How realistic is peace in the Middle East? Certainly there appears
to be a reduction in conflict, and concrete improvements are
clearly visible: the Gulf War opened the door to regional
realignments that paved the way for the PLO-Israel peace agreement,
which in turn made peace negotiations possible between Israel and
Syria; Lebanon is rebuilding its cities following a cessation of
its civil war; Iran has evidenced signs of a rapprochement with the
West.
Yet some analysts predict that these changes are doomed to failure.
With its longstanding territorial disputes and pronounced ethnic
and religious divides, will this troubled region ever resolve its
conflicts? Pessimists further contend that vexed problems such as
gender relations and human rights violations remain unaffected by
the processes of international political readjustment.
This provocative and interdisciplinary book tackles these
controversial questions from a wide range of perspectives in an
effort to unravel the complexities of this exciting area, which is
the spotlight of tremendous global concern -- never more so than at
the present.
