Summary

"Co-opting the PLO analyzes the Oslo Accords, the interim self-government agreements signed between the government of Israel and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) during the period between 1993 and 1995. Peter Ezra Weinberger makes an argument that initially appears counterintuitive - that the Oslo Accords did not signal a change in Israeli attitudes toward the Palestinians, but rather a continuation of old attitudes through a new politics of co-optation and control. In contrast to preceding analyses of Oslo, this study argues that the circumstances that developed out of the Oslo Accords cannot be wholly interpreted in realist terms as an instance of traditional power politics or shrewd statecraft."--Jacket.
