A History Of Modern Palestine by Ilan Pappé
One Land, Two Peoples
A concise narrative of Palestinian history from the late Ottoman period through the British Mandate, the 1948 war and its mass displacement, and the post‑1967 occupation and settlement era, the book documents the political, social and demographic transformations that produced the Palestinian refugee problem and ongoing dispossession. Drawing on archival sources and eyewitness testimony, it contends that these events were shaped by a settler‑colonial logic and argues that policies implemented in 1948 amounted to planned population removal; it then traces continuities in state practices, settlement expansion and suppression of resistance while centering Palestinian experiences and critiques of dominant historical accounts.
