“ROOTS OF THE ISRAEL-PALESTINE CONFLICT, THE GAZA MASSACRE, AND PROSPECTS FOR PEACE”

Norman G. Finkelstein received his doctorate in 1988 from the Department of Politics at Princeton University. For many years he taught political theory and the Israel-Palestine conflict. He is currently an independent scholar.

Finkelstein is the author of five books which have been translated into more than 40 foreign editions including: “Beyond Chutzpah: On the Misuse of Anti-Semitism and the Abuse of History,” and “Image and Reality of the Israel-Palestine Conflict.” He has just completed a new book entitled “A Farewell to Israel: The Coming Break-up of American Zionism,” to be published in 2009.
