A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The Hodder 20th Century History series covers a range of topics for GCSE. All of these titles are carefully structured to reflect the results of recent research and historical interpretations. They are also a practical and accessible resource for teaching and learning. The Arab-Israeli conflict represents one of the most violent ongoing struggles of the second half of the 20th century. This text provides a balanced view of the tensions in the Middle East, ensuring that a wide variety of historical interpretations and sources are included. Starting with the birth of the Israeli state, the title goes on to examine the origins and consequences of the numerous military conflicts which ensued. Specific chapters on Israeli relations with the Palestinians also examine issues such as the refugee problem, terrorism and the war in Lebanon. The book focuses on the attempts at securing a lasting peace, from Yasser Arafat and the United Nations, the Israeli-Egyptian accord and the Intifada setbacks through to the agreements of the 1990s. The accessible narrative and source material are supported throughout by exercises which make this book useful for examination study and coursework projects.
