- Summary
- "This book analyses the Oslo Accords - the historic Israeli-Palestinian peace agreements. Other books have described the politics behind negotiation of the Accords; this is the first book to analyse the Accords from the standpoint of international law. Professor Geoffrey Watson argues that the Accords are legally binding agreements, not just political undertakings. He argues that both sides have a mixed record of compliance, but that neither side has committed so serious a breach as to warrant termination of the Accords. Finally, Watson suggests how international law might help shape resolution of 'final status' issues such as Jerusalem, settlements, and refugees."--Jacket.
