| Description: |
Parker looks at developments from within the new 'self rule' areas, particularly Gaza, to assess the impact of peace on the future of socio-economic and political development. The author argues that the interim order has led to a greater fragmentation of Palestinian society and left it with little basis upon which to build an effective polity. |
| Synopsis: |
Rather than diplomacy, the pronouncents of politicians, or incidents of terrorism, this examination of the challenges facing Palestinians focuses on grass-roots developments from within the new "self-rule" areas, particularly Gaza, to assess the impact of "peace" on the future of socio-economic and political development. The author argues that the interim order has led to a greater fragmentation of Palestinian society and marginalized the Palestinian street; and that, threatening to consolidate the goals of Israel's occupation, it has left Palestinians less able to present a co-ordinated challenge to Israeli power, while international aid and Palestinian "security functions" have been used to isolate the peace process from grass-roots demands. Faced with economic hardship and the pressure to comply, Parker contends, Palestinian society has been left torn between resignation and revolt, with little basis upon which to build an effective polity. |
