Product Description
During the "pre-negotiations" to the current Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations, political and academic scholars convened at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania for a three-day conference to discuss the prospects and possibilities for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Under tight security, the conference brought together prominent political figures such as Abba Eban and Nabeel Shaath, senior statesmen of the Israeli and Palestinian people, to discuss the diplomatic perspectives of a two-state solution. A score of noted scholars, including Shlomo Gazit, Emile Sahliyeh, Mark A. Heller, and Shibley Telhami, discussed the historical, strategic, social-political, and economic perspectives of such a solution. Collected in this book are their words and the discussion between them. Here you will find a rare glimpse of how mainstream figures from all sides discuss these highly charged issues. Their forward-looking analyses will help you to understand the future developments in these peace negotiations. "The honest dialogue contained in this book is precisely what Arabs, Palestinians and Israelis need as they undertake the difficult task of negotiating peace in the Middle East. The book not only explores the political, economic, and historical dimensions of the conflict, it provides a realistic assessment of how such issues can be incorporated into the peace process. The message is clear: the obstacles to peace are great, but the need for peace is greater." James Zogby President, the Arab American Institute "The authors have brought to book form a topic of utmost importance if we are to see the Middle East relieved of the pressures and uncertainties that prevail today and achieve a mutually accepted peace. The authors are to be commended for having created this opportunity to precipitate an intelligent discussion of the possibility of a two-state solution. I hope and pray that the book will be widely read." Philip Klutznick
