Chances for Peace uses extensive sources in English, Hebrew, and Arabic to systematically measure the potentiality levels of opportunity across some ninety years of attempted negotiations in the Arab-Israeli conflict. With enlightening revelations that defy conventional wisdom, this study provides a balanced account of the most significant attempts to forge peace, initiated by the world?s superpowers, the Arabs (including the Palestinians), and Israel. From Arab-Zionist negotiations at the end of World War I to the subsequent partition, the aftermath of the 1967 War and the Sadat Initiative, and numerous agreements throughout the 1980s and 1990s, concluding with the Annapolis Conference in 2007 and the Abu Mazen-Olmert talks in 2008, pioneering scholar Elie Podeh uses empirical criteria and diverse secondary sources to assess the protagonists? roles at more than two dozen key junctures. A resource that brings together historiography, political science, and the practice of peace negotiation, Podeh?s insightful exploration also showcases opportunities that were not missed. Three agreements in particular (Israeli-Egyptian, 1979; Israeli-Lebanese, 1983; and Israeli-Jordanian, 1994) illuminate important variables for forging new paths to successful negotiation. By applying his framework to a broad range of power brokers and time periods, Podeh also sheds light on numerous incidents that contradict official narratives. This unique approach is poised to reshape the realm of conflict resolution. 606 $aArab-Israeli conflict 606 $aConflict management$zMiddle East 607 $aMiddle East$xPolitics and government 615 0$aArab-Israeli conflict. 615 0$aConflict management 676 $a956.04 700 $aPodeh$b Elie$0541439 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910820771303321 996 $aChances for peace$93997614 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03550nam 2200733 a 450 001 9910973219503321 005 20200520144314.0 010 $a9786611374181 010 $a9781118045480 010 $a1118045483 010 $a9781281374189 010 $a1281374180 010 $a9780470294130 010 $a0470294132 035 $a(CKB)1000000000401492 035 $a(EBL)343680 035 $a(OCoLC)476158979 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000159773 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11161450 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000159773 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10158865 035 $a(PQKB)10445220 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC343680 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL343680 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10232894 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL137418 035 $a(OCoLC)187417680 035 $a(FINmELB)ELB177451 035 $a(Perlego)1009773 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000401492 100 $a20071227d2008 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe Fundamental Index $ea better way to invest /$fRobert D.
