Summary

In Writing the Arab-Israeli Conflict Jonathan Isacoff constructs the nature of historical knowledge by deftly examining the multiple histories of the Arab-Israeli conflict written by generations of Israeli scholars. He also undertakes briefer analysis of literature, drawn from both historians and political scientists of the Vietnam War, demonstrating that historical revisionism is not unique to the study of the Middle East.

Author Biography

Jonathan B. Isacoff is Assistant Professor of Political Science at Gonzaga University.
