An Israeli-Palestinian Confederation: The Only Plausible Two-State Solution: A Discussion with Bernard Avishai

September 28, 2021 @ 7:00 pm

This event is part of the “Contemporary Israel and Its Challenges: A Series of Conversations” series.

Has the two state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict become an impossibility? Is a “new-state” solution all that is left?

Bernard Avishai has written that “a two-state solution can be preempted by catastrophe, inertia, demagogy, venal leaders, weak leaders — or it can be pushed off to another generation. But it cannot just be ‘over.’”

Rather, it has to be rethought.

Join us for a fascinating discussion with Bernard Avishai, a faculty member at Dartmouth College and the Hebrew University of Jerusalem and a frequent contributor to The New Yorker, Harper’s and other venues.
