Beskrivning
One Land, Two States is a bold restructuring of an idea that remains at the heart of international diplomacy after generations of conflict. A pioneering effort to preserve the two-state solution in Israel and Palestine, the book imagines new paradigms in policy designed to disrupt the turmoil and disharmony that have gripped the region. This groundbreaking book is authored by a group of leading Palestinian and Israeli scholars and officials who deliver an innovative framework for viewing and providing solutions to the region's conflict. "If the land cannot be shared by geographical division, and if a one-state solution remains unacceptable," they ask, "can the land be shared in some other way?" The contributors seek to unravel these questions by examining a utopian world where seemingly irreconcilable constructs allow Israel to remain in the West Bank and maintain its military dominance and security position while Palestinians are given a right of return.By radically transforming the nature and stakes of the Israel-Palestine conflict and envisioning a Jerusalem that is transformed into a capital of full equality and independence, this book explores themes related to security, resistance, sovereignty, diaspora, globalism, religion, and new forms of political and economic power that are not dependent on land ownership. Written to inform policy makers, scholars, and researchers interested in the Middle East and related areas, this book and its solutions and presentation could be used as a practical model for resolution of conflicts worldwide.

"A coterie of bold, open-minded international academics offers a fresh paradigm for Israeli-Palestinian coexistence... A visionary approach so daring that it could actually work." Kirkus "In an effort to circumvent a seemingly bleak future, a group of Israeli and Palestinian scholars is proposing and examining an interesting and provocative paradigm shift ... these essayists provide some interesting and refreshing ideas." -- Jay Freeman Booklist "The idea merits further exploration." Publishers Weekly "A perceptual and cognitive turnaround aimed at formulating a solution to the situation. And it may well be that this is precisely what it takes to get out of the impasse the diplomatic process has reached." -- Arad Nir Al-Monitor "A provocative and daring new approach to peacefully meeting the national rights of Israelis and Palestinians." -- Rami G. Khouri Agence Global "It is evident that the editors put considerable thought into seeking a fine balance between Israeli and Palestinian scholars-and this is done quite artfully." Israel Journal of Foreign Affairs "Throughout the book, Levine, and Mossberg investigate every aspect of of the idea of "Parallel States." They analyze a new coexistence of Israel and Palestine at all levels: economic, religious, judicial; and how it would prevent the emergence of tensions between the communities." -- Joan Catala Margarit afkar/ideas "[One land, two states] stimulates new thinking towards resolving the Israel- Palestine conflict." -- Muhammad Yaseen Gada Intellectual Discourse "One Land, Two States performs a valuable service in presenting a different framework for discussion of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict... the questions it raises are provocative and worthy of further thought and discussion." Contemporary Jewry
