Episode Notes
Norman Finkelstein is a political scientist whose work focuses on the Israel-Palestine conflict. He is the author of numerous books, including Image and Reality of the Israel-Palestine Conflict and Gaza: An Inquest into its Martyrdom.
This conversation is largely about one of Professor Finkelstein’s first books: The Rise and Fall of Palestine. Published almost two decades ago, the book is based on the time Finkelstein spent in the West Bank, while the first intifada was underway.
We talked about Rise and Fall and about how the book's contents relate to what’s happening in Gaza today. Our conversation also touched on the US election results and what they might mean for Gaza and the wider region.
