INTERNATIONAL LAW AND THE
ISRAELI–PALESTINIAN CONFLICT
The Israeli–Palestinian conflict has long been intertwined with, and has had a profound
influence on, the principles of modern international law. Placing a rights-based approach to
the Israeli–Palestinian conflict at the centre of discussions over its peaceful resolution, this
book provides detailed consideration of international law and its application to political issues.
Through the lens of international law and justice, the book debunks the myth that law is
not useful to its resolution, illustrating through both theory and practice how international
law points the way to a just and durable solution to the conflict in the Middle East.
Contributions from leading scholars in their respective fields give an in-depth analysis of key
issues that have been marginalized in most mainstream discussions of the Israeli–Palestinian
conflict:
Palestinian refugees;
Jerusalem;
security;
legal and political frameworks;
the future of Palestine.
Written in a style highly accessible to the non-specialist, this book is an important addition
to the existing literature on the subject. The findings of this book will not only be of interest
to students and scholars of Middle Eastern politics, international law, International Relations,
and conflict resolution, but will be an invaluable resource for human rights researchers, NGO
employees, and embassy personnel, policy staffers, and negotiators.
