Negotiations with Arabs

From the early 19th century, Zionists and then Israelis negotiated with Arabs in Palestine and then with Arab neighbors. Some were direct and discrete negotiations and others mediated by a third party. Our listing of materials is of course only selective and not meant to be comprehensive. The articles chosen are available online; many more exist that require access to archives, libraries, and individual journals.
