A critical history of Israel and the Arab-Israeli conflict

Eminent historian Arno J. Mayer traces the thinkers, leaders, and shifting geopolitical contexts that shaped the founding and development of the Israeli state. He recovers for posterity internal critics such as the philosopher Martin Buber, who argued for peaceful coexistence with the Palestinian Arabs. "A sense of limits is the better part of valour," Mayer insists. Plowshares into Swords explores Israel's indefinite deferral of the "Arab Question," the strategic thinking behind the building of settlements and border walls, and the endurance of Palestinian resistance.
