For almost a quarter century, a "two-state solution" has been at the center of international policy toward Israelis and Palestinians. Realities on the ground, however, seem to be moving in the opposite direction. Criticism of two-state diplomacy has grown not only in the Middle East, but increasingly in Washington as well. Is the two-state solution still the most appropriate basis for policy, or are new approaches needed to address a potential one-state reality?
Join the Carnegie Middle East Program for a discussion on Palestinians' future in a one-state reality, featuring Diana Buttu, a Palestinian lawyer and analyst, Lucy Kurtzer-Ellenbogen, director of the U.S. Institute of Peace's Israel, the Palestinian Territories, and the Region program; Michael Koplow, chief policy officer of the Israel Policy Forum; and Nathan Brown, Carnegie nonresident senior fellow and professor of political science and international affairs at George Washington University. The event will be moderated by Marwan Muasher, vice president for studies at Carnegie.
