Opis

This timely book explores the causes and consequences of the growing conflict between Israel's Jewish majority and its Palestinian-Arab minority.

Recenzje

'Ilan Peleg and Dov Waxman are liberal Zionists who believe that Israel's Arabs have been treated shabbily and who see big trouble ahead if something significant isn't done to change the way Israel - the state and the society - relates to them. Their academic (though not overly so) book attempts to summarize the current state of affairs and how it came to be, but also looks to solutions, proposing a path toward greater autonomy and equality for the Arabs that wouldn't require Israel to relinquish its definition as the homeland of the Jews.' David B. Green, Haaretz
