The Two-State Solution to the Israeli-Pa

This immersive, two-day workshop examines the concept of a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict through the lens of historic negotiation efforts, most notably the Camp David Summit (1999–2001). Guided by former Israeli and Palestinian negotiators, students will explore the political, legal, and narrative frameworks that have shaped these peace talks, with particular attention to the components of Palestinian statehood.

Through structured simulation, analysis of historical documents, and engagement with practitioners, the workshop will deepen students' understanding of negotiation dynamics, the role of state recognition, and the impact of historical narratives on diplomacy. Issues such as refugees, Jerusalem, security, and diplomatic recognition will be addressed only insofar as they relate to the establishment of a Palestinian state.
