One State Reality

<p><b><i>The One State Reality</i></b><b> argues that a one state reality already predominates in the territories controlled by the state of Israel.</b> The editors show that starting with the one state reality rather than hoping for a two state solution reshapes how we regard the conflict what we consider acceptable and unacceptable solutions and how we discuss difficult normative questions. <i>The One State Reality</i> forces a reconsideration of foundational concepts such as state sovereignty and nation; encourages different readings of history; shifts conversation about solutions from two states to alternatives that borrow from other political contexts; and provides context for confronting uncomfortable questions such as whether Israel/Palestine is an apartheid state.</p>
