Countdown to Statehood

Product Description A study of Palestinian state formation in comparison to Zionist experiences. Review “It is a well-researched, highly-detailed study of one of the central problems of Palestinian politics for the past twenty-five years: the relationship between the ‘inside’ and the ‘outside.’ As such, it helps promote understanding of often puzzling political behavior on both sides. The comparison with the Israeli experience is both appropriate and illuminating, notwithstanding the contextual differences.” ― Mark A. Heller, Tel-Aviv University About the Author Hillel Frisch is Lecturer in the Department of Political Science, The Hebrew University, Israel. He has previously published (with Shmuel Sandler) Israel, the Palestinians and the West Bank: A Study in Intercommunal Conflict.
