Israel on the Brink: And the Eight Revolutions That Could Lead to Decolonization and Coexistence -- Ilan Pappé, Hardcover
A renowned Israeli-British historian argues Israel is fracturing, and considers the issues that must be centered for a peaceful future for Palestinians and Jews alike In this timely book, historian Ilan Pappé argues that with the 2022 election of the most right-wing government in Israel's history, the October 7 Hamas attack on Israel, and the subsequent Israeli war on Gaza, political fractures inherent in the Jewish state have expanded dangerously--and will potentially lead to Israel's collapse. With the goal of working towards a transition that is as peaceful as possible, Pappé sets out his thoughts about the risks and opportunities emerging from this historical moment. Eight "mini-revolutions," he argues, will be necessary for this more hopeful future to emerge, including:
- Relocating the Right of Return of the Palestinian refugees to the center of the future vision;
- Establishing a new definition for the Jewish collective in historical Palestine;
- Finalizing a plan for the future of the Jewish settlements built in the West Bank since 1967; and
- Creating a new strategy for a united Palestinian national movement.
