Aharon Klieman, «Compromising Palestine»

"Klieman offers a superb compass, map, and guide to those practical aspects of partitioning Palestine which are likely to dominate the permanent status talks between Israeli and Palestinian leaders." – Gershon Shafir, professor and vice chair of sociology, University of California, San Diego

"The final status negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians could turn out to be the most important diplomatic process in over a century of conflict; Klieman's Compromising Palestine is the indispensable guide to follow as those negotiations proceed. It is hard to imagine a layman, or even a knowledgeable observer, following these talks carefully without Klieman's manuscript in hand. Klieman points the reader not only to the large questions with which the parties will have to deal but to the key details on the ground that will make or break the attempt to turn the tide of conflict in the Middle East." – Joel S. Migdal, Robert F. Phillip Professor of International Studies, University of Washington

"An Israeli scholar with impeccable liberal credentials provides an invaluable guide not just to understanding this conflict but also to its resolution. Every aspect of partition is explored in this highly informative and instructive book, from sovereignty and security to economics and water." – Avi Shlaim, professor of international relations, St. Anthony's College, Oxford
