Perspectives on Arab-Israeli Diplomacy. Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs, June 23, 2013.
The
current efforts of the Obama administration to renew Israeli-Palestinian peace
talks come after years in which the two sides have not been engaged in any
negotiations. This diplomatic hiatus has had an impact on the public discourse
about the questions involved. Many observers in academia, government, and journalism
are frequently not familiar with all the nuances that will be raised. The list
of studies presented (at link) is intended to fill that vacuum by providing key
background papers on the most critical issues that will be on the negotiating
table. The authors of these works are former senior diplomats, military
officers, and governmental advisors, thus providing the reader an insider’s
perspective on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and the options to be
considered for its resolution.
