Part 1 The international context: Palestine - the international conflict; the Jordanian dimension; going home? the refugee issue. Part 2 The challenge today: the occupied territories - from control to revolt; the Israeli Palestinians - how they are controlled; Palestinian responses to the Jewish State; dilemmas of the Jewish State. Part 3 Looking to the future: the past revisited; the occupied territories - the prospects; Israeli Palestinians - the prospects; the choices that must be made.
In this book, McDowall examines the vicissitudes of Palestinian history since 1948 and the more immediate reasons for the recent uprising. He shows how the uprising has affected those living in its vicinity and asks whether its effect on world and Arab opinion has advanced the cause of peace.
