The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is one of the most prolonged,
contentious and divisive in the modern era. But, despite the
volatile nature of the conflict, which frequently flares up in
armed confrontations between the two, there have been advancements
towards a settlement through an admittedly protracted peace
process. In this book, Jacob Eriksson argues that the impact of
small states, such as Sweden or Norway, should not be ignored when
it comes to the ongoing efforts to negotiate between Israel and
Palestine. Although small states lack coercive power, the talks
they have sponsored in this particular instance (such as the
Norwegian-mediated Oslo Accords) have transformed both the conflict
and the conceptions of a solution to it. Of course, the diplomatic
and financial power of larger states such as the USA is undoubtedly
central to a negotiated solution. But by looking at conflict
resolution from the perspective of the small state, Eriksson offers
a unique analysis of power and diplomacy in the context of
negotiations and efforts towards peace settlements.
