Richard J. Samuelson analizza le vicende politiche, storiche e sociali della Palestina dalla fine dell’800 ai giorni nostri. La questione palestinese rappresenta a tutt’oggi una ferita dolorosamente aperta, un rebus geopolitico complesso e, probabilmente, inestricabile.

All’origine di questo libro c’è un viaggio che comincia in Israele e nei territori occupati della Palestina al principio del 2023 e prosegue – nella riflessione – nei mesi seguenti l’eccidio del 7 ottobre. Roberta De Monticelli vede rappresentato nella Palestina il luogo in cui prende forma esemplare e tragica uno dei paradossi su cui si regge la civiltà. Da quando esiste, il diritto è in tensione costante con la giustizia e con la forza e vige in virtù della politica che pure ne è vincolata e regolata – salvo farsi non solo cieca ma criminale.

Die Frage, wem das Heilige Land gehört, ist heute aktueller denn je. Die Debatten zu diesem Thema sind oft von Ignoranz und starken Emotionen geprägt, noch immer verstellen Parteilichkeit und Machtinteressen den Blick auf die politische Lage im Nahen Osten. In seinem unentbehrlichen Standardwerk wagt es Michael Wolffsohn, an überkommenen Mythen und Vorurteilen zu rütteln. Umfassend und gut verständlich erklärt er die historischen Wurzeln des Konflikts zwischen Juden und Arabern, der bis in die Gegenwart nichts von seiner Brisanz verloren hat.
