Despite the boycott Hamas was subjected to since its victory in the
2006 parliamentary elections, it has become a significant player on
the international stage. It boasts a territory identifiable by its
borders, internationally recognized cease-fire lines and effective
authority over a population. This book, a study in international
relations, shows how Hamas willingly mobilizes Palestinian internal
issues to establish its legitimacy on a global scale, and at the
same time, uses its relations with non-Palestinian players to
compete against its political rivals on the Palestinian national
stage. Leila Seurat reveals that Hamas's foreign and internal
policy are strongly intertwined and centred mainly on Hamas's quest
for recognition. The book then is a comprehensive diplomatic
history of Palestine, focused on the political orientations of
Hamas towards both Israel and other countries. Its coverage spans
the movement's victory in 2006 up until more recent momentous
events, including, Hamas' response to Trump's 'deal of the century'
and Israel's announcement of the annexation of the Jordan Valley,
as well as the proclamation of normalization accords between Israel
and the United Arab Emirates and the impact of Covid19. The book is
based on Leila Seurat's extensive fieldwork and interviews with
Hamas's leading officials across the West Bank, Gaza, Damascus,
Geneva and Beirut in addition to recent video-conferences planned
by various NGOs and attended by West Bank, Gaza and Diaspora
Palestinians.
