The Palestine Question in Maps, 1878-2002
Including over 50 color maps, this publication provides a guide to the Palestine Question from the Ottoman period through to 2002, shedding light on the real territorial dimen¬sions of the conflict, its causes, and the numerous schemes posited over time for its reso¬lution. A first series of maps follows the path of modern Palestinian history in chronologi¬cal order, focusing on key de¬mographic themes and political milestones, as well as identi¬fying the various proposals posited for the resolu¬tion of the Palestine Question (Chapters 1-3). Jerusalem itself is of such intrinsic importance to Palestin¬ian history and to the resolution of the Palestine-Israel conflict, that a separate section is devoted, in detail, to its changing circumstances (Chapter 4). Core issues, such as water and refugees, are also addressed in a separate chapter (Chapter 5). The text accompanying the maps presents a concise and clear overview of the historical, political and socio-economic circumstances providing the back¬drop for the individual maps and illustrating their place within the broader frame of Palestinian history. Complete with statistics, detailed references and notes, the text serves to illuminate the factors defining the territorial dimensions portrayed within the maps.
