A distinguished group of Middle East
experts highlight the options for cooperation in the Triangle. The
book deals with the recent history of the peace agreements between
the Triangle parties in socioeconomic, cultural, political and psychological
perspectives. The texts are wide-ranging and represent the most
recent political ideas with respect to promoting the triangular
“partnership”.
… International relations systems
analysis sheds light on the tripolar system: Jordan is perceived
as the natural balancer and pivot, since it has maintained close
relations with the Palestinians, and simultaneously with the Zionist
movement (from the 1920s onwards). The Palestinians have yet to
benefit from playing the game of triangular politics, but the US
is perceived as pushing for this goal, notwithstanding the objectives
of the Likud party.
