He was also the editor and co-editor of several books.

He is the author of Peaceful Territorial Change (1994); Zones of Peace in the Third World: South America and West Africa in a Comparative Perspective (1998); The Impact of Norms in International Society: The Latin American Experience, 1881-2001 (2005); and Globalisation and the Distribution of Wealth: The Latin American Experience, 1982-2008 (2013). His areas of interest include globalisation and global governance, international relations of Latin America, peace studies, and the Arab-Israeli conflict.

This book represents a lifetime of wisdom in dealing with the most basic issues of the conflict between Israelis and Palestinians. It is a fitting tribute to a career devoted to finding ways out of the impasse and remarkable in its ability to encompass the narratives of both parties. It should be required reading not only in courses on the conflict itself, but in any course concerned with issues of justice and peace in seemingly intractable confrontations.Alan DowtyUniversity of Notre Dame, former President of the Association for Israel Studies
