Cohen-Almagor, Raphael

Authors



Abstract

Since 2013, Professor Cohen-Almagor has been conducting a comprehensive research project whose aim is to provide a detailed analysis of three decades of peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian Liberation Organisation (PLO), from the start of the Oslo process in 1993 until now. The research project analyses the reasons for the failed peace process, the role of third-party mediation, and the keys for successful negotiations. The research is based on interviews with decision-makers and negotiators who were directly involved in the peace process, and on archival work. Professor Cohen-Almagor has interviewed 31 Israeli, Palestinian, American and British senior officials and peace negotiators. His book sheds new light on the proceedings, offering fresh insights and an in-depth explanation for the failure of the peace process.[1] Here we bring to print a small part of the interview with former Head of Mossad Shabtai Shavit. The interview was conducted on 2 July 2018.
