Peacemaking in a Divided Society

"Peacemaking in a Divided Society: Israel After Rabin is an interdisciplinary study of Israeli society in one of the defining moments in the history of Israel. Prominent scholars of Israel's politics and foreign affairs discuss the critical aspects of the political order, economics, the military, the role of the media and legal reform that are shaping a new Israel. The book reflects the profound changes in foreign policy analysis that have taken place in recent years, the delicate interplay between the domestic, the regional and the global, and the divided nature of Israeli politics."

"Peacemaking in a Divided Society provides a profile of the overlapping network of cleavages of Israeli society - ethnic, political and ideological. Despite the breakthroughs achieved by Israel with its neighbours it remains to be seen whether the internal divides will prove to be insurmountable obstacles in realizing a lasting peace."--Jacket.
