A high-level insider's history of the efforts to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, from 2000 Camp David Talks to the present, that explains why successive attempts have all failed.The clash between Israel and Palestine has been one of the most emotionally engaging causes of modern times. Prophets without Honor tells the story of the grueling attempts to solve the conflict and examines the reasons for its resilience. Shlomo Ben-Ami, who participated at a high level in the July 2000 Camp David peace talks that almost led to a historic deal, uses his insider experience to illuminate the specific factors that impede a solution to the conflict. He finds that the occupation's traits of permanence, Israel's insatiable quest for Lebensraum, and a hopelessly fragmented and disoriented Palestinian national movement are to blame.Ben-Ami challenges the funereal historiography that emerged in the wake of the Camp David process, when--for the first time ever--Israelis and Palestinians engaged in the Sisyphean task of breaking the taboos surrounding the conflict. The Clinton Peace Parameters that emerged out of this process eventually became the litmus test of every serious peace proposal in the future. But ill-conceived perceptions of the other party, all-or-nothing theological fanaticism, and a lack of bold and enlightened leadership have made these attempts at peace-making a defining failure of the two-state concept. Ben-Ami scrutinizes the ominous alternatives to the two-state solution, such as the binational state, a unilateral pullout from much of the West Bank, and Donald Trump's Deal of the Century. He also examines the merits of a Jordanian-Palestinian solution. In discussing Palestine from a comparative perspective, he underlines its singularity while also shedding light on the dilemmas that stand at the center of any peace enterprise. Ultimately, his account is the most non-partisan, comprehensive, and balanced written by an insider representing one of the parties.

At the dawn of the third millennium, the most important form of political organization in the twentieth century, the nation-state, is coming under a great deal of pressure from restive ethnic groups that reside within its boundaries. The fourteen original essays in this volume analyse some of the challenges to the nation-state, and to modernity itself, posed by the revival of ethnic identities and ethnic conflicts. Issues such as multiculturalism, language policy, politicized religious fundamentalism and ethnic protest are examined theoretically from philosophical, political and sociological perspectives. These theoretical considerations are presented both in special theoretical essays and in the context of case studies pertaining to three types of states: industrialized, liberal states in Western Europe, settler states in America, Africa and the Middle East, and post-colonial states in Asia and Africa. Contributors to this volume come from leading universities in Israel, Europe and North America and from several academic disciplines: history, philosophy, political science, sociology and geography.

UNA HISTORIA SOBRE LOS ESFUERZOS PARA RESOLVER EL CONFLICTO QUE EXPLICA POR QUÉ DICHOS INTENTOS HAN FRACASADO.«La enjundia de este libro, profunda y amargamente crítico con los palestinos y autocrítico con Israel, con la izquierda israelí y consigo mismo, radica en su alcance universal». LLUÍS BASSETS, El PaísUn análisis certero sobre las últimas décadas del conflicto Israel-Palestina.En el año 2000, se celebró en Camp David una cumbre entre el presidente estadounidense Bill Clinton, el líder de la OLP Yasir Arafat y el primer ministro israelí Ehud Barak, para dar un gran impulso al proceso de pacificación del conflicto palestino-israelí. Shlomo Ben Ami, entonces ministro de Asuntos Exteriores de Israel y una figura relevante en aquella cumbre, realiza una crónica pormenorizada no solo de aquel acuerdo fallido, sino de todos los posteriores intentos de resolver dicho conflicto, que llegan hasta la actualidad.El resultado es Profetas sin honor, que, además de un libro que recorre la historia política de Oriente Próximo durante todo el siglo XXI, también es un profundo y ecuánime análisis de las razones por las que todas las iniciativas de diálogo han acabado en fracasos por ambas partes.
