Structural Flaws in the Middle East Process: Historical Contexts
Negotiations between Israel and the Arab states have continued in several forms for over a decade, through three Israeli administrations, the death of a King in Jordan, and through countless riots and incidences of protest by Palestinians and Jews. The agreements that have been reached, and some situations established by defacto rule and force majure, have created possibly irreversible economic and political structures. This collection presents a debate among eminent scholars and public officials over the power these structures engender in the region.

Author Biography:J. W. Wright Jr. serves as the Chief Trade Advisor for the US Agency for International Development's mission in Egypt.
