Description

Avi Shlaim's The Iron Wall: Israel and the Arab World is a comprehensive analysis of Israeli foreign policy, updated with a new preface and chapters on the country's most recent leaders. The book explores the doctrine of the 'Iron Wall', which emerged in the 1920s and became a central tenet of Israeli policy, prioritising military strength over negotiations with Arab neighbours. Shlaim examines the implications of this doctrine on Israel's relationships with its Arab neighbours, drawing on new material and interviews with key participants.
