MIDDLE EASTERN POLITICS

Away from Chaos

The Arab and Jewish Questions

The Middle East and the Challenge to the West

Geographies of Engagement in Palestine and Beyond

Gilles Kepel

Translated by Henry Randolph

Edited by Bashir Bashir and Leila Farsakh

This book brings together leading scholars to consider how the “Jewish Question” and the “Arab Question” are entangled historically and in the present day. It offers critical analyses of Arab engagements with the question of Jewish rights alongside Zionist and non-Zionist Jewish considerations of Palestinian identity and political rights.

Away from Chaos is a sweeping political history of four decades of Middle East conflict and its worldwide ramifications. Gilles Kepel offers a clear and persuasive narrative of the long-term causes of tension while seamlessly incorporating on-the-ground observations and personal experiences from the people who lived through them.
