar Rabinovich, a former chief
negotiator for Israel, provides unique and authoritative insight
into the prospects for genuine peace in the Middle East. His
presentation includes a detailed insider account of the peace
processes of 1992-96 and a frank dissection of the more dispiriting
record since then. Rabinovich's first-hand experiences as a
negotiator and as Israel's ambassador to the United States provide
a valuable perspective from which to view the major players
involved. Fresh analysis of ongoing situations in the region and
the author's authoritative take on key figures such as Ehud Barak
and Benjamin Netanyahu shed new light on the long and tumultuous
history of Arab-Israeli relations. His book is a shrewd assessment
of the past and current state of affairs in the Middle East, as
well as a sober look at the prospects for a peaceful future. While
Rabinovich explains the conflict between Israel and the
Palestinians -a classic dispute between two national movements
claiming the same land - The Lingering Conflict also considers the
broader political, cultural, and increasingly religious conflict
between the Jewish state and Arab nationalism. He approaches the
troubled region in an international context, offering provocative
analysis of America's evolving role and evaluation of its
diplomatic performance. This book builds on the author's previous
seminal work on geopolitics in the Middle East, particularly Waging
Peace . As Rabinovich brings the Arab-Israeli conflict up to date,
he widens the scope of his earlier insights into efforts to achieve
normal, peaceful relations. And, of course, he takes full account
of recent social and political tumult in the Middle East,
discussing the Arab Spring uprisings -and the subsequent
retaliation by dictators such as Syria's al-Asad and Libya's
Qaddafi -in the context of Arab-Israeli relations.
