The fruit of relentless peace activism and many years of
philanthropic work in the Middle East Peace Network, In Search of
Israeli-Palestinian Peace is Shai Har-El's unique, non-utopian,
proactive approach to Middle East peace between Israelis and
Palestinians. Recognizing the magnitude, complexity, and gravity of
the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the evidenced limitations of
traditional diplomacy, the author offers ideas how to enhance the
Middle East peace process by adding a non-governmental
peacebuilding component to the peace efforts. Such citizen
diplomacy efforts, he argues, should be launched at a preliminary
conflict transformation phase leading up to the final conflict
resolution phase. The ultimate objective of this preliminary phase
is to create-through alternative avenues, such as private diplomacy
initiatives, transnational mechanisms, and backchannels-a win-win
environment that is conducive to settling the conflict. This book
details the concepts, measures, and techniques involved in the
process with the understanding that the keystone for peace is the
defiant power of the human spirit in both societies that are hungry
for peace.
Introducing a framework to generate new conversations about
inter-religious dialogue and create a community of religions, Shai
Har-El argues that Islam and Judaism, sister religions, are closely
related to one another with roots intertwined in the land, in the
language, and in the memories of shared history.
