Routledge Handbook on Israel's Foreign Relations

"Peters and Pinfold have put together an extremely impressive and comprehensive volume covering Israel's foreign relations from its foundation in 1948 until the present day. This wide-ranging collection contains thirty concise chapters covering Israel's relations with major global powers, whole regions of the world, and individual states in the Middle East. For any student or researcher seeking to understand the development of Israel's foreign relations, this will prove to be an indispensable guide."

"Israeli foreign policy is a topic that is frequently discussed, but not always understood. This book provides a comprehensive overview of the changing nature and dynamics of Israel's foreign relations from 1948 until the present day. In doing so, it illustrates how Israel sees the world, why it has prioritized relations with certain states, and what means it has used to build international support. Drawing on a diverse range of contributors, Pinfold and Peters' volume is a must-read for students, scholars and practitioners seeking to understand modern Israel and its place in the world."
