Palestinians in Israel : Segregation, Discrimination and Democracy Hardback
by Ben White

- Information
Description
Palestinians in Israel considers a key issue ignored by the official 'peace process' and most mainstream commentators: that of the growing Palestinian minority within Israel itself. What the Israeli right-wing calls 'the demographic problem' Ben White identifies as 'the democratic problem' which goes to the heart of the conflict.
Israel defines itself not as a state of its citizens, but as a Jewish state, despite the substantial and increasing Palestinian population.
White demonstrates how the consistent emphasis on privileging one ethno-religious group over another cannot be seen as compatible with democratic values and that, unless addressed, will undermine any attempts to find a lasting peace. Individual case studies are used to complement this deeply informed study into the great, unspoken contradiction of Israeli democracy.
It is a pioneering contribution which will spark debate amongst all those concerned with a resolution to the Israel/Palestine conflict.
