The Palestinian Question

edited by Francesco Ciafaloni and Cinzia Nachira

Editorial Board: Raja Bahlul, Paola Canarutto, Mariano Mingarelli; founded by Fiamma Bianchi Bandinelli

This section aims to provide a forum for the presentation and discussion of ideas concerning the Palestinian question as considered from a legal standpoint. It includes laws, resolutions and covenants (whether national, regional or international). International relations and politics are also considered, inasmuch as they proceed (or fail to proceed) in accordance with varying degrees and notions of legality. The objective is to create a growing database of the most significant legal, political and historical documents relating to the Palestinian question.

We welcome your contributions in the form of book reviews, discussions of media coverage, and essays dealing with legal or political aspects of the Arab-Israeli conflict, as well as initiatives and proposals for conflict resolution and/or adjudication.

La finalidad de esta sección es la de ofrecer un espacio para presentar y debatir ideas relevantes para la cuestión palestina considerada desde el punto de vista jurídico. Las normas, las resoluciones y los pactos (nacionales, regionales o internacionales) están incluidos en este campo de interés. También se destacan la política y las relaciones internacionales, en la medida en que son (o no son) conformes con los distintos niveles e ideas de legalidad. La sección se propone construir una recopilación de los documentos jurídicos, políticos e históricos más importantes y que tengan una relevancia especial para la cuestión palestina.

Serán bienvenidas las contribuciones como recensiones, discusiones de las noticias difundidas por los medios de comunicación y trabajos que traten los aspectos jurídicos o políticos del conflicto árabe-israelí, así como también iniciativas y propuestas relativas a posibles decisiones o soluciones del conflicto.
