Visions for an Arab-Jewish Shared Society: Legal and Social Frameworks and Possibilities
The month of May 2021 saw a new type of violence within Israel, between Palestinian and Israeli citizens, that threatens to tear apart an already fragile society.
Masua Sagiv and Manal Totry-Jubran – two legal scholars – use their personal experience and professional expertise to explore the meaning of this new violence, the experience of Palestinian citizens in Israel, and the possibility of steps forward.
