Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerusalem’s formal political borders reveal neither the dynamics of power in the city nor the underlying factors that make an agreement between Israel and the Palestinians so difficult. The lines delineating Israeli authority are frequently different from those delineating segregated housing or areas of uneven service provision or parallel national electoral districts of competing educational jurisdictions. In particular, the city’s large number of holy sites and restricted religious compounds create enclaves that continually threaten to undermine the Israeli state’s authority and control over the city. This lack of congruity between political control and the actual spatial organization and everyday use of the city leaves many areas of occupied East Jerusalem in a kind of twilight zone where citizenship, property rights, and the enforcement of the rule of law are ambiguously applied. Michael Dumper plots a history of Jerusalem that examines this intersecting and multileveled matrix and in so doing is able to portray the constraints on Israeli control over the city and the resilience of Palestinian enclaves after forty-five years of Israeli occupation. Adding to this complex mix is the role of numerous external influences—religious, political, financial, and cultural—so that the city is also a crucible for broader contestation. While the Palestinians may not return to their previous preeminence in the city, neither will Israel be able to assert a total and irreversible dominance. His conclusion is that the city will not only have to be shared, but that the sharing will be based upon these many borders and the interplay between history, geography, and religion.

Book Whither Jerusalem

Download or read book Whither Jerusalem written by Deborah Housen-Couriel and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2023-12-04 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The future of Jerusalem is the most difficult issue facing negotiators, political and legal experts. In the current peace talks between Israel and its neighbours, it has been agreed to postpone discussion on Jerusalem to the latest stage of the peace process. But the Jerusalem question continues to come to the fore at every turn, always charged with intensely emotional and uncompromising statements: not only from those parties who are directly involved, but also by eminent personalities, organizations and states elsewhere. The Jerusalem Institute for Israel Studies has collected 55 proposals: 12 were written between 1916-1950 and 43 between 1967-1993. Their authors, coming from various countries, present various approaches to the three main issues at stake: sovereignty, holy places, and municipal governance. Whither Jerusalem? summarizes each of the 55 proposals, gives brief information about their authors, and analyzes the similarities and divergences between them. The official position of five states and organizations is included, as well as a lexicon of terms used by the authors of the proposals.

  • ISBN : 9781983150395
  • Pages : 172 pages

Download or read book Jerusalem written by Kenneth Edward Barnes and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jerusalem is in the news nearly every day and has been for the last seventy years. The state of Israel was established on May 15, 1948. Since their Babylonian captivity, which was over five-hundred years before Christ, the Jews did not control their own country or the city of Jerusalem, except for a few brief years. In 70 A.D. the Romans destroyed their holy temple, slaughtered tens of thousands of them and made many others slaves. From that time forward, the Jewish people have been killed and driven from their homeland. They have also been persecuted wherever they went and made vagabonds with no home.Since the return of the Jews to their ancestral homeland there has not been peace in a city that God himself established as the City of Peace. Jerusalem has been fought over for many centuries and is still a flashpoint between the Jews and those that claim it does not belong to them. It will fulfill its destiny, however, because God is in control of its future. In this book, I will give the history of Jerusalem and Israel, the promises God made to His people, the Jews, and all those who follow Him. I will also explain the prophecies that show what awesome things will take place concerning Jerusalem, which will be in the not too distant future.Jerusalem is destined for greatness like no other city on earth. The reason is that it is the key to hundreds of biblical prophecies and the place where the armies of the world will come together to fight at Armageddon. Yes, only after this battle will the world realize how important Jerusalem and the Land of Israel are to God. Then the world will know how much love He has for the city, the land and the people that will call it home, both Jew and gentile.
