"An exciting and wideranging exploration of the myths and narratives that lie behind the unresolved ArabIsraeli and IsraeliPalestinian conflicts. . . . Anyone dedicated to the fullest possible understanding of the IsraeliPalestinian conflict will want to read this volume cover to cover." Neil Caplan, Vanier College, MontrealWhy does Hamas refuse to recognize the legitimacy of the state of Israel? Why do Israeli settlers in the West Bank insist that Israel has a legitimate right to that territory? What makes the IsraeliPalestinian conflict so intractable? Reflecting both Israeli and Palestinian points of view, this provocative volume addresses the two powerful, bitterly contested, competing historical narratives that underpin the IsraeliPalestinian conflict. Compelling contributions by Israeli and Palestinian authors show how the intertwined reckonings of the historical pasthistory's double helixprovide powerful ammunition for current battles. Just when a resolution of the conflict might seem to be on the horizon, the gulf of history resurges to separate the contenders. Palestinians and Israelis remain locked in struggle, tightly entangled and enveloped by a historical cocoon of growing complexity, fundamental disagreement, and overriding miscalculation.This book creates a dialogue among Palestinian and Israeli authors, who examine opposing versions of the historical narratives in the context of contemporary IsraeliPalestinian relations. In hardhitting essays the contributors debate the two justifying and rationalizing constructions, laying bare the conflict's roots and the distorted prisms that fuel it. Israeli and Palestinian Narratives of Conflict is an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to make sense of today's headlines.Contributors are Sami Adwan, Dan BarOn, Mordechai BarOn, Daniel BarTal, Nathan J. Brown, Saleh Abdel Jawad, Eyal Naveh, Ilan Pappe, Dina Porat, Robert I. Rotberg, Nadim N. Rouhana, Gavriel Salomon, and Mark Tessler.
