The Birth of the PalestinianRefugee Problem RevisitedBenny MorrisBen Gurion University of the Negev, Israel
Benny Morris’ The Birth of the PalestinianRefugee Problem was published in 1988. Itsstartling revelations about how and why700,000 Palestinians left their homes andbecame refugees during the Arab-Israeli warin 1948 undermined traditionalinterpretations as to whether they leftvoluntarily or were expelled as part of asystematic plan. This book represents arevised edition of the earlier work,compiled on the basis of newly-openedIsraeli military archives. While the focusremains the 1948 war and the analysis ofthe Palestinian exodus, the new materialcontains more information about whathappened in Jerusalem, Jaffa and Haifa, andhow events there led to the collapse ofPalestinian urban society. It also sheds lighton the battles and atrocities that resulted inthe disintegration of rural communities.The story is a harrowing one. The refugeesnow number four million and theirexistence remains a major obstacle to peace.Cambridge Middle East Studies, 182003 228 x 152 mm 500pp 3 maps0 521 81120 1 Hardback c. £80.000 521 00967 7 Paperback c. £29.95Publication November 2003

However, KingHussein’s death, the succession of hisson, Abdullah II, and recent politicalupheavals have plunged the country
