| Abstract: | In this special issue of the Mediterranean Journal of Human Rights, distinguished Israeli and Palestinian scholars explore the presence of human rights within various histories of the Israeli/Palestinian question. We hope in this way to participate in what can never be an exclusively academic search for new perspectives on this deeply disturbing conflict. Focusing on the interface between history and human rights means highlighting the ethical and political implications of the production of history, while also acknowledging that rights are never purely abstract principles and that they are created and invoked in specific historical contexts. |
