A History of Modern Palestine: One Land, Two Peoples is a 2004 history book[1] written by professor of history at the University of Exeter in the United Kingdom and director of the university’s European Centre for Palestine Studies[2] Ilan Pappé and it was published by Cambridge University Press.[3]
Background[edit]
Ilan Pappe's book is the story of Phalestine, a land inhabited by two peoples, with two national identities. It begins with the Ottomans in the early 1800s, the reign of Muhammad Ali, and traces a path through the arrival of the early Zionists at the end of that century, through the British mandate at the beginning of the twentieth century, the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948, and the subsequent wars and conflicts which culminated in the intifadas of 1987 and 2000. While these events provide the background to the narrative and explain the construction of Zionist and Palestine nationalism, at center stage are those who lived through these times, men and women, children, peasants, workers, towen-dwellers, Jews and Arabs. It is a story of coexistence and cooperation, as well as oppression, occupation, and exile. Ilan Pappe is well known as a revisionist historian of Palestine and a political commentator on the Israel-Palestine conflict. His book is lucid and typically forthright. It is a unique contribution to the history of this troubled land which all those concerned with developments in the Middle East will have to read. [4]
