Lasting over 120 years, the Arab-Israeli conflict involves
divergent narratives about history, national identities, land
ownership, injustices and victimhood. Domestic forces and actors as
well as international and regional dynamics have ensured the
conflict's durability. A distinguished team of authors comprising
an Israeli, a Palestinian and an Egyptian present a broader Arab
perspective in this innovative textbook that offers a balanced and
nuanced introduction to a highly contentious subject. Providing an
overview of key developments in the history of the conflict, it
explores attempts at resolution, before going on to portray the
perspectives of the important parties. It places the events of the
conflict within a regional and international context, providing an
invaluable insight into the opposing narratives behind the
conflict. The much-anticipated second edition of Arabs and Israelis
includes: - Up-to-date coverage of key developments since the Arab
Awakening, including the shifting pattern in relations from Obama
to Trump, the Abraham Accords, the fall of Netanyahu and the
resurgence of the war in early 2021. - Brand new 'Key
Developments', 'Key Documents' and 'Key Figures' feature boxes to
help students zoom in on landmark events, policies and actors
throughout history. - Detailed full colour maps, timelines and
photos to visually complement the text. - A rich companion website

chapter summaries and more. A comprehensive and engaging account of
the Arab-Israeli conflict, it is the ideal companion for students
at undergraduate and postgraduate level taking History, Politics
and Middle Eastern Studies degrees.

Was the 1967 War a self-protective expression of Israeli
retaliation? Was it an unprovoked attack on Palestine, presenting
serious danger to the wider Arab world? Was it sufficient
justification for Arab states to unite against Israel? Each party
has a different perspective of each event within the conflict
across the Middle East, and thus tells a different story of this
ongoing war. The authors, an Israeli, a Palestinian and an
Egyptian, are uniquely positioned to present these opposing
perspectives, getting to the heart of the divergence and
accumulation of narratives that constitute the Arab-Israeli
conflict. Providing an overview of key developments since the war's
inception, this book explores attempts at resolution while
contrasting the views of important parties through each phase of
the protracted history. Events are examined within a regional and
international context, exploring this sensitive subject from every
angle. The second edition of Arabs and Israelis includes: - The
fall of Netanyahu, the shifting pattern in relations from Obama to
Trump, the Abraham Accords: now updated with pivotal developments
from the Arab Awakening to the resurgence of the war in 2021. -
Feature boxes on developments, documents and individuals help
students zoom in on landmark moments and policies. Including an
exploration of the 1981 Fahd Plan, a closer look at United Nations
Security Council Resolutions, profiles of leaders like Gamal Abdel
Nasser. - Detailed full colour maps, timelines and photos to
complement the text. This is the ideal companion for students at

Middle Eastern Studies degrees. Interactive timelines, discussion
questions, chapter summaries and further resources are available

A path-breaking collaboration between an Israeli arms control
expert and a Jordanian policy advisor, this concise book offers a
frank assessment of Arab and Israeli perceptions of their security
problems. Building on the bilateral and multilateral peace process,
the authors propose a set of measures to increase trust between the
two sides and break out of the security dilemma in which a move by
one side to strengthen itself provokes the other side to do the
same.
