About the Book

"Middle Eastern Maze: Israel, the Arabs, and the Region, 1948-2022" is an expanded and updated version of Itamar Rabinovich’s "The Lingering Conflict," published by Brookings in 2012. This new book offers a unique narrative of the Arab-Israeli conflict and peace process by a senior academic historian who has served as Israel’s ambassador to the United States and as a peace negotiator with Syria.

Rabinovich places the Arab-Israeli relationship in the larger context of Middle Eastern regional and international politics. He also examines Iran’s and Turkey’s new roles in the region. An equally important place is given to the U.S. policy in the Middle East and to the U.S. special relationship with Israel.

This revised new edition covers the signing of the Abraham Accords, the new policies pursued by the Trump and Biden administrations, the full-fledged Syrian civil war, the heyday of the Islamic State, Russia’s military intervention in Syria, the Iranian nuclear drive, and the lengthy domestic political crisis in Israel.

Join us for a discussion with Ambassador Itamar Rabinovich, author of "Middle Eastern Maze: Israel, the Arabs, and the Region, 1948-2022," followed by an audience Q&A moderated by CMED Distinguished Senior Fellow, Professor Steve Zipperstein.
