How and why Palestinian statelessness persists are the central questions of Seth Anziska's groundbreaking book, Preventing Palestine. A political history from Camp David to Oslo.
This evening, Seth Anziska will discuss his book and current political events in conversation with CMI researcher Kjersti G. Berg. What is the "Deal of the Century" - Trump's upcoming peace plan?

About the book
For seventy years Israel has existed as a state, and for forty years it has honored a peace treaty with Egypt that is widely viewed as a triumph of U.S. diplomacy in the Middle East. Yet the Palestinians-the would-be beneficiaries of a vision for a comprehensive regional settlement that led to the Camp David Accords in 1978-remain stateless to this day.
Combining astute political analysis, extensive original research, and interviews with diplomats, military veterans, and communal leaders, Preventing Palestine offers a bold new interpretation of a highly charged struggle for self-determination.
