Shemesh looks at the formative years of the movement that emerged following the 1948 War and traces the leaders, their objectives, and their weaknesses, fragmentation, and conflicts with their neighbors. He follows the formation of the Sons of Nakba, the establishment of Fatah, the reframing of Jordan as analogous with the Palestinian cause, and the creation of the Palestine Liberation Organization and its new expression of nationalism until the 1967 War. With unprecedented access to Arabic sources, Shemesh provides new perspectives on inter-Arab politics and the history of the intractable Arab-Israeli conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cfont size=\"3\"\u003eAcknowledgements\u003cbr\u003e Aims and Scope\u003cbr\u003e Part I \u003cbr\u003e The Leadership Crisis of the Palestinian National Movement, 1937–1963:\u003cbr\u003e The Decline from Power of Mufti Haj Amin Al-Husayni\u003cbr\u003e \u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEn Route to a Crisis of Leadership: The 1930s through World War II\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReturn of the Mufti and Increased Arab Involvement in the Filastin Issue\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe All-Palestine Government, September 1948: Historical Failure of Leadership or Default Option?\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Palestinians in the Absence of Leadership, 1949–1963\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Part II\u003cbr\u003e National Revival: \u003cbr\u003e The 1950s as the Formative Years of the New Palestinian National Movement\u003cbr\u003e \u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Nakba Generation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe \"\u003cbr\u003eSons of the Nakba\"\u003cbr\u003e Generation: Emergent Leadership of the New Palestinian National Movement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eManifestations of the Palestinian National Awakening: The Arab Nationalists Movement, Fatah, the Ba'th Party, and the General Union of Palestinian Students\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Palestinians of the Gaza Strip under the Egyptian Government\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Part III\u003cbr\u003e The West Bank Palestinians under Hashemite Rule: \u003cbr\u003e The \"\u003cbr\u003ePalestinization\"\u003cbr\u003e Process in the Shadow of Egyptian Subversion and Influence\u003cbr\u003e \u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Palestinians under the Hashemite Regime\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFirst Crisis: Aftermath of the IDF Raid on Qibya\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSecond Crisis: In the Shadow of Egyptian Subversion – December 1955–April 1957\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Crisis of April 1963: West Bank Palestinians and the Revival of a Palestinian Entity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Palestinians of Jordan, 1965–1966: Between Shuqayri, Husayn, and the Emergence of Fatah\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Crisis of November 1966: The Aftermath of the IDF Raid on Samu'\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Part IV\u003cbr\u003e Ahmad al-Shuqayri: Between the Arab Hammer and Palestinian Anvil, 1964–1967\u003cbr\u003e A Predictable Failure of Leadership and the Peak of a Leadership Crisis\u003cbr\u003e \u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAhmad al-Shuqayri's Path to PLO Leadership\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Struggle over Leadership of the PLO: Emergence of Fatah and Decline in Shuqayri's Status, 1965-1966\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThe Leadership Crisis Escalates: June 1966–May 1967\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eShuqayri: The End of the Road – June–December 1967\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cbr\u003e Conclusion\u003cbr\u003e Bibliography\u003cbr\u003e Index\u003c\/font\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\u003c\/font\u003e","brand":"Indiana University Press","offers":[{"title":"Brand New","offer_id":52525705527576,"sku":"9780253071743","price":24.37,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/freshlyprintedbooks.co.uk\/products\/the-palestinian-national-revival-in-the-shadow-of-the-leadership-crisis-1937-1967-paperback-softback-9780253071743","provider":"Freshly Printed Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
