Maggiori informazioni sul libro

In The Iron Cage, renowned historian Rashid Khalidi (Resurrecting Empire), a leading expert on the Middle East and the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, brings vital perspective to Palestinian attempts to achieve independence and statehood. Bringing together the latest scholarship, Khalidi concentrates on the period of the British Mandate (1920-1948), describing the processes by which a newly arrived European Jewish minority overcame, with help from its imperial ally, the claims and rights of the native Arab majority. In bringing this narrative up to the present, Khalidi rigorously details the missteps of the Palestinians and their leadership.
