Details

  • Chapter 10 argues that the historical debates between the communist and nationalist camps among ‘48 Palestinians shape today’s one- and two-state debates, and that Israel’s post-1990s emphasis on its Jewish character led many Palestinians in Israel to revise earlier, more optimistic views of Oslo (PDF p.273).
  • Her Brothers Apart is cited throughout Chapter 10’s notes for the pre-1967 camps, the Al-Ard movement and the post-1967 landscape (PDF p.290-291).
