Israel and the quest for permanence

"For fifty years, the conflict between Jews and Arabs has dominated Middle East politics. In their struggle to establish a Jewish state in a hostile region, the founding citizens of Israel put aside their cultural and religious differences to fight as a unified nation."--BOOK JACKET. "Ironically, it was the dawn of peace that brought these differences back into the light. Today, the nation of Israel is challenged by deep divisions within."--BOOK JACKET. "The founders did not envision this divided nation - but the founders are gone. Today's Israelis must decide how to carry the founding vision forward."--BOOK JACKET. "How will Israel's past shape its future? How will its people answer the looming questions of race, religion, citizenship - and nationhood itself?"--BOOK JACKET.
