wellreadtj 's review for:
On Palestine
by Ilan Pappé, Noam Chomsky
informative
medium-paced
The book was a good read, but felt like there was no end of sight- although its logical, the same is mirrored in the conflict. Although I disliked the self called pessimism passed on as "pragmatism/realism" in terms of solutions, I did not put the book down as it comes from a very self-critical IR perspective. This feels like an essential for anyone studying the topic of international relations and is amazing at highlighting how useless many of these institutional charades are. It was painstaking to see the lack of any kind of other perspective (As in approach of something more radical), but it provided a critical overview of the repetitive failures of ceasefire agreements along with feedback on approaches used by western activists that we would still be re missed to not pay attention to.
