It is therefore appropriate, the author contends, to analyze the merits of the Palestinian legal claims separately from their political claims. To do so, the book comprises five parts: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart I addresses the role of international law in the conflict as well as Palestinian legal framing and lawfare.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart II recounts the relevant legal history, including the crucial legal implications of the Oslo Accords.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart III analyzes Palestinian legal claims regarding the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart IV assesses the Palestinian legal case for statehood.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003ePart V analyzes Palestinian legal claims regarding Jerusalem.\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eUltimately, it is argued that the Palestinian legal case is weak even though the two-state solution continues to represent the most viable long-term \u003ci\u003epolitical \u003c\/i\u003eoutcome to the conflict. Moreover, the author suggests that Palestinian leaders have repeatedly opted for conflict perpetuation through lawfare and violence, rather than conflict resolution through negotiation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eProviding fresh insights into the claims and counterclaims of Palestinian legal arguments, the book will appeal broadly to anyone interested in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and international law.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eSteven E.
