The Israel/Palestine Question: A Reader Second Edition Edited by Ilan Pappe In this ground-breaking new edition of The Israel/Palestine Question, Ilan Pappe showcases some of the most recent areas of scholarly interest in the history of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, Including works that challenge previous conceptions and paradigms, Ilan Pappe' emphasizes a number of recent developments in the conventional historiography. All the chapters in this new edition are written by Israeli and Palestinian scholars, a fact that itself shows how much the drive to revisit the history of the conflict comes from historians belonging to the conflicting parties. The book also presents work influenced by wider historiographical developments, for instance the current interdisciplinary drive, as well as a sceptical view of elite historical narratives and the rise of non-elite history. The new edition includes: * Revisionist views on the formation of Palestine * Revised sections on the history of the 1948 war and the experience of Palestinians in Israel * A new section on women's history. With a fully updated introduction, Ilan Pappe's timely anthology is essential reading for all those who are interested in the history and politics of the Middle East.
