The Holy Places of Jerusalem's Old City are among the most
contested sites in the world and the 'ground zero' of the
Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Tensions regarding control are rooted
in misperceptions over the status of the sites, the role of
external bodies such as religious organizations and civil society,
and misunderstanding regarding the political roles of the many
actors associated with the sites. In this volume, Marshall J.
Breger and Leonard M. Hammer clarify a complex and fraught
situation by providing insight into the laws and rules pertaining
to Jerusalem's holy sites. Providing a compendium of important
legal sources and broad-form policy analysis, they show how laws
pertaining to Holy Places have been implemented and engaged. The
book weaves aspects of history, politics, and religion that have
played a role in creation and identification of the 'law.' It also
offers solutions for solving some of the central challenges related
to the creation, control, and use of Holy Places in Jerusalem.
