About the Book

A fascinating insight into the 60 problematic years following the birth of an independent Israeli state, a dream that was to become a nightmare for the Indigenous Arabs; this is a must read for anyone interested in the history of the Jewish national movement, Israel and Palestine.

Born of the Guardian's close involvement with the establishment of the state of Israel, since 1914, Disenchantment documents the newspaper's first hand experiences of the middle-eastern conflict. Based on newspaper archives, correspondence files, and interviews with journalists, it details the story of how the Guardian has tried to match truthful reporting with the growing sensitivities of the Jewish community.

Previously only available in hardback, this is the ideal textbook for students seeking to understand media coverage of the Israel / Palestine solution.
