The Politics of Dispossession: The Struggle for Palestinian Self-Determination, 1969-1994 Tapa blanda - 1995
de Edward W. Said
Writing with passion and intelligence, Said retraces the Palestinian Hejira, its disastrous flirtation with Saddam Hussein, and its ambitious peace accord with Israel. Said demolishes Western stereotypes about the Muslim world and Islam's illusions about itself, leaving a masterly synthesis of scholarship and polemic with the power to redefine the debate over the Middle East.
Primera línea
Anyone who has tried seriously to examine the contemporary Near East is frequently tempted to conclude that the project is an unmanageable one.
Descripción de la solapa
Ever since the appearance of his groundbreaking The Question of Palestine, Edward Said has been America's most outspoken advocate for Palestinian self-determination. As these collected essays amply prove, he is also our most intelligent and bracingly heretical writer on affairs involving not only Palestinians but also the Arab and Muslim worlds and their tortuous relations with the West.
In The Politics of Dispossession Said traces his people's struggle for statehood through twenty-five years of exile, from the PLO's bloody 1970 exile from Jordan through the debacle of the Gulf War and the ambiguous 1994 peace accord with Israel. As frank as he is about his personal involvement in that struggle, Said is equally unsparing in his demolition of Arab icons and American shibboleths. Stylish, impassioned, and informed by a magisterial knowledge of history and literature, The Politics of Dispossession is a masterly synthesis of scholarship and polemic that has the power to redefine the debate over the Middle East.
