The debate about the solution for the Palestine question has been going for a long time. But in light of the current deadlock in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process, the debate on the appropriate solution for the Palestinian problem has become more and more relevant in Palestinian society. The split in the Palestinian political arena (between Fatah and Hamas) reflects this debate clearly. Our speakers will present their viewpoints on why they think one alternative is better than the other, they will have the chance to respond to each other, and of course at the end we will open the floor for questions from the audience.
Speakers:
Prof. Ilan Pappe (University of Exeter) and Prof. Yezid Sayigh (King's College London).
