This book was released on 2013 with total page 70 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "In this report, the European Court of Auditors assessed how well the European Commission and the European External Action Service managed the Pegase direct financial support (DFS) programme which has been the EU's largest programme in the occupied Palestinian territory since 2008, providing approximately 1 billion euro in funding from 2008 to 2012. It concludes that the Commission and the European External Action Service succeeded, despite difficult circumstances, in implementing the Pegase DFS programme. However, a number of aspects of the current approach are increasingly in need of an overhaul. While some important results have been achieved, their sustainability cannot be ensured without major revisions such as encouraging the Palestinian Authority to undertake more reforms, notably in relation to its civil service. At the same time, a way needs to be found to engage Israel into taking the necessary steps to help ensure that Pegase DFS is effective." -- Page [4] of cover.

Book Synopsis The European Union and the Palestinian Question by : Álvaro de Vasconcelos
Download or read book The European Union and the Palestinian Question written by Álvaro de Vasconcelos and published by Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research. This book was released on 2012-11-14 with total page 20 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: European public opinion holds that the gravest obstacle to peace in the Middle East is the unwillingness of both sides to compromise, stemming from Israel’s oppression of Palestinians, Israeli housing settlements on disputed territories and Palestinian suicide attacks. When asked to identify the primary aggressor in the conflict, 43 percent of respondents chose both Israel and the Palestinians, reflecting the chain of retaliations in the conflict. Only 25 percent considered Israel to be the sole aggressor and even less – 13 percent – believed that only the Palestinian side was to blame. Although the European public deeply condemns the Palestinian suicide and rocket attacks on Israel, they are equally critical of Tel Aviv’s response. For example: 46 percent disapprove of the wall built to separate Israel from the West Bank; 53 percent consider the economic blockade of the Gaza Strip to be illegal; and 60 percent condemn the Israeli armed incursion in the area in the winter of 2008–2009. These results show a growing trend in the opinion of European citizens that Israeli government policies are responsible for the failure of the peace process. The Arab democratic wave is fundamentally changing the regional context of the Palestinian issue, and gradually ending the American and European quasi-monopoly as external peace mediators. Obviously, in the past a number of Arab initiatives have occurred, but the gap between leaders and Arab public opinion allowed some – such as Mubarak – to align them with the American stance at the time. The end of the Mubarak regime has brought Egypt much closer to all Palestinians. It was already clear there was no longer support in Egypt for the stifling closure of Gaza. With the end of authoritarianism, Egypt was quick to move to a position quite similar to that of Turkey, in that it combines a genuine desire for peace with Israel with strong support for the rights of the Palestinians, including the right to statehood, an opinion shared by the majority of the European public. Whether a one- or a two-state solution looms on the horizon, the question of civil rights for the Palestinians will not go away, nor will the need of all parties in the conflict to comply with international law. Whatever the circumstances, an approach centered on adherence to laws, norms and fundamental rights seems to be the option that will remain at the heart of EU policy for years to come.
Book Synopsis The EU's Self-defeating Aid Policy Towards Palestine by : Brigitte Herremans
Download or read book The EU's Self-defeating Aid Policy Towards Palestine written by Brigitte Herremans and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 9 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Motivated by the dual aims of strengthening the Middle East Peace Process and contributing to Palestinian state-building, the European Union and its member states have been the biggest donors of financial assistance to the Palestinians. But these efforts have not managed to achieve the desired change, as the EU failed to develop a coherent strategy to address Israel’s violations of international humanitarian law and it has accepted practices that undermine its political objectives. Hence, the aid has not contributed to a strong Palestinian government that can contribute to the security of both Palestinian and Israeli civilians. And meanwhile the Palestinian economy has become increasingly dependent on donor aid while Israel continues to strengthen its control over the territory.

