The Middle East between War and Peace
Abstract
The ups and downs of the Middle East peace process during the last decade, and its alternating cycles of dialogue and violence during its diverse stages have led to a crisis in expectations and diagnosis. The nature of the conflict, its historical roots, its permanence and multiple dimensions— ethnic, religious, national and political—has bred skepticism. Not only borders and territories are in dispute, but also rights and memories.
