Dialogue on Palestinian State-Building and Identity – PASSIA Meetings 1995-1998

This publication is a selection of the full texts or summaries of 18 meetings on state-building and identity issues that were held at PASSIA during the period 1995-1998 against the background that the Palestinian people were directly involved in a chain of social and geopolitical events, which transformed their society from being a Diaspora and Intifada-based society to a civil society in the making with a more or less legitimized leadership that is preoccupied with negotiating towards a political settlement. The papers in this volume deal with issues such as the evolution of the PA, the role of the opposition, elections, women’s participation, the PLC, government, civil society, national identity, the peace process, political trends and new elites.
