It changes how we understand the conflict by exploring the period before World War One: a time when a unique sense of Palestinian identity emerged, and many Zionists imagined a Jewish national home within an Ottoman framework. Further, it argues that in the late Ottoman era Jews and Palestinians were already locked in conflict. The new freedoms introduced by the post-1908 Young Turk Constitutional Revolution exacerbated divisions, ratehr than serving as a unifying factor. Offering an integrative approach, this book considers both communties, together and separately, in order to provide a sophisticated narrative of how the conflict unfolded in its first years." ER -
