A groundbreaking dual narrative history of Israel and Palestine which offers a new paradigm for the teaching of history in conflict and postconflict situationsThe battle lines of the IsraelPalestinian conflict extend to the classroom, where the two sides versions of their shared history diverge sharply. Now, two university professors aim to change the way the conflict is taught by exposing Palestinian students to Israeli history lessons and Israeli students to the Palestinian version of history. USA TodayMore than twenty years ago, in the midst of widespread violence in Israel and Palestine, a group of Israeli and Palestinian teachers gathered to address what, to many people, seemed an unbridgeable gulf between the two societies. Struck by how different the standard Israeli and Palestinian textbook histories of the same events were from one anotherwhether of the Balfour Declaration or the 1967 Warthey began to explore how a new understanding of history itself might open up different kinds of dialogue in an increasingly hostile climate. Their express goal was to disarm the teaching of Middle East history in Israeli and Palestinian classrooms.The result is a riveting and unprecedented dual narrative of Israeli and Palestinian history. Side by Side comprises the history of two peoples, in separate narratives set literally side by side, so that readers can track each against the other, noting both where they differ as well as where they correspond. This unique and fascinating format, translated into English from Arabic and Hebrew, reveals surprising juxtapositions and allows readers to consider and process the very different viewpoints and logic of each side of the IsraeliPalestinian conflict.An eyeopeningand inspiringnew approach to thinking about one of the worlds most deeply entrenched conflicts, Side by Side is a now classic book that offers to its readers a way to discuss and perhaps help find a bridge to peace in the Middle East.