Download or read book The European Union and Occupied Palestinian Territories written by Dimitris Bouris and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-02-03 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyses the present European Union (EU) approach to state-building, both in policy and operation. It offers a review of the literature on peace-building, EU state-building and conflict resolution, before examining in detail the EU’s role as a state-builder in the case of the Occupied Palestinian Territories following the 1993 Oslo Accords. Drawing on extensive fieldwork and over 140 interviews carried out in Brussels, London, Jerusalem and Ramallah with EU, Palestinian and Israeli officials as well as academics, members of NGOs and civil society, the author evaluates the present approach of state-building and offers a framework to test the effectiveness of the EU as a state-builder. Examining security sector reform, judiciary sector reform and the rule of law, the book brings the ‘voices from the field’ to the forefront and measures the contribution of the EU to state-building against a backdrop of on-going conflict and a polarised social setting. This book will be of interest to students and scholars of international relations, EU politics, Middle Eastern politics, conflict resolution and state-building.

Book Synopsis Europe and the Occupation of Palestinian Territories Since 1967 by : Federica Bicchi
Download or read book Europe and the Occupation of Palestinian Territories Since 1967 written by Federica Bicchi and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-17 with total page 123 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Focusing on key countries and topics, this book looks at Europe’s involvement in the occupation of Palestinian territories. What has been Europe’s role in the occupation of Palestinian territories since 1967? How have European actors responded, countered and/or supported the occupation? The international context of this exceptionally long occupation shows a complex web of denunciations, but also and especially complicit engagements and indifference. The book looks at the perspective of international law, before analysing the European Union and key European countries (France, Germany, Norway, Sweden, United Kingdom). It also embraces different perspectives, from the debate on campus to the role of European multinational companies to the conceptual approach of the World Bank. While much of the literature focuses on Israel, Palestine and the United States, this volume by leading experts adds a very important piece to the puzzle: the European dimension. The chapters in this book were originally published as a special issue of the journal, Global Affairs.
Book Synopsis Israel and the European Union by : Sharon Pardo
Download or read book Israel and the European Union written by Sharon Pardo and published by Lexington Books. This book was released on 2012-01-12 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Israel's relations with the European Union stretch back to the early days of the European Community and the signing of the Treaty of Rome in 1957. From that point onward, Israel and Europe have developed an increasingly strong network of political, economic, scientific, and cultural ties. These relations have, however, consisted of a number of conflicting trends. Indeed, even while the EU has become Israel's most important trading partner, the political relationship has been marked by disappointment, frustration, and, at times, even anger. Israel and the European Union: A Documentary History, by Sharon Pardo and Joel Peters, traces the history of these complex relations by bringing together over two hundred documents in one volume. The documents contained in this book are divided into five time periods: i) 1957–1966, Israel Looks to Europe; ii) 1967–1979, Between War and Peace; iii) 1980–1991, From Venice to Madrid; iv) 1992–2003, From Oslo to Barcelona; and v) 2004–2011, A Renaissance Cut Short?. Each section is preceded by a short essay outlining the major themes of Israeli-European Relations during those years. The authors have not added any commentary to the documents themselves and instead have allowed the documents to speak for themselves. The aim of this book is to offer a public record for future researchers and students of the dynamics of European-Israeli relations—as well as of Europe's relationship with the Middle East—over the past fifty years. Israel and the European Union: A Documentary History is designed to serve as a companion volume to Pardo and Peters' Uneasy Neighbors: Israel and the European Union (Lexington Books, 2010).
Book Synopsis Decolonizing Palestine by : Somdeep Sen
Download or read book Decolonizing Palestine written by Somdeep Sen and published by Cornell University Press. This book was released on 2020-12-15 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Decolonizing Palestine, Somdeep Sen rejects the notion that liberation from colonialization exists as a singular moment in history when the colonizer is ousted by the colonized. Instead, he considers the case of the Palestinian struggle for liberation from its settler colonial condition as a complex psychological and empirical mix of the colonial and the postcolonial. Specifically, he examines the two seemingly contradictory, yet coexistent, anticolonial and postcolonial modes of politics adopted by Hamas following the organization's unexpected victory in the 2006 Palestinian Legislative Council election. Despite the expectations of experts, Hamas has persisted as both an armed resistance to Israeli settler colonial rule and as a governing body. Based on ethnographic material collected in the Gaza Strip, the West Bank, Israel, and Egypt, Decolonizing Palestine argues that the puzzle Hamas presents is not rooted in predicting the timing or process of its abandonment of either role. The challenge instead lies in explaining how and why it maintains both, and what this implies for the study of liberation movements and postcolonial studies more generally.
