The agreements signed between Israel and the PLO are both lengthy and complicated. Because of the difficulty in fully digesting these agreements, a lucid, on-point resource in this area proves particularly valuable.

From Occupation to Interim Accords: Israel and the Palestinian Territories presents an in-depth legal analysis of the Israel/PLO agreements. Its coverage includes:

a survey and close analysis of the legal and administrative developments that took place in the Palestinian areas over the past twenty years, providing the background essential to an understanding of the agreements;

critical consideration of the negotiation process; and

a review of the post-agreement legislation; and an analysis of the legal developments in the areas under the Palestinian Authority.

Appendices supply previously unpublished military orders and proclamations, letters, and negotiation documents.
