Download or read book The Settlements written by Ken Taranto and published by Gost Books. This book was released on 2022-04-05 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ken Taranto had been visiting Israel once or twice a year for seven years when he decided to visit the settlement, Ma'ale Adumim, the first he had ever been to. He had seen the signs for it on the highway from Jerusalem to the Dead Sea and could see clusters of apartment buildings on the hilltops. Six months later Taranto and his family moved to Israel and he printed out a map of all the settlements and began to research them. He learned there were six distinct regions of settlements in the West Bank--Shomron, Binyamin, Gush Etzion, East Jerusalem, the Jordan Valley and the Hebron Hills. They were of various densities and ages. There were small settlements with a few hundred residents, some with a few thousand, and others with over ten or twenty thousand people. There were also many unofficial settlements, called outposts, with populations made up of a small number of families. The Settlements is an architectural portrait of the settlements in Israel from a broad sampling of all types, sizes, densities, ages and regions.
Download or read book Lords of the Land written by Idith Zertal and published by Bold Type Books. This book was released on 2009-06-09 with total page 578 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lords of the Land tells the tragic story of Jewish settlement in the West Bank and Gaza Strip. In the aftermath of the 1967 war and Israel's devastating victory over its Arab neighbors, catastrophe struck both the soul and psyche of the state of Israel. Based on years of research, and written by one of Israel's leading historians and journalists, this involving narrative focuses on the settlers themselves -- often fueled by messianic zeal but also inspired by the original Zionist settlers -- and shows the role the state of Israel has played in nurturing them through massive economic aid and legal sanctions. The occupation, the authors argue, has transformed the very foundations of Israel's society, economy, army, history, language, moral profile, and international standing. "The vast majority of the 6.5 million Israelis who live in their country do not know any other reality," the authors write. "The vast majority of the 3.5 million Palestinians who live in the regions of their occupied land do not know any other reality. The prolonged military occupation and the Jewish settlements that are perpetuating it have toppled Israeli governments and have brought Israel's democracy and its political culture to the brink of an abyss."

Book Synopsis The First World War Peace Settlements, 1919-1925 by : Erik Goldstein

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The First World War changed the face of Europe - two empires (the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Ottoman Empire) collapsed in its wake and as a result many of the boundaries of Europe were redrawn and new states were created. The origins of many of the international crises in the late twentieth century can be traced back to decisions taken in these critical years, Yugoslavia being the most obvious example. An understanding of the peace settlements is thus crucial for any student studying international history/international relations, which is what this book offers. This book provides and accessible and concise introduction to this most important period of history.

Book Synopsis Settlers in Contested Lands by : Oded Haklai
Download or read book Settlers in Contested Lands written by Oded Haklai and published by Stanford University Press. This book was released on 2015-10-14 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Settlers feature in many protracted territorial disputes and ethnic conflicts around the world. Explaining the dynamics of the politics of settlers in contested territories in several contemporary cases, this book illuminates how settler-related conflicts emerge, evolve, and are significantly more difficult to resolve than other disputes. Written by country experts, chapters consider Israel and the West Bank, Arab settlers in Kirkuk, Moroccan settlers in Western Sahara, settlers from Fascist Italy in North Africa, Turkish settlers in Cyprus, Indonesian settlers in East Timor, and Sinhalese settlers in Sri Lanka. Addressing four common topics—right-sizing the state, mobilization and violence, the framing process, and legal principles versus pragmatism—the cases taken together raise interrelated questions about the role of settlers in conflicts in contested territory. Then looking beyond the similar characteristics, these cases also illuminate key differences in levels of settler mobilization and the impact these differences can have on peace processes to help explain different outcomes of settler-related conflicts. Finally, cases investigate the causes of settler mobilization and identify relevant conflict resolution mechanisms.

Book Synopsis Our Promised Land by : Charles Selengut
Download or read book Our Promised Land written by Charles Selengut and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-08-06 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our Promised Land takes readers inside radical Israeli settlements to explore how they were formed, what the people in them believe, and their role in the Middle East today. Charles Selengut analyzes the emergence of the radical Israeli Messianic Zionist movement, which advocates Jewish settlement and sovereignty over the whole of biblical Israel as a religious obligation and as the means of world transformation. The movement has established scores of controversial settlements throughout the contested West Bank, bringing more than 300,000 Jews to the area. Messianic Zionism is a fundamentalist movement but wields considerable political power. Our Promised Land, which draws on years of research and interviews in these settlements, offers an intimate and nuanced look at Messianic Zionism, life in the settlements, connections with the worldwide Christian community, and the impact on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict. Selengut offers an in-depth exploration of a topic that is often mentioned in the headlines but little understood.
Book Synopsis The Evolution of Human Settlements by : William M. Bowen
Download or read book The Evolution of Human Settlements written by William M. Bowen and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-08-03 with total page 317 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book analyzes the history and development of settlements—from the earliest periods in human history to the present day—from a Darwinian evolutionary perspective. At the foundation of the evolutionary model is the argument that the human capacity for complex communication and unique problem-solving ability have led to the formation and reality of the modern city and its scaled-up megacity status. While evolutionary theory forms the platform for the book’s argument, general systems theory provides the operational framework for the organization and interpretations of each chapter. Throughout the book, the authors tackle various issues, questions, and possibilities regarding the future development and evolution of human settlements.
