About this title

Synopsis

Recent peace negotiations in the Palestine-Israel conflict have primarily focused on the status of the territories occupied by the Israelis in 1967, neglecting the concerns of Palestinians who lost their homes and property in 1948 and ensuing years. Yet, Fishbach (history, Randolph-Bacon College) argues, it is precisely this issue upon which peace efforts have foundered. In examining the topic, he provides historical background, assesses the various claims regarding the scope and value of Palestinian property losses, examines diplomatic activity surrounding refugee claims, and considers means for resolving refugee property claims.
