What factors have led to the failure of efforts at resolving the Arab-Israeli conflict? What patterns of negotiating behavior hold more promise for advancing peace in the Middle East? "Negotiating Arab-Israeli Peace" offers a well-informed, up-to-date view of attempts to resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict. It focuses on key negotiations from the Camp David agreements to the Oslo accords and concludes with an analysis of the Netanyahu government's negotiating tactics.Moving beyond strict historical chronology, Laura Zittrain Eisenberg and Neil Caplan construct a characterization of past negotiating practices by identifying the constellation of prior experiences, purposes, motives, timing, and psychological factors involved in each situation. The authors point to recurring factors that seem to doom negotiations and illuminate patterns that break the cycle of failure and hold more promise for moving toward an enduring peace. A generous selection of documents and a sampling of political cartoons contribute to this unique and thought-provoking presentation.
